Colorado Trip

A little late but here are some pictures from our trip to Colorado, July 4-11th...
We left home on July 4th and drove halfway to Raton, NM. We found a spot to enjoy the 4th of July fireworks.
Then we drove on to Vail, CO where we stayed for 4 days. It was wonderful. This is D and the dogs in Vail Village on the first day we were there.
We went hiking on the first day and enjoyed these views.


And this is what the dogs did the rest of the night.

More hiking pictures. And these pictures really don't do it justice. Everything in Colorado is so picturesque.

We weren't far from Breckenridge so we drove over there one day to shop and eat. Here are the dogs chilling by the creek in Breckenridge.

Then on the last day we went on another long hike. We saw this 50 foot waterfall but I couldn't get a really good picture of it without falling off of a cliff.
Ivan enjoying the scenery on our lunch break.

On the way home we stayed one night with our friends Krista and Dustin.

Then we saw some sights near Colorado Springs. Here is a family picture at the Garden of the Gods.
And we drove up to the top of Pikes Peak.
The dogs loved the 46 degree temperature at the top of the peak.
