Sister, Sister, Sister!! (posted by Lani)

Truly, having all three of us in one place was fantastic. I had the best time! Here's some photographic evidence of the fun that was had:

On Saturday we went to Estes Park. It was gorgeous, the weather was perfect, and the sun was BRIGHT. We walked, we shopped, we ate lunch, we talked and laughed -- it was great.

On Sunday we hung out at home, made homemade pasta which was both harder and easier than I thought it would be and every bit as delicious as I had hoped, and generally enjoyed ourselves. Here's photographic evidence, complete with Ann chopping cucumbers with a kukri, which Ethan actually purchased from Nepal and gave to Steve last Christmas. She scorned our knives, which I have to admit are about as sharp as cement blocks and need to be replaced. Fortunately, the kukri has a blade like a razor.





And finally, for Ann and Charlotte, here's a picture of the art I bought in Estes finally hanging on the wall. I'm probably going to tweak the hanging position a little bit, but at least it's up! And yes, Charlotte, I went back for the table AND the vase ... you had to know that was happening.





We are so doing this every year from now on. We could even go stay at the cottage and relive our teenage years ... what a shame the Miracle Strip closed down!
