This Thanksgiving, our family traded the usual hustle and bustle for something a little more meaningful: a quiet getaway to the mountains of Colorado. In our little cabin in Divide, we found exactly what we were searching for—uninterrupted time together, serene surroundings and crisp mountain air.
The setting was stunning and incredibly relaxing. The perfect amount of snow fell and the kids and dogs played outside, laughing, running, and soaking up the magic of it all. Inside, we stayed cozy and warm, and watched sooo many Christmas movies! I felt like a little Betty Crocker because I’m typically not a cook but I really had fun leaning into it this trip. No stress or pressure. For thanksgiving, Blake cooked a prime rib and I made an apple pie, mashed potatoes and macaroni (for the kids, of course haha).
There was something special about slowing down—no rushing, no noise—just family time the way it’s meant to be. This trip really filled my cup and it was one for the books. I left feeling so much gratitude and love.
It was perfect in every way, and a reminder of how powerful it can be to step away, reconnect, and truly be present with the people you love most.
