Summer Week 8

This is our last week of summer in Colorado! The kids are so excited for vacation that they have been counting down the days. Jack and Lily both made countdown chains... Jack is very consistent with taking one off every day. Lily doesn't really care as much
Each chain is even decorated with pictures of fun things they want to do on vacation. Here is Jack's chain depicting the "Tower of Terror" ride

Our friends had to move this week so I volunteered to watch all the kids (their 3 + my 3) at Chuck E Cheese. That makes two times at Chuck E Cheese for me in less than 5 days...at least the kids had fun. 



 Monday morning we headed out at 8am to try to attempt hiking Horsetooth Falls with some friends.
 The kids did great

 It was a hot day so the kids had a blast getting in the water at the bas of the falls






 Lily loves to pose for the camera


 Jack wanted to pose too



 The hike back from the falls was a little more challenging. It was getting hot and Lily was really tired. But she pushed through and made it back without being carried

 Monday night we had our last home group session with friends. Josie really wanted to join the kids on the playground
Tuesday we headed to the indoor bowling center to play games and have dinner with my mom. The kids favorite ride is this roller coaster simulator:
 Jack also found a game that he loves to play on the iPad

 After dinner we met Luke at the trampoline place to jump for 2 hours before bed. Everyone loves jumping!






And that is it for our summer in Colorado. Everyone is excited to start the next part of our vacation.
