Steamboat Springs, Colorado

Keith has wanted to ride his motorcycle to Yellowstone for several years now.
We looked into going there this summer, and the cost was just too high.
Then, I found a Worldmark in Steamboat Springs, Colorado and we decided to go there instead.
Keith and Travis left early afternoon on the motorcycles.
Natalie, Addi, Kelli, Cambree, and I followed in the truck later in the afternoon. 
The guys stopped every 60 miles or so to rest and we ended up getting there not too long after they did.



Addi ready to ride. Thank heavens for portable DVD players.


Seriously, I look like my mother. First time I've ever thought that. 
Bad picture but cute babies.


Kelli bought this darling chair for Cambree. It will grow with her and she loves it.


Addi loved the COLD pool and the playground.


We went on a short walk to a waterfall.
The guys in there vests, you know they were riding their bikes.


Tried to get a family photo of Travis' family, 
but Addi used the time to have a nap and we were grateful.








Addi fell in love with the rocking horse, even sported a cowboy hat.
Course I had to buy her one.




My 2 babies with there babies.
Sometimes it's really hard to believe that we are at this point in our lives.


Gotta love the hat, but not shopping. 


Ever seen a cuter smile.


The highlight for me was floating in the Yampa River.
Travis and Keith kayaked it in the morning. Trav lost his flip flops and
 ended up walking barefoot 6 or 7 blocks through town to find us and go to the truck. 
Then we rented tubes and made 2 runs in the afternoon,
Addi and pregnant Natalie even went.
Warm, delightful, silly, rocky
all in all a great trip.
I'll go again.

Looks like a grand get away! The photos of Natalie and Boom with those babies makes me tired! The photos of Keith and Travis in their vests makes me cringe. Congrats on making wonderful family memories. They are priceless.

PS-you do look like your momma which is quite a compliment!
