Estes Park, Colorado


Tomorrow afternoon we are heading to Estes Park, CO for our Spring Break.  We will be there a short time as Scott needs to be back in St Louis next Thursday.  But it will be a fun get away regardless.  

We are staying at the YMCA of the Rockies, our friends the Ericksons recommended it.  It is a camp run by the YMCA.  We have rented a cabin in the mountains.  We are excited for the adventure.  Packing is proving to be a bit tricky, packing for snow and possibly skiing, and then golf stuff for those that want to golf.  It's odd that Colorado weather allows both of those things at the same time of year.  

It will be a fun adventure.  We haven't been to Colorado since Jack was 1 year old.  And the big boys don't remember much of it either.  So we wanted to visit a part of the country that was different to them.  

I love Colorado, it's such a beautiful place.  

Looking forward to getting away and time together....praying that the car ride and the "togetherness" proves to be a blessing and doesn't bring about the Crabby Mom in me.  Feel free to say some prayers for a peaceful and fun time together. 

Maybe by the time we get back to Iowa the snow will ALL have melted.  :)
