Colorado Fun

Today we got a lazy start to our fun Colorado day with the Benak Family.  We started out at Staunton State Park for a hike but the weather was not that cooperative and a storm was very threatening.

Harper on the trail.

EB and Tate.

All the kids!

Peter with the dark sky behind him.

Tate and Nicholas literally talked the entire hike.  


EB and Mia.  

The boys!

EB on a rock!

We stopped at Hoosier overlook but it was so so cold we lasted only a few minutes and never even got to see the overlook!


Off to Breckenridge

The kids all ready to ride the gondolas.  It was so cold, it was crazy.

How cool is this chalkboard?

Tate super excited for the ride.

The kids in the gondola.  Check out the view

At the top!




There were tons of fun, expensive things to do at the top and the kids all agreed on the Alpine Slide.  We let them go up alone.  It was a big leap of faith but they rocked it!

EB and Fisher.

Tate and Harper.

Peter was not having any of it.  He was cold and tired and sat in a chair.

Harper, Fisher and EB!  Where is Tate?

Harper

Fisher and EB!

Finally Tate.  We should have known.  He barely made it down the mountain he kept braking.  He was at least 5 minutes behind the others.  When he finally arrived he had a backlog of at least 10 riders behind him.

He is very serious and not so sure.
That is a long Alpine Slide and the kids LOVED it and would have all gone again.

How fun is this group shot?

The boys being silly.

Loved all the beautiful flowers around the town.



Fisher cannot get enough of Mia.  So very cute.
