My soon to be official in-laws have arrived for wedding festivities! They landed yesterday morning, early enough to have lunch with Gene (I was stuck in meetings) and run around Denver. I saw them in the evening where we made lentil tacos, went on a walk, and played a game.

While I was at work, my coworkers and team surprised me with a little wedding celebration party. I had no idea they were planning this, it truly took me by surprise, so much so that I was in a bit of shock. I felt so incredibly loved. There were so many people there, even people from my old athletic days! They had a cake for me and gave me presents (I have a really cool picnic basket now!). What I really liked was that they all wrote down their favorite recipes and gave them to me in a recipe box. It was so thoughtful and amazingly caring. I’m still in shock a day later.
