Colorado


We decided to take a last minute trip to Colorado for a long weekend getaway.

Here is our trip in numbers:
- 1 puking incident in a restaurant to start the trip - Jackson
- 1 picnic at the top of Peak 9 in Breckenridge
- 1 fall down the stairs resulting in a bruised tailbone - me
- 1 Train ride through the Royal Gorge - Jackson talked about "ride the choo choo ride" the whole way
   to CO
- 1 ride down the mountain on the Alpine slide - Adam & Jackson
- 2 tanks of gas
- 2 hrs spent swimming with the mountains in the background
- 3 different lodging options - a hotel, a cabin, & a condo
- 3 chair lift rides
- 4 different towns visted - Castle Rock, Fremont, Colorado Springs,  &  Breckenridge
- 5 bags between all of us - too many
- 8 attempts at nursing while traveling
- 13 toddler tantrums
- 19 hrs spent sitting  squeezing between the 2 carseats to keep the boys happy
- 23 hrs of driving with a 2 year old and a 1 month old
- 37 diaper changes
-189 pictures taken

Our first road trip as a family of 4 - PRICELESS! We had so much fun!
