"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences." — Gordon B. Hinckley

Aspen Home (Inside)

We had an amazing getaway to the
Aspen house. We we able to "camp out"
in a $30 million house, a night to remember.
This is the movie theater in the lower level of the house.
It seats 10 friends, all seats have a great view!!
Doesn't get much better them this, pillows, blankets and
all the treats you can eat!!
The theater controls can be sent to any of the
televisions throughout the house, in case you
want to watch the movie in bed instead!!
Entrance to the movie theater.
This is just one of the many fireplaces in the house, this
one was really cool, when it's turned on it starts from
left to right, really beautiful!


Same fireplace with the lights on.

This is the "bar" at the bottom of the staircase.

The view coming down the staircase.
View from the lower level up the staircase.


Upstairs view of the staircase, it is so beautiful,
the pictures don't do it justice, the clear glass makes
it seem as if its free floating.


My favorite part of the house, this is the wall of windows.
These windows fold into themselves opening up completely
to allow the outside in, the upper patio is just as beautiful.

This is the view of the kitchen near the wall of windows.


This is the other end of the kitchen. The far wall is
a beautiful built in self. The wood is very dark and
elegant, it is made from Knotty Alder. Again the
pictures don't do justice to the beauty of the work.

Standing in the door way of the kitchen.
The lights in the dining room look like
a tree limb with light on the tips, very
beautiful.
This is the ceiling and light fixture in the
great room. The door on the far right
goes out to the patio, the two doors on the
sides of the fireplace go to into
the dining room and the hall to the kitchen.
This is the other end of the great room.
The hallway on the left goes to the master wing.
The door on the right goes out to the upper patio.

This is the amazing hallway from the master bedroom
to the kitchen. Very long.

This picture is taken from the master bedroom into the
master sitting area. Again this room also has the built in
shelves. They are huge and so beautiful.
This is the tub in the master bathroom
on the right side is the vanity area and on the
left is the shower.
This whole wall is the master shower.
It has two glass doors, 4 shower heads, his and hers, a
"normal" shower head on the wall and then a rain shower head
coming out of the ceiling. You can control you own
water temperature on the dial, and if that's not warm enough
there is a steamer to add to the relaxation. Plus a bench in the middle
to sit or lay on that is also heated.
This shower is 16X7.
Absolutely amazing!! The tile work on the back
wall was so beautiful!
His and her vanity.


On the lower level of the house there are 4 bedrooms with
there own bathrooms, the following are the bathrooms, all the
bathrooms are different from each other, plus there are
three half baths throughout the house as well.





If you can't tell I am very proud of Ward and the
hard work he has put into making this house.
He was able to use all of his talents and developed new ones
as well. When we were at the house Raychel was sitting outside
looking at the house and said, "My dad helped build this, I am so
proud of him!"
