We arrived in Colorado around 5pm on Monday, June 13th.
I really wish we could have come on a weekend for this visit. My sister and
Doug both had to work all week, but fortunately Gavin played hooky from daycare
and got to hang out with us all week! Doug is up at 2:30am for work, so he was
home by 2pm. Megs was home by 6!
On Tuesday, we spent the morning settling in and resting
from our 2 day drive. We drove from Melissa, TX to Amarillo, TX and stayed in a
hotel, then finished off our drive to Colorado the next day. We packed a lunch
for everyone and went over to Aurora Reservoir. What a beautiful spot! It had rentals for kayaks, paddle boards, bikes, BBQs, and fishing boats. They also had a snack bar, a beach area for swimming, a
playground, and some walking/biking paths. We ended up hanging mostly by the
playground and then headed out for some frozen yogurt.
Little rascals after ice cream just had to get in near the
splash area! I don’t blame them!
Wednesday morning we went to the neighborhood splash pad. I
gotta say, Gavin knows his comfort zone and that was definitely HIS spot. He
was all smiles and had a blast. Kamryn likes everything Gavin likes so she was
all smiles. Noah was cold haha. Oh Key West, what have you done to our
children! LOL! The water was pretty chilly!
Lots of playing outside and bonding is basically what we did
in Colorado and we loved every second of it. Water balloons, squirt guns, power wheels, swimming pool, popsicles, walks with Cooper, you name it! The kids were
always asking to go outside to play! Kamryn and Gavin were best buds from the
start. It was nice to see because most kids we see want to hang out with the
big kid (aka Noah). So I’m glad Kamryn and Gavin were so close. Overall, they
all played well together.
Thursday night was our last night, so we roasted
marshmallows in their backyard! A Busick favorite of course!!
Thanks Megs, Doug, Gavin, and Cooper for having us! We love
you guys so much and enjoy our time EVERY TIME!! I wish goodbyes were easy but
they never are! We have had a lot of “see you laters” in the last month but
also some exciting “hello’s”!
