Fun Vacation!

Alyson and Connor at the BYU game!
Some of the cousins chillin in the Richard's yard!
Connor ready for ESPN!
We came back to our hotel one night to see this Lamborghini and the kids had to get a picture.
Our kids in front of the temple. Mia just loved all of the beautiful brides.

Adin and Mia fishing at Maroon Lake by the Maroon Bells (it was chilly)
The Family at the Bells
At the top of our hike up to Hanging Lake! The kids did very well on this hike and on the way down it started to rain, but NO COMPLAINTS!
On top of Glenwood looking out over the valley towards Aspen

We just returned from our Fall Break vacation. It was fun. We started out in Glenwood Springs where we went swimming everyday in the Hot Springs, went on a Gondola up overlooking the whole area, went on a fast alpine slide at the top of the mountain, did a large swing that took us way out over the canyon, panned for gems, rock-climbed, went fishing in Aspen near the Maroon Bells (we didn't catch a thing), and then took off to Utah. In Utah we stayed a couple nights in downtown Salt Lake City where we went to temple square, saw some movies and swam some more in the pool at the hotel. Next, we went and stayed with Cami and Jason and family where the kids just played like crazy. On Saturday, Connor and me got up early in the morning to go to Provo where we were part of a large mob of people dying to be on ESPN's College Game Day. Connor painted his face and went crazy, but still did not end up on TV. Later, we saw BYU get stomped by TCU, but it was fun to be there anyway. Yesterday, after going to church with the Richards (we didn't fight anyone) we made the long journey back home. Whew! It was a good get away, but it seemed like a lot of work!
