vailcation 2011

better late than never, right?

a few weeks ago we loaded up some precious cargo {our child} and headed for the hills... or mountains to be more exact. this is the fourth time we've flown with campbell in her short little life and she is quite the pro. we've got the whole thing down to a meticulous system. mat had a medical conference in vail (i could REALLY get use to this traveling for conference business... i'm searching for some conferences in hawaii. or the virgin islands. or really anywhere warm with a beach.) anyways, our vailcation coordinated with my brother's vacation and with his girlfriend's vacation so we had a wonderful time together. mat went to conferences in the morning then skied with marshall & katie in the afternoon. i did the usual stay at home mom thing...only in vail. and may or my not have have enjoyed a spiked hot coocoa. not too shabby if you ask me.

 here's a few of our pictures of a fantastic few days.

Our friends DJ & Amy and Mat's parents joined us for dinner the first night

Did you know that a goober stand cures the hiccups? True Story.

Post Goober stand.

view from my run through east vail.
definitely made running in the mountains worth the lack of oxygen

I call this
