I'll try to give a recap through the pictures that I took.
 |
| We spent the first morning at a nearby park |
 |
| Next we headed to Breckenridge |
 |
| So beautiful! |
 |
| We picnicked by the water |
 |
| Of course John wanted to get in the water! |
 |
| Will eating his lunch |
 |
| Lunch by the river |
 |
| Poor baby Matthew had to lie on a rock for awhile! He didn't seem to mind |
 |
| The next day we rode a gondola in Breckenridge - John was unsure about the whole thing |
 |
| Alivia thought it was awesome! |
 |
| Such a cute shot in the gondola |
 |
| In the gondola |
 |
| The following day we headed to the nearby Country Boy Mine for a tour |
 |
| They had old mining equipment that the kids loved to climb on |
 |
| Overview of the mining area |
 |
| They had burrows that roamed the grounds - hilarious! |
 |
| John absolutely refused to go into the mine, so Daddy had to entertain him while I took A and W inside |
 |
| We learned how to pan for gold afterwards - it was really fun! We found quite a bit of fools gold. |
 |
| Begging burrows - I had fed it a few goldfish crackers and it was begging for more! |
 |
| View from our condo |

| Another view from our condo |
 |
| Another day we headed for the Georgetown Steam Train ride |
 |
| On the train - it lasted about an hour - perfect amount of time |
 |
| View of the train rounding the bend |
 |
| John and Daddy |
 |
| There were beautiful views from the train of the valley |
 |
| Afterwards we had a picnic lunch in Georgetown and then got some incredible homemade ice cream in town |
 |
| The next day we returned to the awesome nearby park - I wish this was in Austin! |
 |
| Check out the cool stuff in this park! |
 |
| Taking a break from the sun |
 |
| Picnic snack in the shade |
 |
| Baby Matthew being his sweet self |
 |
| After naps we headed to the nearby stream that runs through Dillon |
 |
| We had a picnic lunch with Mimi and Grandpa |
 |
| The kids loved exploring the river and skipping rocks |
 |
| There were beautiful rainbow trout in the river! Can you see it? |
 |
| We walked to a nearby shop for ice cream - John had just about had it at this point. |
 |
| We managed to fit in a hike around Sapphire Lake |
 |
| John made my heart race as he climbed the rocks along the cliff |
 |
| Sweet Will, beautiful mountains |
 |
| Sweet Sister loved to feed the numerous chipmunks around the area |
 |
| Our awesome guides - Mimi and Grandpa! |
 |
| John had an absolute fit when we placed him in this carrier - but later on the hike said "I want my chair!" and climbed back in again! |
 |
| We had a great snack along the way |
 |
| The clouds started rolling in and we made it back to the car just as the rain started - whew! |
 |
| Stuck in the airport after we MISSED OUR FLIGH HOME! AHHHH! |
 |
| I just had to capture the amount of stuff that we had with us - it made people stop and stare |
 |
| Out of order shot from my iPhone - we ate a the best Cajun restaurant one night called "The Lost Cajun" |
 |
| Probably the only pic I will ever have of Matthew in a hat - he looks adorable |
 |
| Leaving the restaurant - can you believe I was wearing a FLEECE jacket in July?! I love the mountains! |
