  • Fly Like an Eagle

    Usually when we go to Colorado, we split our time between Colorado Springs and Denver in order to spend time with both sides of the family. One of my most favorite places to visit is the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. It’s really a beautiful place and sets high up in the foothills. The chapel at the academy is especially stunning.

    We ended up having a pretty busy weekend this week. The Architect’s parents came down and took us out for dinner to celebrate the Architect’s birthday. Afterward, we met some of his friends in DC at a place called The Brickskeller. It has a massive selection of beer although sadly the first couple beers that the Architect and I asked for they didn’t have. Afterwards, we came back to the house and hung out. It had been awhile since we saw this set of friends so there was quite a bit of catching up to do. This morning after breakfast, we all took a run down to Ikea. There were a few in the group who had never been there so they were in love with the place!

    This weekend flew by and I’m so not ready to go back to work tomorrow. Summer classes are winding down, which I’m thankful for. I’ll be taking three classes as well as working full time in the fall. I’m just happy to have that squared away! That’s pretty much all that’s new here.

    What’s new with you all?
