Out to Colorado for 2 Weeks!

When you were only about 8 weeks old you went on your first road trip to Colorado with your Mom, Grammy and Grampy.  I know your Dad was really sad when you took off in the car for your first road trip out to Colorado.  We knew that you were going to see your dad in about a week but everyone was still a little sad.  Grampy called me and told me "Will really likes South Dakota!"  We didn't know how you would do sitting in your car seat for 2 days on a 20 hour road trip, but everyone says you did GREAT!

I know that I desperatly missed you that week that you were out in Colorado, but I knew how much fun you were having.  Your Mom took you on hikes, walks with Grammy and Grampy and you did a lot of fun things out in Aspen.  I know you also went to visit James Connolley too.

The most exciting thing about your trip to Colorado was that you learned how to roll over.  I couldn't believe it until I saw it. So, here it is...one of your first few times rolling over!

Here are more pictures of you when you were in Colorado in October 2010

Your First Plane, Train, Bus and trip to Colorado

September 17-19
You were only a few weeks old, but Nan was getting married out in Aspen so your mom, dad, Grammy and Auntie Mops decided we couldn't miss it and headed out to Aspen. It was your first experience traveling and being in Colorado.

We had a beautiful fall weekend in Aspen. Aunt Jill and Uncle Sam were there too.

Here is a picture of Nan in her beautiful wedding dress!

You did a great job traveling and really seemed to like the plane, trains and busses that we were in. It was a beautiful fall weekend in Aspen and we all had fun showing you around! The fall leaves were changing and the weather was perfect.

Your mom and dad carried you all over town so that you didn't miss a thing!

This trip you also got to meet James Connelley, Ashley and Mike's son. He was born 4 days after you. Your mom and Ashley wore you and James in your baby Bjorns and you loved it!

You did a great job at Nan's wedding and it was so much fun to have you there and to meet all of your mom's friends from Aspen. Here is a sweet picture of you and Maggie.

Grammy and Auntie Mops were there to help whenever your mom and dad needed it or if they wanted to get on a quick hike.
