Colorado Trip Feb. '10

The girls and I were able to go to Colorado this February for a special trip to see Great Grandpa Jack (visiting M&D there). All the kids gathered for Grandpa's 85th b-day party and some fun up at Mom & Dad's Cripple Creek property. Although we missed Jesse, Lindsay & the boys!! (Hoping we can see everyone this summer!)

Anyway, it was a great trip and we were so glad that all the kiddos got to meet Great Grandpa Jack. Addie was actually a little confused ~ she kept telling the other kids "this is MY great grandpa!" Cute girl. So happy we could make it.

Addie took this ~ not too bad!




Dad, Justin & Jordan built a small cabin up on the property. At first I thought it was just for storing things but they actually hooked up electricity for heating & lighting. Pretty cool! They also built the picnic table ~ great job guys!

We also hit the Cripple Creek Ice Sculpturing Festival which was still in progress.

They actually sculpted a slide that the kids could ride down






It started to snow pretty good so we had to leave (Brooke, below)

Kinda cool ~ all the buildings were lit up
