A Little Road Trip...

We went to Colorado for the weekend for a fun little trip to
spend some much needed family time and celebrate
Joe and Chandler's Birthday.  All we told the boys is that
we were going to Colorado to go to a Museum.
We went to Real Pirates-a traveling exhibit of National Geographic.
It was an amazing exhibit of a Pirate Ship that had been discovered
in US waters.  The Story of the Whydah was so neat and seeing
all the artifacts that was found under the water. 


After the Museum we took the boys to Casa Bonita for supper.  Both Joe and I had
gone when we where young and I am sure that is has not changed one bit. 
The food for sure is not exactly the draw here-but the ambiance is unforgetable.

We got to sit in the grass hut-the cliff diver would climb the rock wall and visit with
the boys.  They got to tell him what dives they wanted to see him do.



So this is not the best picture but I Love it!!

My Birthday Boys


Elitch Gardens was our last adventure...the boys have been asking to go to Six Flags and Joe has be wanting to go to a water park with a 'toilet bowl slide'.  So Elitches was the perfect place! 
Joe and I love roller coasters and we are lucky enough that our boys too enjoy the thrill rides! 
Ry found out that he is just like his mother and cannot do any of the swing rides
without having the urge to puke.  Roller Coasters are more our speed!!!

Mister Twister II was the boys favorite Ride

The Boomerang was Joe and I's favorite Ride

Rip Curl was all of our favorite Water Slide
aka: toilet bowl
