Family Vacation Part 2: Estes Park


The Stradley family reunion was a blast! We loved being together with everyone. We snagged a few family photos in the beautiful scenery of Colorado while we were there.
Thankful for my parents who made this all possible and for the great grandparents they are.
Tyler said "Grandma" more than any other word while we were there I'm pretty certain.





We stayed at a YMCA which had tons of activities and included 3 meals a day. (So nice to not have to worry about food for a week.) Sam loved mini golfing with Grandma. Tyler liked to get in the way and throw a golf ball around.







The kids got to make slime one day. It was super super slimy.





We headed on a hike around a gorgeous lake. Steven found a rock climbing spot nearby. Well, it was a "short" hike from the lake, but it was as steep as they come. Sam and I braved it so I could get some photos.


















That's Matthew on top of that rock.




Mom paid for us to make tye dye shirts. They all turned out pretty awesome.


My boys played in the dirt while other did archery.







Our last full day in Colorado we went to the national forest in the rockies and hiked to a waterfall. It was a nice hike and a pretty waterfall. Tyler fell asleep on the way down, unfortunately it wasn't a stroller friendly hike so he napped on grandpa for the last little bit. Sam hiked the whole way up. :)






















The kids were champs on the way home. We only stopped twice. Made a stop at bear lake for a raspberry shake.
It was a great week, but also so good to be home and in our own bed.
