Happy Saturday, friends!
Peaks and Pits of the Week
Peak: The weather has become significantly more fall-like here in Boulder and I couldn’t be happier. I went on my first run in a while and it felt. so. good.
Pit: School is really ramping up, which means, unfortunately for me, that sleep is ramping down.

October 26, 2015 at 3:59 pmThank you, Laura! (I will need ALL the luck I can get 😉 ) Let’s just say I cannot wait until December… As for visiting, Colorado is bea-utiful!! I would without a doubt recommend taking a trip here, whether it’s in the summer or winter you really can’t go wrong. There’s hiking when it’s warmer and skiing/snowboarding when its colder, and the views are breathtaking in either season.

October 26, 2015 at 4:07 pmHi Hailey! Thank you so much! Moving here from Texas a few months ago, I have been craving the autumn season so badly (where I was living in TX, we didn’t really have seasons). Hopefully the good feelings will stay once the temperatures drop considerably in the winter 😉 . Thank you so much for visiting my blog!!
