Estes Park

We made our annual trek to Estes Park with our friends this weekend. It was an overall success; Sabine had a great time adding to our tradition, and Aspen did wonderfully (sleeping more than Sabine at night!) on her first overnight trip away from home.



We spent a lot of it just hanging around the cabins with our friends.





The older girls spent a lot of time outside, collecting rocks and flowers.







On Saturday most of the group went for a hike:









While Aspen and I stayed back and on our eating/feeding schedule. We still got to spend some time outside in the cool, fresh mountain air.



Afterwards, everyone spent some quiet time. Sabine and E painted rocks in our cabin.





And Aspen and Aunt Kristin and I watched.



We took off on Sunday, but not without stopping for some pony rides. I think this was the highlight of the trip, again, this year, for Sabine!









Then Aspen allowed us how it was time to head home, so we did!
