First fourteener!

I have a love-hate relationships with 14,000 ft peaks.  I love the challenge but when i am completely out of breath and been climbing for over three hours i just want to see the top . I'm not sure that in this instance of life its about the journey in this instance its all and i mean ALL about the  destination the view from the top, the majesty of being above the world, feeling like im in the clouds ahhh its always worth the climb. We tried on our one year anniversary to climb to Mt. Princeton and thought we were close we got up to our hips in snow and both were wearing shorts, little did we know we were no where close to the top. We came back on July 4th and made it to the top. Once we got there our goal was to climb every fourteener in Colorado then we found out there are 54... in light of that discovery we are thinking 14 fourteeners sounds catchy :)
We have since then summitted two more.  For now here are pictures and a little clip of our two adventures up mt. Princeton.

 see very much in the clouds on top of the world .....
