Getting Away!

This week was our much anticipated vacation! We drove to Albuquerque and stayed one night then we went on to Durango where we spent 5 nights! We went to a chuck wagon dinner, rode the train, shopped, and camped. Our camp site was right on the river, they had a cute park, a pool, and they showed movies outside at night! This was our girls first time to camp and they both loved it!(I was worried about Claire because she just got really moble but she was fine!) We slept in a tent and everything, you should be so proud of me. Actually it was not bad the wind did not blow and it didn't rain so things were pretty calm. Caleb packed a fan for daytime & a heater for nighttime so we stayed fairly comfortable! We also rode the Alpine slide and did this cool bungee tramp! It was so fun! Caleb did flips on it. ( Side Bar I am so bummed because I had some awesome pictures 300ish and I accidentally deleted them.BOO!) UMMM... Morgan roasted marshmallows and hot dogs, fished & fed the chipmunks at lake Haviland. We also visited a Bee Farm it was cool! We really had a great time! I read a book and started another, bought my annual Christmas ornaments, & I took naps! We went from Durango to Red River and stayed one night there. We didn't do too much there mostly walked the river and played hearts! Caleb & I spanked his parents in hearts! We drove home today. Oh we ate lunch at the St. James Hotel, it was very cool! Anyway here is a slide show minus the 300 pictures I lost BOO!BOO!

Misty, we did that exact vacation last year. Bee farm and all. We actually stayed at the Purgatory Village and had so much fun. I got Gracelyn to go on the bungee tramp and she loved it. That vacation was my favorite and we hope to do it again soon. Your pictures are precious.

BTW~~Blogger hasn't let me post comments in a while, but I HAVE been reading your blog faithfully!
