The Stancels' Story

I haven't had this blog for very long & I've already gotten behind on my posts... oops! The biggest thing we've done so far this summer has definitely been our trip to Colorado, so I'll share about that! Me, Jordan, My mom & dad, my sister & my brother-in-law went on the trip for my half Aunt, Kirsten's wedding. We began in Beaver Creek Colorado. We stayed at the Pines Lodge & our stay there was fantastic! We had a great view from our room & only a 5 minute walk into the little town for breakfast, lunch or whatever else we needed.







While we were there, we did plenty of hiking and biking. We rode the chair lift up to the top of the mountain and hiked some of the trails one day, and another day we biked down the mountain twice.






The wedding was BEAUTIFUL! It was held outside at Beano's Cabin; what a memorable event!




My aunt, Kirsten & her dad, my grandpa.







The day after the wedding, we headed to the Rocky Mountain National Park. We stayed in a cabin & did lots of hiking in the National Park. Here are some of the stunning views we saw...










Me, Jordan, my sister & brother-in-law hiked up Estes Cone, about 11,000 feet. It was a really challenging hike which ended with us climbing up rocks hand over hand, but the views were BREATHTAKING!







This was definitely a very, very memorable trip!!!
