We have been looking forward to April 19 for SO long! That's the day we leave for Colorado for a week for my SBF, Stephanie's wedding celebration! Yippee!
So, my incredible husband has some serious skills on getting great flights. We were able to fly our entire family to and from Chicago for under $300! We had to leave 6:30am, but it's worth it when you save that much money.
The kids consider themselves airplane pro's now that they've flown once before. Adley really was excited, she just likes to make silly faces that happen to look sassy when I'm trying to get her to smile ;)
We had a great flight. We rented our truck, and then headed into downtown Denver to the Firefighter's Museum. The kids conked out pretty quick, so we just relaxed in the truck until they woke up =)
The Firefighter Museum was really neat! Especially when your daddy is also a fireman.
Time to head west! Boy are those mountains ever beautiful!
We stopped at Ben's parent's house to see the bride and groom! We shared lunch together, gathered some eggs (Adley dropped hers), and helped with a few minor wedding details.
We are horrible at pictures. We were trying to get the mountains in the background. No such luck.
Then we headed up the "hill," to Evergreen where we stayed with the Judges. They had 50 inches of snow just days before, so this was the snowiest I'd ever seen the mountains.
Somehow snow in April isn't as frustrating in Colorado as it in in Illinois!
We spent the night visiting with Nancy, John and Ty. We also spent some time in the hot tub which was wonderful! Vacation has officially begun!
