Coppin Family Website: G&G Coppin come for a visit

On Sunday Joel's parents called to see if it would be OK to come over the weekend to visit. They were on their way to Wisconsin to a brewery/golfing vacation and wondered if they could see us...... I know what you are thinking, Wisconsin via Colorado?? Anyway, they came on Friday afternoon just in time for Joel and I to take off to Colorado Springs for Hilary Schutt's wedding. It was perfect, they could spend time withe kids and we got a free night out!

Hilary and Angus had a beautiful outdoor wedding. The weather turned out for them as it had been raining and cold all day. Congratulations!!!! It was a great surprise also to see an old college girlfriend, Heidi, that I hadn't seen in 6 yrs! Another great note from the night is that I saw a gal from high school that I hadn't seen in 10 years. To make short, we had been friends then things happened and were not. It was so nice to be able to put the past in the past and we both said our apologies and life moves on. Looking back, it all was too bad that it happened because we could have been friends this whole time. I guess you live and learn and somethings are just not worth a grudge! Life is too short!!

Saturday morning Momma wasn't feeling so good! Let's just say I had fun Friday night. But I did buck up and we went to Boulder to the Avery Brewery. Yes, our daughter is named after the brewery. Long story is that I had picked out the name Avery right when we knew she was a girl. We were in Boulder with Joel's brother Jamie and his girlfriend Angie when we went to the brewery last October. Joel fell in love with the beer and the name. So we joke that she was name after the brewery. We had so much fun and they were so great to us. We got a big Avery metal sign and everything. That evening we went out for dinner and crashed! Sunday came and Joel's parents left. Thanks so much for everything and have a great trip!

Here are some pictures from the last week:
