Colorado- Labor Day

So I headed up to Colorado a couple weeks ago for a long weekend to see my parents.

(which like 90% of you were vastly aware of, but hey, why not reiterate?)

After all is said and done, I've concluded that this state is the gold medal finalist of America.

Also, during my stay I looked through some old boxes and found all of my old phones! We've come a long way. Unfortunately, yes, that second one does have a mirror on the front which did nothing to help the fact that in high school I went through a minor narcissistic phase... don't act like you didn't too

We also went on a super long, but really beautiful hike Saturday morning. Shout out to DBU; I didn't even get winded after the 2 hour trek north. Which consequently, my glutes enjoyed.

Then headed over to Boulder which I'm very much in love with. That town is so... cultural? There were a ton of street performers, artists and musicians. I just fell head over heels. I'm secretly a hippie, but I keep that on the dl. There was this adorable candy shop and the colors were to die for.

Okay so these pictures kind of suck but it was so bright, and you can't really blame us for being human. But those are my parents; the Caliri gene runs strong. We went to the beach that morning and there were dogs everywhere, running and jumping in the sand and the waves. Makes you wish you had no responsibilities either. 

And then, the most beautiful plane ride back to Texas.
