I was thrilled to attend Mobile World Congress in Barcelona with the Microsoft Lumia Connects team this year. Most of my time was spent learning about tech, but we managed to grab one afternoon for serious sightseeing. The Sagrada Família Catholic Church designed by Antoni…

We had snow again this week, but such is Spring in Denver. The cool thing about our weather is our ski resorts have snow later but the skies still manage to be blue and half the time people riding the slopes are only in light…

Vacation Fog

We have been up at Keystone for almost a week now but it feels like a year. We really needed a vacation. While this has been a sponsored trip, we have just relaxed. You know that kind of relaxing? Where you *literally* cannot remember what day it is? I only know it is Thursday because on Tuesday my whole family SWORE it was Thursday and we all checked our devices to make sure. Today is Thursday. I am almost positive. Humans clearly created vacation to give their mind a rest. Even if we are doing non-restful things (like in the case of Bryan, who has been snowboarding his brains out), sometimes we just need to remove our brain from everyday life, do something different, think about other things. That way you appreciate where you are while vacationing, but also appreciate your regular life more too.

What a difference a few weeks make here in Colorado. At the end of February, we visited the YMCA of the Rockies' Winter Park location, Snow Mountain Ranch. We were up to our knees in snow - although, granted - it was our "dry snow," where my kid…

Win Your Dream Mexico Wedding Vacation from Palace Resorts

We have vacationed in Mexico many times; we love the Cancun and the Yucatan Peninsula. Especially for us here in Denver, it's such a quick flight - we try and go as often as we can. This April, I will turn 45 and this May, we will celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary. Both of those numbers make me feel very old. Although with age comes wisdom, right? I loved our small wedding here in Colorado, surrounded by family and friends... but if I could do it over, one idea that would be high on my list? Getting everyone to meet us in Mexico. My friends at Palace Resorts and Weddings by Funjet understand how that might seem daunting, and are having a fabulous contest right now (valued at more than $40,000!) where the winners will have their dream wedding at the amazing Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort - including photos, flights for up to 8 guests, luxe accommodations, $1,500 in credits and more.

Our weather can be really strange here in Colorado. The temperatures yo-yo all the time, and generally most people think Denver is an arctic tundra. The thing is, it's usually not that cold and it's the mountains (1-2 hours west) that get all the snow.…

Costa Rica Hot Springs at Tabacon Resort

When I attended ROAR Retreat recently, I stayed an extra few days with my friend, client and co-organizer of the conference Andrea. I thought we were going actually work, but she had other plans. She insisted there is no way I could visit Costa Rica…
