We’re Moving to Denver!

The title pretty much sums up this post.  My husband’s job is moving us to Denver, Colorado next month and I am really freaking stoked for this adventure.

Denver, travel, blog, Colorado, fashion

For the first time in my life, I’m going to live outside of the DFW area which is an area that I LOVE and I’ve racked up the most epic support system of family and friends but lately I’ve been itching for some new scenery and Denver has been on my shortlist of places to live since I visited with my husband (then boyfriend) in 2006.

Scott and I in Breckenridge, CO in 2006 when we decided we’d retire there one day.

This move is an answered prayer for a variety of reasons and just happens to jive really well with a project that I’ve been planning for close to a year now–a blog about family adventure/travel/playing. We are really looking forward to living in a travel destination and skiing a LOT and I can’t wait to document this whole adventure.

Now that I’ve gotten that off my chest, I do plan to blog as much as I can, I’ve just been consumed/excited about this move and unable to focus on much else.

Here’s to the Rocky Mountain Rowekamps!  It’s going to be an exciting summer.

What We Wore: Easter 2013

Easter is one of my favorite holidays. It combines the remembrance of resurrection with the joy of rebirth and celebration of spring.  It is also time to get dressed up in our fanciest frocks, fellowship with loved ones, and  blossom in our own lives.

A man who was completely innocent, offered himself as a sacrifice for the good of others, including his enemies, and became the ransom of the world. It was a perfect act. ~Mahatma Gandhi

About those fancy frocks…..here are ours (in case you haven’t seen me in awhile, I got new hair).
