La Quinta Resort Holiday Celebration

Me and Pa were going for a bike ride and happened upon this amazing event.  They had reindeer, Santa, arts and crafts, a giant hill for sledding, free cookies and hot drinks and even a mariachi band.  I think we were supposed to be staying at the hotel but nobody seemed to care.  We will have to make this an annual event.
Had a great visit from Mom/Grandma, Pa/Yo Pa this Thanksgiving.  The weather couldn't have been more perfect the feast seemed to last days.  Let the overeating holidays continue!

Snow in La Quinta

85 degrees and sledding

 Proof Ethan made it too

 Hank and Eliza on the ATV in Woodstock

 Ethan and Ezra couldn't get enough Bay Blades

 Such a cutie pie

 And a character

 Hank and Ezra with a mini hot air balloon.  Topping off a great dinner

 Went for a great hike to red rocks in a river

 Couldn't have had better weather for this time of yr.

 I made it across the stream without getting wet!

Only in Woodstock.  Wish I got a picture of Papa Woodstock or the drum circle where Eliza was the center of attention. 

Sunday family drive

Can't walk at the Woodstock ranch

Chainsaw power

I'm ready to change professions!

Sculpting Clay

Rode the quad and shot the bow and arrow earlier. Tomorrow we are going to use a chainsaw to cut a dead tree. Whole different world than NYC

Toys r us

In the middle of Time Square. Saw the musical Spider-Man tonight on Broadway. Having a great time in the Big Apple.

Getting ready for preschool

NYC

Happy to make it in the snow! Cold but really cool to be in the City

Few More Colorado Pics

 

A Fireball shot before our Ghost Tour of Fort Collins

                An orb floating across the basement of the old mortuary

                 Right out our front door at the time share in Estes Park

             The Stanley Hotel (haunted) and we went on another ghost tour.


Had a blast with Brian and Debi in Colorado.  Thank you for being such great hosts, we really enjoyed our visit. 

Bacon infused bloody mary

Wow if you love bacon this is the ultimate Bloody Mary. Almost as good as Debi's but not as much variety of pickled veggies and less booze.

Stanley Hotel

Historic hotel in Estes Park. Stephen Kings The Shining was written and based on this hotel. We are going on a ghost hunting tour of the hotel tonight. If your lucky I will post the orbs we hope to observe tonight.

Elk sighting

Estes Park Colorado. Amazing to see Elk right outside our front door. 1 hr from Fort Collins but a world apart. I understand why Brian and Debi love it here.

60/40

60% beef 40% bacon. Only in Colorado and only $2.50 with Debi's coupon.

Cool bike

6 people can fit comfortably on this bike. Think they would trade for the pedi cab?
