Colorado Fun!

Mark had a fun trip to Colorado. Mark traveled with Mommy and Daddy as well as Granny Jan and Grandpa Shelby. Mark was such a good little traveler. He received lots of entertainment from the other passengers in the van, especially Granny Jan. We arrived at Aunt Jeanie and Uncle Dean's house on August 30th, our wonderful home away from home for the next few days.

On August 31st, Mike and I took Mark to Rocky Mountain National Park. We took Trail Ridge Road up to the Alpine Visitor Center and then went up the trail. Mark was determined to walk some of the trail himself. He would cry when we would pick him up to carry him so we allowed him to walk some of the trail himself. He is a determined little guy.

On Sept. 1st, we had a family reunion at the zoo. We were quite a crew. There were the seven of us that traveled from Aunt Jeanie and Uncle Dean's house and then we met up with Mike's cousins Shelley and Stacie, their husbands James and Jeff, and Stacie's kids Cooper and Everett. We had a wonderful time at the zoo.

On Sept. 2nd, Stacie, Jeff, Cooper, and Everett traveled to Jeanie and Dean's house for the afternoon. It was fun to see Mark interact with Cooper. We had a great time visiting and playing with the kids.

On Sept. 3rd, it was time to head back home. We went on a scenic drive into the mountains and then started the drive home. I think we all had a wonderful vacation!
