Colorado Trip

We went on a short and sweet family vacation in Colorado.  I had a conference for work during the week and Matt, the brave soul that he is, drove out with the kiddos to meet me.  We stayed one night in Denver and went to the Aquarium that was close to the hotel.  We were super impressed with it and the fact they also had 4 tigers there.  We got there right at feeding time so that was fun to watch.  The next day we drove up to Ft. Collins where we met up with Matt's two brothers and their families.  


Horsetooth Reservior near Ft. Collins.  So pretty!



Fun group!  We love you guys!!

Then it was up to Grand Lake where the whole crew stayed at Uncle Terry's cabin.  We were treated with his famous baked pancakes and Colorado oatmeal...YUM!  

Gavin's first hike and Carter's second hike to the same place, Lost Lake.


Shadow Mountain Lake...only about 55 degrees...BRRR!!


Mmmmm...smores!!

Thanks for letting our rambunctious group stay with you, Uncle Terry!!!
