Top 5 TV

The past few years, TV shows seem to have become more fun for Matt and I to watch than movies.  And they are so easy to access these days...  Here are our top 5 favorites at the moment. (In order)

5. Downton Abbey


Matt won't admit it, but he loves it!



4. 30 Rock


I know it's over, but we've recently discovered it and watched the entire thing.



3. Once Upon a Time













I think I'm in love with Captain Hook.




2. Community


One word:  HILARIOUS!



1. Castle


Best show ever.  I love crime, humor, and romance and this show has all 3.




What are your favorite TV series?

birthday fun

My Mom and sister were able to come to town last week for Matt's 25th birthday and to have some fun with us here in CO.

We tried out the amusement park Elitch Gardens and had a blast even though we were soaked by a water ride early in the day.  They didn't really tell us how wet we would get, but it should have clued us off when the ride attendant asked if we wanted to take off our shirts.  We had a great time even if we were wet the whole day!

We also went to Oskar Blues for Matt's birthday dinner. They gave Matt a HUGE birthday sundae that was obviously made by the young men that brought it out.





We also went to downtown Boulder which is always an adventure.  We saw street musicians, jugglers, human statues, and many other eccentric people.

Happy birthday to my amazing husband!

Beuatiful Colorado

Our new home state is BEAUTIFUL! Not only do the mountains seem much prettier from this side, the weather has been amazing as well.  I am in love with the scenery and the warm summer days with cool nights.  We have had a couple of storms, and the most recent one left us this little present right outside our door.



What a beautiful place to life!

Coloradans

Matt and I are now officially Coloradans.  Our new apartment is a little bigger, and much more homey! My only complaint is the lack of storage space.

Here's a little tour of our new comfy place.

Our bedroom is a little messy still so maybe I'll post pictures later, but here is our awesome closet!

We like it a lot, and we are in such a great neighborhood.  And we have a apartment pool!

New Stuff!

Matt and I have made lots of grown up purchases lately.  Including a couch... And a CAR!!!

2012 Nissan Versa

It was actually kinda scary signing all those papers, but I really like the new member of our car family.  Now, what shall we name it?

Washington D.C.

We had a super fun trip out east after I finished out the school year.  We got to visit Matt's parents and visit all the awesome site in Washington D.C.

Downtown we saw all the awesome buildings from our history.
The Captiol:

I think that's Robert E. Lee

This building was amazing!







Other sites and memorials:



The Washington Monument was under construction


National Archives

FBI building!



Cool Korean War Memorial

Lincoln!







Matt and Teddy R.

Eleanor

Jefferson


We also went to Fort Washington!






And a cool plantation!

Matt wanted to buy it




And saw the Waldorf Blue Crabs play a game of ball.  We sat right behind the pitchers and I listened to  their conversations ;)





So glad I got to go visit our nation's capitol! I had a blast! And I'm sure Matt did too!
