H, A, double L, O, W, double E, N, that’s Halloween. This is a Halloween song I remember from childhood. Every time I write or type the word Halloween, I sing that tune in my head. Seriously – every time. We are in full Halloween mode around here at alice & lois. Today, I am…
These witch’s hats are the perfect party favor for your Halloween party this year. We loved creating these for Minted’s beautiful blog, Julep. You can make these ahead of time and stuff with treats for each child, or better yet, have this be your craft project at the party. Kids will love folding the cones,…
post by Melissa It is so unbelievably beautiful in Crested Butte right now. The aspens are on fire with golds, oranges and pops of red. We’re trying to spend as much time as possible outside taking it all in. Hikes, bike rides, after-school picnics in the backcountry… Follow along on Instagram for more pics of…
post by Melissa It’s the season to get healthy. As we wrote this week in our Fall Wellness Kick Off, it’s time to put our health and fitness on the top of the list. So why not start with breakfast? I find myself in a breakfast rut quite a bit. Toast one day, oatmeal the…

post by Melissa Make wellness a priority. There, I said it. And I’ll say it again. Make wellness a priority. Since having kids, it seems like I have to repeat this to myself over and over. As mothers we put everyone else’s needs above our own. This fall, now that school is back in session,…

post by Melissa This past weekend, we took a trip over Kebler Pass from Crested Butte to Paonia, Colorado. It is only a little over an hour drive, but it’s worlds apart. Paonia lies in the fruit belt of the Western Slope. Peach, apple, cherry and pear trees dot the landscape along with grape vines….
post by Melissa Happy Friday, everyone! What a week… Elk Avenue is still blue after last weekend’s Bud Light Whatever, USA event. It was amazing to see it all take shape creatively and organizationally, people had the best time of their lives. But it’s also nice to have Crested Butte back to good ole Crested…
post by Melissa Fall is upon us and what says fall more than homemade caramel sauce? One of my favorite treats is to dip apple slices in this amazing caramel.
