Denver Day 2

This is how day two of our vacation started - with a long car ride to Colorado Springs. We took full advantage though, and for the first three days all the kids naps were taken in the car.


See that snow capped mountain in the distance? That's where Brian's parents and sister were headed. They rode a cogwheel train to the top of Pike's Peak. If you look at their website and scroll down a ways you'll see in bold letters BE CAREFUL! ESPECIALLY WITH SMALL CHILDREN.

That is why Brian and I skipped that attraction and spent the morning at Garden of the Gods instead.

After a quick stop back at the hotel we were off to the Bride and Groom's house for dinner.




We tucked the kids in by 9 (a full two hours later than normal) and got some much needed rest ourselves. (I love staying in hotels and getting a bed all to myself!)
The whole point of the trip - the wedding reception - was scheduled for the next day.....
