Colorado Rockies in the Fall

Our weekend adventure was a trip to Denver. It was probably one of the best trips we have taken. No family arguements, everyone got along, the weather was beautiful, what else can I say except that it is times like this that will be remembered forever!



We headed to Denver on Friday evening and spent some time at Deb and Dennis' before heading to Ted's for bed. Saturday consisted of getting up bright and early for some shopping!. Liz and Xenia went to the "big" mall while Deb, Mikaela, and I hit the craft stores. The boys....well who knows what they did except I do believe it consisted of using golf clubs.
Pics of Liz and Xenia let loose at the mall. The stories are pretty good that go with these pictures:) They had a great time.


For the afternoon we headed up the mountain to view the Colorado Rocky Mountains in the Fall. We could not have picked a better weekend to do this. The view was fabulous and the laughter and fun in the car was the best.








Pictures in the car for a family drive.

After the drive it was off to Beau Jo's pizza in Idaho Springs (this is tradition whenever we have a new member in the family) Xenia was impressed with this pizza we introduced her too.



On Sunday I took time out to go see Danielle and Chelsea as well as Brett. They are all doing wonderful and the girls had a good time visiting. It was a short visit but when you have only 1 1/2 days to get things done you have to get what you can.



On the way out of town we stopped at Boonedocks Fun Center. Here we drove go carts, played mini golf, lazer tag, and of course video games.

We were exhausted but it was well worth it. We took so many beautiful pictures that I had to download them to Walmart. Let me know if you cannot view them. I also have some great videos please enjoy.
