Bicycles, Sunrise, and Crunchy Leaves.

Woke up this morning cold and loving it. It was 34 degrees when I woke up and Denver, CO was in a frost advisory. I am pretty sure that being a December baby has a lot to do with my love for fall, and of course winter. Sipping a cup of coffee and enjoying the chilly sunrise from the 7th floor of our building was a perfect way to begin Monday.


Yesterday George and I spent a lazy Sunday enjoying the sunshine, napping, and cooking. We got our hairs did and I also got a bicycle! We spent part of the afternoon with our friend, and hair guru, Abby. She gave George a fresh new hair cut and put some feathers in my hair. She is wonderful company and also has a pretty cute pug, Deuce. Well to go off on a short tangent-- George has been trying to find a bike that fits me. Since I am short, I needed a 47 or something even smaller. It has been quite the voyage, but Abby gave me her old Schwinn that has was sitting on her balcony! The frame was too short for her, so she let me inherit it! It is vintage and perfect. I can't wait for the husband to re-build it for me and get it cleaned up. 
Looks like we need to make another trip to REI for a bike rack!
Our entry will soon be nothing but bicycles, fine with me!





Cheers to great friends, a new bike, and the beginning of another great week!

Happy Monday!
xo, wife.

Saturday and Sunday: My favorite days of the week.

Well I'm here to update you on the rest of the weekend.

Saturday Lee and I took out the bikes to tour Denver.  We rode around for quite a while and me being me, I had to snap some photographs:





Is it unsafe to photograph and ride? Probably, but I definitely love the way they turn out.  After riding around and getting a little toasty we decided to bike over to Great Divide Brewery and get some free samples!  


Mmm it's the 'Claymore Scotch Ale'


Sunday is our favorite day by far, we both have the day off work and it's always our day to go do something.  This week, Lee flew home, so we went to the park and lounged in the shade and had a little picnic.  Sometimes the best thing you can do is just simplify your life and we both needed it.
