Summer Vaca

I wanted to share a quick post about our summer vacation a few weeks ago. We headed southwest to Southfork, Colorado. It was beautiful, and we really enjoy that area. They call it little Texas in that area because tons of Texans travel there, so we fit in well.

 On the way we stopped at the Great sand dunes. The sand was beautiful but very hot, so we did not stay for too long.  The sand gets to 140 degrees in the day!

We rented a house that slept 15, for all of our family, but the first night it was just our little family. It wasn't anything special, but at least I did not have to worry about Brady breaking anything.

On Thursday morning we checked out the river and beautiful scenery.

Thursday afternoon, after Nana, Gramps, Julie, T.J., and Zack got there, we checked out a reservoir and had dinner.

Friday morning, Nana watched the boys, while Jeremy fished, Julie, T.J. and I had breakfast, then sat by the river and relaxed looking at an IKEA catalog. It was lovely.

After we got back to the house we got ready and had a family photo shoot. Not everyone was cooperative, but we got some great photos, and I was happy. 

That afternoon, Jennifer, Bobby, Shawn, and Chelsey got there and we all headed to Pagosa Springs. Once we got there and headed to river, Nana had a very bad fall. We were so thankful that she was okay, but she was still really banged up. We got something to eat and headed back to the house.

Before we headed back, we sat in a park and talked. I had fun taking pics of the kids while they played.

 

Saturday the guys went fishing and golfing, while the girls and kids went on a hike, and to a near by town. 

At night the kids loved playing in the house hot tub. 

I made all the girls do glitter nails. So cute, but takes forever to get off. Even some boys got in on the action.

Sunday we had to leave. It was a fun family trip, and we were happy to all spend time together. 

I love vacations, already looking forward to planning another!
