just a quick glimpse of our trip out to denver in january. the city is lively, no real bad parts, parks everywhere, and of course, the view of the rockies doesnt get old.
the following pics are in City Park....a nice big park with playground, zoo, science center, etc. notice the kids have snow boots on but no jackets. it was like 50 degrees but the snow doesnt melt because it gets freezing at night. its perfect play weather!!! we loved it!
look at this amazing playground...castles and ziplines!
abe and maggie doing a puppet show at a local bookstore with an awesome kids section.
we headed up to Winter Park one day. the drive up was pretty amazing. at one point it just starts snowing b/c you are high enough and then all of the sudden you are above clouds. the kids are a bit too young to really get into the scenery....we heard lots of "this is taking too long." but Matt and I sure enjoyed it!
considering i was (am) great with child, we decided against skiing or tubing, and decided to take a sleigh through the woods. quite as pretty as it sounds.
our sweet horses that pulled our sleigh through the snow. arent they pretty?
getting ready to head out! isnt Mags adorable?
we had to sit close to Abe because of course he wanted to jump around.
look at those slopes! gulp! one day.....
we stopped in the middle of the snow and the cowboy made us hot cocoa. pretty awesome.
Mags loving the VIP treatment.
one happy girl
do we look like a Denver family?
i could get use to the snuggling....

Wow! Gorgeous pictures!!!
that's where we were (Winter Park) this summer for a month! Isn't it GORGEOUS?!?! I'd love to go in the winter, too!
Colorado makes me happy. I forget sometimes. Praying for you all for the details and logistics, but I know you will definitely love that place.
