Colorado Part I

We finally made it to Breckenridge!

We took off for Denver, Colorado at 11:15 a.m. Elijah once again did amazing on the flight. Slept for the 1st hour and a half in my arms and then played and watched Yo Gabbagabba for the other 2 and half.

My dad came and picked us up and we headed to Kyle and Wendy’s place in Arvada where we were warmly and enthusiastically greeted by Kali and Will. They were so excited to get to see their cousin Elijah. We stayed at Kyle and Wendy’s for the night. E loved every second of playing with Kali and Will. It is so cool to see him getting to play with his cousins.

The next morning we headed for my parent’s house in Breckenridge. We settled in and Daniel and my dad hit the slopes. I know Daniel was jonesing for some snowboarding. This year he has the pass so he can go anytime he wants to.

Tuesday, my Dad, Daniel and I went snowboarding. It was awesome how easy it was. I was super nervous about snowboarding this year since I didn’t get to go much last year. It was like I had never stopped. In the afternoon we headed out with my mom. Great first day boarding and I am looking forward to the next couple of weeks. He deserves every second of this vacation.

Wednesday E, mom and I headed out to let E play with the snow. We also went for a sled right on good old lightening guider. He loved it. Can’t wait to take him to the real sledding hill.

Kyle and Wendy came up to the mountain house Thursday. We went out to dinner to one of our favorite local joints called Rasta Pasta. We were pretty much the only family there (since we got there at 5 p.m.) so E, Will and Kali got to run around the restaurant while us adults enjoyed our food. Pretty much the only restaurant I know that encourages noise :)

Today Kyle, Wendy, Daniel and my dad headed to Keystone.

That’s the update for now. We are enjoying our time here. So happy we’ve got another whole week.

    Look at E’s hair! He looks like a one-year-old David Cassidy.

    Glad you’re having a good time. If you get bores, Kansas is only 10 hour hop, skip and jump away!
