Giant Boulders, Frozen Waterfalls, and Thanksgiving.

I wanted to share two pictures of some amazing stops along the Fern Lake Trail in Rocky Mountain National Park. We hiked it last weekend while we stayed in Estes Park and it was beautiful...absolutely perfect heading up to the lake and then snow started falling as we headed down. :) As always, these photos are from Jeremy's camera.

Estes Park is also the destination for Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday. This year will most likely be the most nontraditional celebration I've ever had but I'm so looking forward to it (by "nontraditional" I mean gumbo will be served). :) Also exciting: Jeremy and I are going to the CU-Nebraska game in Boulder on Friday!

I hope everyone has a wonderful week of Thanksgiving festivities planned! That's it for now, but I'll leave with two quotes about having a sense of wonder and thankfulness from two of my favorites...

There are only two ways to live your life: as though nothing is a miracle, or as though everything is a miracle.

-Albert Einstein

When you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky.
