Colorado Trip for Mom & Dad

This picture as in the backyard of the cabin we were staying in. The snow was knee deep.

My handsome snow bunny :)

Not sure about this little guy. He was sweet and playful and joined us for all outside activities :)

Well this post isn't about the boys...but about a trip for mom and dad that was long over due. Gabe and I decided to take a trip and leave the boys with Grandma :) We flew out on a Thursday morning and landed in CO by 10AM and had a 2 hour drive to Alma (the little town we stayed in). As it would turn out, Alma is 12k feet up in the mountains and Gabe and I took turns with bouts of elevation sickness. On a more positive note, it snowed the entire time we were there...it was amazing and so beautiful!!!!! We were scheduled to stay four days but after two nights of feeling like our heads were going to burst (from the elevation sickness) and our hearts were going to beat out of chests, we decided "home" sounded pretty good! Saturday morning we got up, loaded the car and headed back to Brackenridge. We ate breakfast and then Gabe went skiing for 3 hours while I sat around reading waiting to see him tumble down a black diamond :) We then took off and headed for the airport where we luckily got out on an 8pm flight. We arrived home by 10:30pm and it was so awesome to see Kade and Kole. Overall the trip was a nice get away but it's always nice to get back home to my little rug rats :)
