Colorado is always one of my girls favorite summer trips because they have cousins that are across the street.
They played and played and played all day. And of course had popsicles everyday because that is a requirement when we are at Grandma's house.
This year was EVEN better because Uncle Oscar had an above ground pool in his backyard. So, every afternoon (except one) we went swimming.
After swimming, they would get on the warm trampoline and dry off/warm up a little.
This summer we also decided it would be fun to go to the Bar D Chuckwagon for dinner and the show. I hadn't been there in about 16 years.
We even panned for gold and took a little train ride around the property.
The food was pretty good and the show was excellent. Although it was a little bit of a late night for the kids, they had fun at the "cowboy dinner" (as Anikka called it).
My girls were also treated to a "Birthday party day" by their Grandparents while we were home.
We started off with happy meals at McDonald's.
Followed by a fun park, although we didn't stay long since it was so hot.
Shopping for presents at Walmart.
Taco dinner.
A big afternoon rainstorm prevented us from swimming, but it produced some great mud for squishing toes in.
Then we had chocolate fudge cake....
and presents.
They had the most amazing day.
One afternoon, we had a water balloon fight and the kids used my GoPro in the pool. Hilarious pictures.
We also did a few other fun things. The ice cream truck came by one evening, which is always exciting (and PS: can my girls rock the 80's side pony or what?).
The girls went bowling for the first time.
We went down to 7-11 for ice cream...
and on our last night there, we played Pie Face.
As it is every summer, we had a great trip with lots of amazing memories.
Love you Mom and Dad.
