Away we went...

...to Colorado! We had a great time visiting our friends Matt, Sarah and Carys. (I have to get permission from Sarah to post pics of them so they may come later)
Our flight out was suppose to be a 2:45 minute direct flight. Due to a large storm that was in Denver at the time of our arrival we had to circle for 45 minutes, that led to running low on fuel so a "quick" jump to Amarillo Texas... refueled... then back to Denver... This turned our trip into a 7 hour two stop trip!!! I had graham bunnies with me and raisins since I fed Trace before we left and planned to feed him again a few hours later upon our arrival. I learned my lesson to stay over prepared in the food department.
Our return trip involved a 2 1/2 hour delay. So instead of arriving back to Nashville at 9:45pm it was 12:15am making our arrival home around 1:00 AM!!! Awful. Sarah sent lots of food with me so at least Trace had something to eat this time. He was SO tired but did not sleep one second on the plane either direction!!!
Regardless we had a GREAT time. Friday we all went over to the mountains and had lunch in the town of Estes Park. A cute little resort town by the park. Saturday the guys went to play golf and Sarah and I took the kids to the park and went to see Jason, Lisa, Drew and Taylor Held. It was a short visit but it was great to see them. Hopefully on our next trip we can pencil in more time with the Helds! Sunday the boys watched the kids so Sarah and I could do a little shopping and have lunch. Overall it was a great weekend! Thanks for hosting us. We cant wait to return the favor!!!
