Rocky Mountain Vacation
This past week Randy and I took our first vacation away from the kids since Bennett was born. We went to Colorado Springs, Colorado, and was it ever beautiful! Our hotel was nestled right at the base of the Rocky Mountains! A little different scenery for this North Dakota gal!
We spent almost everyday doing some sort of outdoor activity, whether it be hiking (we went on at least 5 different hikes), horseback riding (Randy's first time on a horse, and it had been at least 12 years since I was on a horse), and mountain biking (no exercise on this adventure, as it was 17 miles all downhill! I think the brakes on my bike had to be replaced!)
We ate delicious food, spent time connecting with friends we hadn't seen in a while, and had some time to have conversations with each other without having to give all of our attention to our little guys!
It was wonderful to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, but we couldn't wait to get home to Blake and Bennett! We definitely want to go back to Colorado very soon, and next time we'll take the whole family.
