Colorado Springs Outing

A couple of weeks ago we went on a mini road trip to Colorado Springs. Mike lived there in his single years for a summer and was excited to show us around. We first stopped at the Garden of the Gods. It was amazing and the kids has a great time running around and jumping off of all the boulders.

We kept Davis contained for a little while in the back pack but it didn't take long until he was out running around with the rest of the kids.

Probably not the smartest thing jumping between rocks with your 2 year old on your back but Davis loved it!

Michael trying to tell us how BIG the rocks are. We spent so much time here we didn't have a lot of time left before we needed to drive home so we just went to see Mike's old place of employment The Broadmoor.  Its a huge resort with three golf courses. It was super fancy and fun to look around everywhere although we didn't really fit. Maybe someday we will! Sorry no pics of this- I wish I had because it was an amazing resort.

I love all of the pics, what a cool background for it. Love the last pic of Michael, you caught just how he looks when he's trying to tell ya something important, I miss that!
Did you cut Davis's hair? If so we need pics sans hat :)

we will be there this weekend...i am nervous that we won't have to to meet up, but I will keep you posted on times and possibilities.

Oh, and is it possibly time to change your blog header? You are a pro at websites now, it should be so easy! :)

It is a beautiful spot. We went last summer together with most of our kids.
Thank you Amber & Mike for a wonderful dinner! We enjoyed seeing you and your sweet kiddos on our trip. It was so nice of you to invite us all over!
