Colorado 2014

Well for the first time in a long time, I am excited! Yesterday while putting the finishing touches on our Colorado trip I came across the Stanley Hotel. For those of you not familiar with this hotel, it is the one they used in the filming of The Shining. I immediately went on and booked a beautiful expensive room for two night there. Of course my thinking when trying to calm my husband down on the price shock was........ this is a priceless visit. How many times will we be near the Stanley Hotel? Of course I have booked the ghost tour and they play The Shining 24/7 on one of the channels on the t.v. Could it possible get any better? Here are a few pictures I pulled off the internet.






I am also excited about visiting Pagosa Springs. We are staying at a resort there and it has 23 hot springs you can go soak in. Here are a few pictures of it.....






Since we are going to be gone for 8 days, I still have a few other things brewing for this trip. Unfortunately we cancelled our trip to Dallas for our four year anniversary. After talking last night, we decided to pour our money into this trip instead.


TTC news:

Yesterdays appointment went fine. Looks like I will have 4-5 follicles for our iui this month. I have my IVIG treatment Friday. My lining was 8.5 on cd7 which totally rocked!

    1. They are trying to keep the main hotel as historic as possible therefore no ac, but we will be going in May and average temps are 65 degrees.

    1. Oh I am not brave at all :) I always think it is a great idea until the sun goes down. Same thing happened when we stayed at Basin Hotel in Eureka Springs .
