My favorite Place

So, I have two favorite places in the whole world. I want to share them with you!

First, of couse, is my home! The first two pics of the slideshow is my beautiful front yard. My husband is so wonderful and planted all these beautiful flowers for me! When we first moved in 4 years ago, the flowerbeds were all gravel!! He's done such a wonderful job! He even planted some of my favotire flowers! Iris' and Columbines. Unfortunatly all the iris' are gone by summer and I didn't get any good pictures of the Columbines, but you can see all the other beautiful ones! And you can just imagine how wonderful it smells!!! We even have two hummingbirds that frequent the yard!

My second place it Ouray, Colorado. It's about 1.5-2 hours drive from here and at the base of the mountains. The town is full or cute little shops and it's common to see deer walking around! There are some really awesome waterfalls and Heather's favorite...the hot springs pool and waterslide! We head up here to camp at least once a month in good weather. We even like to go visit when it is freezing cold and the snow is REALLY deep! And go SWIMMING! It's such a beautiful town. We would live there if we could. But it's too small for a Chrysler dealership (my dh works for them, LOL!) and waaaaay to expensive to live there!

This was the second weekend in a row that we went tent camping up in the mountains there. It was so beautiful! I had a nice time taking lots of pictures. Hope you enjoy them! For some reason the slideshow is not working....so you can see it if you click here:

You have such a cute house and yard! I'm jealous! OUr yard was pretty and green when we bought our house, but now, oh...ugh. I hate it. Plus our ginourmous pine treehas died and is dumping pine needles everywhere.

I'd love to visit Ouray- we planned to spend a weekend there last year but our childcare fell through. Maybe someday!
