Trip to Colorado

A couple weeks ago my bosses took a week for a business trip. As I had nothing to do with my time off and wasn't sure if I would get any more leave before summer I decided to visit some friends in Colorado! I got on the bus in the mid evening on Friday and arrived in Denver Saturday morning!

One of the nights I stayed with the Gilchrist's we did a girls night upstairs while the boys had some fun of their own downstairs.

Us girlies did nails and watched Barbie Princess and the Pauper!

 

On our way to the park on Monday afternoon after school

We got a big snow one night and the kids had a ton of fun playing in it!

After a fun time with the Gilchrist family they took me to the Sadlo's house in Colorado Springs. I had such a wonderful time with them too! I didn't take as many pictures but I did manage a few before I left.

We took a fun afternoon trip to a little town called Manitou Springs

Chaela and I loved this purple and yellow house!

In front of a beautiful old church

This was taken driving through Garden of the Gods

We had lunch in this cute little middle eastern restaurant

We shared a sampler that included lamb, beef, chicken, hummace, pita, and falafel.

We also bought some baklava - yum!

 One night we played Clue together - one of my favourite games of all time!

I had so much fun seeing all my friends. I had wonderful talks with them and was very blessed by their hospitality and kindness. It was so good to catch up and experience their lives in Colorado!
