Baby Moon 2 - Fall Date Day

Two of my very favorite places in Colorado are Georgetown and Breckenridge. Lucky for us they are both less than an two hours away and it makes a great day trip for us to enjoy together.

This past week I was dying to get out and see the changing of the leaves. We have yet to see a lot of color down here in the foothills so I asked Kevin to take me higher into the mountains to see the orange, yellow, and reds!

We enjoyed a quiet morning in Georgetown, about 30 minutes from us, at our favorite Old Town Soda Fountain. Kevin always loves a Cherry Coke and I love their Vanilla Rootbeers. We enjoyed walking around downtown - which consists of one main street full of shops and purchasing some cinnamon hard candy that is to die for! Afterwards we stopped by a picnic spot for a snack and some photos before heading up to Breckenridge.


When we reached Breck we walked around town for a couple hours and enjoyed the Celtic Fest that was happening and then stopped in at Whale's Tail - our most favorite happy hour spot. You can't beat the best wings ever for 50 cents each and 10 cent peel and eat shrimp and of course $2 beers that Kevin enjoyed for all of us :) We always joke that if we lived closer than the hour drive we would eat there several nights a week, it really is that good!

It was a perfect Fall Day filled with lots of our favorite things. So grateful for the time we have together and the small getaways that we can enjoy. Next time we will have Lucy along and we can't wait for her to be part of our favorite fall memories next year!
