Adventures in Colorado

We decided to go visit Aunt Bev and Uncle Larry in Colorado Springs...it was a fun and memorable trip! We got to see our awesome cousins, Tyler, Anna and Jonathan an we hung out with Molly and Elijah, too! After landing in Colorado to unseasonably warm weather, we feared our "trip to the snow" would not happen....but it began to snow our first day there and it did not stop the rest of the trip! It was snowing while we took off from the Denver International Airport on Monday afternoon!

We made many memories...watching snow fall, playing pool, wrestling, skiing, great food at Hacienda, questionable food at Casa Bonita (questionable everything) and so much more....we also now know we can never move to Colorado....they do not sell liquor at grocery stores (say what??) Oh, and Larry, we love your BIG DECK!!!

Thanks Bev and Larry- it was a trip we will never forget!
