Colorado!


We went to Colorado last Thursday to see Mike and Theresa.  We made the decision to leave Sullsie at home so we could take the big kids skiing and not have to worry about him. for whatever reason, it really bothered me to leave him this time. I think I hadn't seen him much that week, he did fine, of course and was spoiled rotten, but I missed him a ton!!

This pic  is of all 3 kids on their tablets in front of the TV the night before we left. Sigh. Spoiled much?

After he skied all day, down some fries and Reese's cups, he was OUT at the lodge.

Skiboy was super tired. He tends to get that way (probably from his lack of fuel to burn).

After falling multiple times and twisting my knee again and again, I decided I much prefer skiing from this view. Miller lite in hand, watching OTHER people fall. My knee is still not quite right.

Here we are as far up as I went. Pretty.

Aren't we cute. I was still having fun at this point.  I enjoyed myself on the kiddie runs. I don't like the lack of control I feel on steep hills when going fast. Finally to end the day I ended up sitting down on my skis and riding them like a sled down the mountain.

Mira in Ski school. They take the kids from about 9-3 and teach them how to ski. Pretty cool. Not for those of you who are cheap. Ha!

Griff. (with the yellow vest on).

Ready!

We went to the Aquarium friday. Look at my man. He's so cute.



Mira climbing the coconut tree. She was really good at it!
The aquarium was FAIR. Not overly cool fish to see, but not terrible. Griff was tired and grouchy so that wasn't fun. I carried his motrin with me, so it was helpful to have on hand. We had a great trip! Now I know since I don't need to ski, that we don't have to leave our Sully every time ;)
