WE’RE HEADED TO COLORADO FOR A MINI VACAY  We’re totally excited and have been planning for just a few days. And didn’t actually know if it was really happening until 8:00 tonight. But it’s on! Gotta love being married to a guy that is totally stoked to pack it up at the last second and bust out of Ohio. 

I will be working on the way down. (ya, we’re totally driving the ENTIRE trip with no overnights.) So if you’re expecting your post-holiday set of photos or galleries on the 4th, there will be no delays. 

You can reach me via email or phone on Wednesday 12/30. Then busy skiing, snowboarding, snowshoe hiking, ice skating, dining, watching the OSU game, and snuggling up to a fire with Matt in a warm little house in Evergreen. I’ll be back in the office on 1/4 with lots of pictures.  

Think we packed enough granola?

AND HOPE YOU HAD A RELAXING, THOUGHTFUL AND FAMILY-FILLED CHRISTMAS!!! 

I left my camera at the house after the Gray family Christmas. But I have photos from tonight’s Mt. Vernon Christmas with the Byrdy’s. Of course I shoot people opening their gifts to catch their face, but sometimes the best face is of the one giving the gift!

Mel wins best gift-giver face…

Mike wins best gift-getter face. This was him opening his new OSU stuff to proudly display on his desk at work in Huntsville, AL.

Jim (matt’s dad) couldn’t keep his hands off his Stauf’s coffee.

Then things got a little trashed

Fun times at the Byrdy Christmas.

Now that gifts have been opened and our bellies are stuffed with Karen’s homemade wedding soup, the fire is blazing and we’re sitting down for a movie. Great night… hope yours is lovely too:)
