Colorado

After our first two days of driving we made it to our first destination: Colorado!  We hadn’t made all that many preparations so we were thrilled to find out that Auntie Nina just happened to have the day off on the one day we were there!  We got to spend all day with her!  The girls loved it.  We spent all morning in the quiet little town of Odyssey.  We love the Adventures in Odyssey stories so stopping at Focus on the Family is always a must!

I always get a picture here with my girls…well before it was just one girl. :)

Pretending to be some of our favorite Whit’s End characters. (I just noticed that Boo is in the dog’s spot, haha)

And of course we just had to get some ice cream at Whit’s ice cream shop…even though it was nearly lunchtime.  We didn’t get a WODFAMCHOCSOD (for you Odyssey lovers) but K did get some chocolate chip cookie dough. :)

Then it was off to lunch at Chik-Fil-A (something we don’t have so we love to go there) and then the girls took naps at Auntie Nina’s.  The girls loved Auntie Nina’s new kitties.  They were so cute!  They have so much personality.  And consequently Boo’s new word of the day was “kit-ty!”

Then we met up with all the other family members and got to go out to dinner at a place called Old Chicago.  It was sooo good.  The girls also got another set of balloon animals!  A puppy and a ladybug this time. :)

Thanks for meeting with us everybody!  It was so great to see you all!
