Shelley and Erik drove in from Crested Butte to celebrate with us! They spent Friday night in Colorado Springs with Shelley's folks, then left Avery and Owen there and spent Saturday night in Denver by themselves! They stayed at the reception hotel and drove back down to the Springs on Sunday. It was so nice to see them, but it was for such a short time!

Shelley with Michelle and Todd.

Here's Jebb, Erik, and Bill, who didn't take long to find the open bar once we got to the reception!

Jebb is a friend of Shelly, Todd, and Bill's from their DU undergraduate years...he was at Shelley's weddings and has met us up in Crested Butte a time or two for the 4th. He lives in California now, where he left his 7-mo-pregnant wife Michelle and their 3 year old daughter; we were sorry we couldn't meet them this time. He also was a groomsman for Todd, as you might tell from Bill and Jebb's matching ties!

And Erik is Shelley's sweetie, of course!
