Keystone with Small Group

This past weekend we went to Keystone with our small group from church. Keystone is about 15 minutes from Breckenridge. Kyle & Jen invited us up to Kyle's parents home in the mountains. It was a fun weekend for all of us and a relaxing getaway! We originally thought it would be warm and we would go hiking and be outdoorsy. But it snowed...it happens in the mountains in May...and instead we played a lot of games and just hung out together. A great way to spend the weekend!

Andrew and Craig's birthdays were less than a week apart so we celebrated on Friday night. That german chocolate cake was Andrew's request...Matt had no complaints about that as it is also his favorite kind of cake too!

Taking a walk around Keystone. It is a cute town. Everything was closed down between the ski season and summer season.

Here are each of the couples:

Kyle & Jen are also expecting. Jen is about 7 weeks behind me. So she is around 16 weeks. Malachi is going to be very jealous in October! :)

The boys playing the Wii. This is when they are canoeing. Matt must take after his mom...because he won!

The girls playing the 3 point challenge. Dale was hilarious here...I couldn't stop laughing...and neither could she!

Sunday morning getting the place back to normal. We are such lucky girls...look at our husbands all working in the kitchen!

A shot on the way home to see if our camera still works. It kind of took a spill on the hard tile. The camera seems to have survived, one of the lenses did not. Very thankful the camera is still in working condition!

It looks like you had such fun together. And the place looks like a very nice spot. Yes, it would be good for a family vacation. You don't look very pregnant at all in any of the pictures Sonya. Can't wait to see you both.

Matt and Sonya said...

Yes..it was fun! And I'm glad that it meets your approval for a vacation spot. I think you guys would love it! I promise you that you will be able to see the belly in it's full glory when you are out here :) Pictures can be deceiving.

Looks like fun, although I don't know about the snow!! Did the lab make you miss TwoSocks Matt? Looks like a nice dog. We are waiting very impatiently for the weekly belly pics Sonya. I'll make you a deal - you put up belly pics and I'll do graduation pics!

Matt said...

Yeah he definitely made me miss TwoSocks! It was fun to see him enjoying being outside so much. It made me want another dog. I told Sonya that when our child is old enough to take care of a pet we are going to get a big dog.
