Trip to Durango

This last week was spring break for Dylan and we planned a trip to Durango CO with Israel & Kati. We found a 2 bedroom townhouse to rent that was close to downtown and had a park close by that we could walk to. Durango is beautiful, I can't wait to go back again sometime during the spring time when I'm sure it would be even more amazing!

Mark, Israel and Dylan went snowboarding/skiing one day so Kati and I took the girls to the childrens museum. They had a bunch of fun playing with all the activity centers.

Mark and Dylan on the ski lift at Purgatory. They had such a great day together! Dylan was amazing on the ski's...Mark said they went up the big lift after doing the bunny hill for a couple times and it got boring. I'm really proud of how quickly Dylan has picked up skiing!

Israel got a video of them coming down the hill...

We also got a afternoon of tubing in at Purgatory. :)

Hanging out in downtown, checking out the trains & shops

On our drive home the weather was a bit crazy. Leaving Colorado the wind was really strong and the tumbleweeds were flying across the highway by the dozens and then in spots there was dirt that was so thick it was hard to see very far in and then we got to Flagstaff and there was a lot of snow coming down (when we drove to CO the ground had no snow). So we stopped and played for a little while.

The trip was really great overall. It is so much easier traveling now that the kids are getting older and of course we always have a great time with the Whittemore's! The bummer of the trip was that Isabelle was not feeling well for most of the time, then I ended up getting strep throat and Israel & Kati had to leave early due to some family stuff (but it was probably good they left our germs).

Goodbye Durango, until next time!!
