Today was our big sightseeing day. We decided to go to Telluride--a fun ski resort with a free Gondola ride. It was suppose to be about an hour and 45 min., but ended up taking longer since we were going up into the mountains. We were all getting a little restless towards the end, but still got to enjoy some beautiful snow scenery on the way and we had a blast in Telluride. We started off with a picnic in the park--snow was everywhere, but the sun was out and we found a covered table just perfect for a picnic. We ate and then walked through the neat downtown area and window shopped heading to the Gondola. The Gondola ride was great--wonderful view of the mountains and fun to watch the skiiers. It made Layne and I really want to ski again and Caden was very fastinated by them as well--maybe next year! We walked around the ski village, then rode the Gondola back down the mountain, had icecream, and headed back to Delta. At Delta, we stopped by some of Jake and Janell's friends who have horses and let the kids see and pet the horses and then Caden got to ride on one of the horses named Deisel. He loved it! After a long day, Jake and Janell made us a yummy supper of Kabob's and then when the kids were tucked in for the night, Jake's parents came over for a fun card game of Rage--we all enjoyed playing this game and reccomend it! It is especially fun when you beat your husband! It was a super day up in the mountains!

Our picnic lunch surrounded by snow!
Caden with a great smile and a very messy face--you might have to look closely to see the mess, but it is there!
Caden and Aunt Nell had fun with the hole in the pipe!
Off to explore with mommy.
The cover over our picnic table that was dripping with snow--and Caden got some that landed perfectly on him and scared him a bit--off course the snow would have to land right on him!
After our picnic and Brynn is full and worn out!
Off we go to explore the town of Telluride--thanks guys for carrying the kids!

A priceless picture--Brynn thinks Caden is the funniest person ever and he loves entertaining her!
There was a stuffed bear outside a store on the way back and we had to take a picture for Aunt Kristi--see Kristi--bears are not scary!
Icecream time at a fun little shop--Brynn is a little excited!
Why not drink a chocolate shake on top of Uncle Jake's head!
Back to Delta and time for a horse ride for Caden--thanks Paul and Jake for helping him!
A true cowboy needs a hat!
Caden even got to feed the horse.
Miss Brynn got up close and personal and loved it!
Layne and Caden were playing outside Nell and Jake's house when we got back and captured this awesome picture--a great way to end the day!
