We had such a wonderful trip to Colorado!! Chris and Charlene did such a great job scoping out and planning fun activities for the boys. We did something exciting every day! It was truly an amazing time.
The excitement started with the airplane ride for the boys. Here they are watching our nine pieces of luggage and paraphernalia disappear into the bowels of the airport.
Getting ready to take off!! Emmett was so cute when the wheels left the ground... He yelled, "We're FLYING!!!"
And the wrestling match with Davis begins... (None of our babies have liked to sit still on airplanes).
Phil finally won this round and was able to get D to sleep for about a half hour during our flight from ATL to Denver.
But we made it!!! We were all so happy to see Nana and Papa Swoop! We celebrated with dinner at a yummy noodle restaurant. The boys devoured their macaroni and cheese (especially D!).
Then back at the house Nana had some belated Christmas presents for the boys to open. They were so excited!
The next day we went to and indoor family fun center and let the boys go crazy with all the fun activities there. It was hard to get pics that day because they were all running around in different directions. Laser Tag was a favorite.
We ate lunch while watching the Colorado Avalanche practice! That was a fun surprise and very cool!
Then back downstairs for more of the huge bouncy castle, video games, bumper cars, and Reid even tried the rock wall (for a few seconds)...
We were bummed that there wasn't much snow while we were there but the boys really enjoyed what little crunchy stuff was left!
The next day we took the electric train into the city! We were a little early on the train platform so we had some time for pictures.
Here comes the train!!
Poor Davis was a little terrified of the train at first.
But the other boys loved it!
Also loved the escalator...
This was right outside the restaurant where we ate lunch. As you can see the kids were a little grungry and ready for food and not pictures. Lol.
Okay this beer bottle was completely empty (completely) but these pictures were too funny not to share.
We ate at Yardhouse and had the most delicious lunch.
After lunch we walked around downtown for a while. Denver has a beautiful downtown!
A goofy street guy outside a candy shop made the boys these balloon swords. Emmett wanted to go nowhere near the guy but he loved his sword after we got a block or two away. :)
I loved my little city waking buddy holding my hand as we walked along.
This is the train station downtown. Newly renovated and so beautiful!
Emmett and his faces... He is such a character.
The boys love their Nana!!
This looks like Phil is sweetly smelling Davis's head but really he was falling asleep.
When we got home it was a beautiful afternoon so we walked the boys down to the neighborhood park.
They all had snow boots on and stepped in every puddle or patch of snow that they could.
Oh, Reid. You are too much!
