Watch it wiggle, see it jiggle, it’s Jello brand gelatin. Jello is such a fun and easy dessert. Fancy Jello desserts make their appearance every year during the holidays but they are sometimes forgotten the rest of the year in our house. If you’re looking to get your kids involved in the kitchen, making Jello…

Tiger Run RV Resort
After hearing people rave about Tiger Run RV Resort for what seemed like decades, we decided it would be our home base for our time in Breckenridge. We were not disappointed. Not at all. Tiger Run is one of those ownership campgrounds, kind of like an organized VRBO for campsites. We’ve stayed at a similar…
Pikes Peak
Our first Fourteener! By car so it doesn’t count. This excursion was not going to be cut from our trip. When we started planning our trip we planned on taking the cog railway up to the top and were supremely bummed when we found out they company closed due to the age of the railway. …
Balsamic Chicken
My friend Tracy sent me this delicious recipe a couple of years ago. We had it several times and then, like far too many recipes, it fell off of our radar. It shouldn’t have because not only is it really good, it’s also really easy. I had this great coupon for red potatoes and this…
Caprese Sandwich
I can’t believe our Italy trip was almost five years ago. It was such a great trip. And the food! I could go on and on for days about the fabulous food we had. One thing we fell in love with was the Caprese Salad. We had it with dinner on our first night in…
Kayak Dillon Reservior
Our last day in Breckenridge was a little more tame than the previous days. Tame in the way that we didn’t use the alarm clock to start our day, yeah. We gave our bodies extra time to sleep after our huge hike up Quandary Peak the day before. Our gloriously late sleep in was followed…
Quandary Peak!
As I sit here typing, I can’t believe we hiked a Fourteener last week. By reading about our adventures, you’ve already figured out we are a little extreme in our activities. Our friends call us X-Games and short a few hospital visits, we’ve earned the nickname. Hiking a Fourteener has been a dream of Mark’s…
Independence Day
Today we celebrate the birth of our great nation. Happy 242nd Birthday America!
Firecracker Bars
Independence Day is a time to celebrate the birth of our great country. We celebrate with parades, fireworks and great summertime food. While apple pies, cherry pies and ice cream are tops on the list, these sugar cookie bars are giving the traditional favorites a run for their money. They are tasty, RV friendly and…
