Paul and Maureen Visit

In the middle of January Paul and Maureen came for a visit. It just so happened that the girls had both the Friday and Monday of their visit off school. They arrived on Thursday night.  On Friday we went down to the Cave of the Winds in Colorado Springs.

We have been there before but the girls really didn't remember it. They really enjoyed it this time.

The view out the back is amazing!

This slide was new. Mia made it to the top and slid down. Anna tried but got a little scared when she was half way up. I know I could not do it. They put it right on the edge of the canyon!!!

On Saturday we headed up to the mountains to go to the Ice Castles. Becky and the boys joined us.

The castles were much more kid-friendly than the last time we were there, about six years ago.

The roof of this one room was spectacular!

There were ice blocks called T.V.'s that the kids could go behind for a picture.

This time there was also a big ice slide. There were some smaller slides for Oli as well.

On Sunday we relaxed at home and on Monday the four of us adults went to the Avalanche vs. Ducks hockey game. We will see them again in just four short weeks for Dan's retirement!
