Oh, the sharing!

As you are packing (and I know that many of you have your bags packed and ready, counting down the minutes...oh wait, that's Carolyn), please throw in a few things to share for the weekend:

  • Bottle of your favorite wine -- yum
  • Six pack of your favorite beer -- Matt loves most any kind
  • Games -- Board games, Wii games, Scene It (Bring it on, Wes and Jeremy; Carolyn is ready for you!)
  • Snacks -- Carolyn loves any combo of salty and sweet (chocolate covered pretzels: YUM)
  • Cameras -- We want lots of great photos of the weekend...ummm, Kimbal, HT, Esther, Jeff, and Dave, that might mean you.
  • Instruments -- for our Saturday afternoon jam session. Guitars, voices, banjos, pianos and kazoos welcome!

Oh, the sharing! Thanks, friends!

Your plans for the weekend?

As we are getting the final details pulled together, we need to know your plans for the wedding weekend! Please send us an e-mail (carolynandmatt@gmail.com) when you are coming into Breckenridge, where you are staying, and which meals you'd like to join us for.

We have planned meals and good old fashioned fun for:

  • Friday night -- Eat-when-you-get-there dinner and games
  • Saturday morning -- Late morning brunch with Jim's beer pancakes
  • Saturday afternoon -- Hot chocolate happy hour and live musical entertainment/jam session
  • Saturday evening -- Wedding rehearsal, dinner, and games (all are invited for dinner and games!)
  • Sunday afternoon -- The WEDDING! followed by drinks and an early dinner

Because it is a small wedding, everyone is invited to everything! But you are not expected to come to every bit of the weekend, snowboarders especially. Just let us know what you'll be attending, so that we can plan accordingly.

Address for the Wedding

The address for the Red Eagle Lodge is:

297 State Road 628
Breckenridge, CO. 80424

FYI: The house is about 6 miles beyond the ski resort and town of Breckenridge. The roads are paved most of the way there, but the last few turns to the house are on dirt road. However, it may be pretty snow packed. We have been there in a front wheel drive vehicle and it was fine. But please do not pull down the steep drive way of the house unless you have a 4-wheel or AWD vehicle. There is some parking available on the street.
