I wore this dress (on sale!) and these shoes (blast from the past, upgraded) throughout my Colorado family vacation last week. It was the perfect swing one complete piece I could throw on and go. Dress it up or down, though I wore it mostly dressed down since I was in Colorado...
My family (my parents, sister, husband and kiddos) and I went to Vail, CO over the 4th of July holiday week and then my husband, kids and I ended the week in Denver (where my sister lives), visiting some friends. I love Colorado in the summer, and we come often - but this was my first time to Vail (holy smokes, sooo pretty). It was such a nice place to come with kids, too, which I was surprised about.
I'll share more about what we did throughout our trip in a separate post to come soon, but wanted to share some photos of the night we celebrated my mom's big 60th birthday! We went to dinner in Vail Village at Vendetta's (Italian restaurant) which was so good. We walked around this adorable village (as we did most nights) both before and after dinner. The weather was so perfect, the kids loved all the fountains and statues, and I loved the flowers that were everywhere.
It must have been all that pure mountain air, but this particular night (and really the whole trip!), the kids were nuts! Nora was hilariously dancing around the Village like a wild child. They just had so much energy, and had so much fun (and got way off of any sort of normal sleep schedule that we're still working to get back on...). You can see proof of some of this behavior below, and more pictures of my current favorite dress. :)
