Sorry its been a while since my last post. We were in Colorado for a week on vacation with Jeremy and Deedra. Now, the school year is starting... yesterday was my first day back. We have staff development this week and the kids start back on Tuesday next week.

Here are some pictures from our trip... This is the cabin that we stayed in. Deedra's dad built it himself! It is about half way between Lake City and Creede.
This is the main living room. Yes, there was a tv... The binoculars right next to it were awesome. We could see the elk up on top of the mountain... one day we say a group of about 50!
This is the other side of the great room. You can see there stairs that lead to the bedrooms.This is the kitchen... out the window there is a hummingbird feeder. I loved to watch it b/c there were always birds flying by to get food.
While we were out driving one day we saw a bull moose in the valley.
This is us in Creede. We drove into town one day to have lunch, shop, and see a play. It was a really cute little town. Here is Deedra in Lake City. The girls shopped one day while the boys were out on their 8 hour fishing trip. All the little shops are so cute.
Matt and Jeremy attempted to clean their fish that they caught, but we decided not to eat them. Yucky!
Lake Cristobal... Beautiful!
Chip, the chipmunk.... he road in the hood of our car to Creede and back... every once in a while he would pop his head out of the car and say hi.
It was about a 16 hour drive each way. On the last day of driving we stopped in Amarillo for lunch at the Big Texan Restaurant.
It was a great trip! Thank you to Jeremy and Deedra for taking us with them! You guys rock!
