STEAMBOAT SPRINGS COLORADO TO VISIT TRAVIS

My mom and I went out to steamboat. From windy roads through Estes Park to tubing down the rocky river to hiking in the mountains to horseback riding, this was definit a trip to remember! Thanks Trav for letting us stay at your place! It was sooo much fun!

Horseback Riding on Little Red! Travis's horse kept wanting to puch me off the path!

Coming back from climing in the waterfalls! Travis gives me a heart attack everytime he climbs!

Tubing with Mom and some of Trav's awesome friends!

LAST VISIT TO ST. MARYS

So I wanted to visit friends one last time for Spain. There were two people in particualr I wanted to see before the summer ended...and both of them surprised me. I was so surprised I felt tears coming. It meant so much to me to see my roomie Amanda again!
