The summer is coming to a close and, it has been a busy one. I think this summer the girls went to more camps than ever. Not only did they go to Girl Scout camp, but they went to a horse camp for a week and learned how to vault. They also did a couple of parks and rec camps as well as dancing camps.
We just came back from visiting our very close friends Mike and Chris Chavez (no relation) in Winsor Colorado. It is very close to Fort Collins. We were excited to see the house they just built and I must say, it is BEAUTIFUL. We stayed with them for almost a week and had a blast. We went to the county fair and saw the Bobcat rodeo and the all the 4-H kids showing off thier livestock. We were able to see the barrel racers and of course Bailey wants to do it. We went to the river and spent the whole day just chilling. The kids were able to use two rafts and tubes to float and play. They jumped off rocks and splashed and just had fun playing. We did run into an afternoon rain and all nine of us huddled under a make shift tent. Yes, we looked like a bunch of rednecks.
We spent a day at WaterWorld and again... had a blast. One night Mike got a fire going and we did smores. I think I had more mojitos on this trip than I can remember. It is almost 500 miles exactly from our front door to theirs. Only 7.5 hours of driving time. It was worth it. Thanks guys for making us feel at home in your new place. We can't wait to see you again at Thanksgiving. XOXO
