Mountain Fun




So this past weekend we packed up the car (way to many items for a 2 night stay) and drove to higher ground!! We met my Mom, Don his kids and my sister for a nice weekend getaway. Saturday night we arrived and went to the club house to play racket ball and to swim. Brittany forgot her swim suit and got wet still, even though she asked everyone to not splash her. Mikayla walked up and down the pool stairs 5 hundred times and bossed everyone around. And I beat Billy in all but one water race:) My swimming lessons back in the day at Delmar really paid off.

Sunday Billy and Brittany went snowboarding and I guess had a really fun time for there not being any snow on the ground. It was on the trail but that was all we saw.
The rest of the clan; Don, Cindy, Matt, Sadie, Me, Mikayla, Seth, Andy, and Julie went to Breckenridge to walk along the river walk and to look at some of the stores. Seth cried the whole time (he was too hot, and I didn't want him to get cold so I would rather him be hot and cry then cold and get sick next week) Mikayla slept as usual when she visits a new place and the rest of us had a good time enjoying the fresh mountain air. Don was gracious enough to treat us to some hot chocolate from Starbucks, they were all out so we had to change our minds and get peppermint mocha drinks. And then we went home. The Simpson kids went home and the rest of us stayed until Monday afternoon. We had a great time I just wish there was more snow. Last year we had done this same trip the same weekend and there was tons of snow. So hopefully next year there will be a lot of snow again:)
