Aspen

So last weekend my whole family met in Aspen, Colorado for a quick trip with everyone there! With our family there is always garunteed laughs and entertainment and this trip did not fail to please!

We didn't meet in Aspen until Friday but our family and Becca's wanted to extend the trip by a day. So we got up early on Thursday to spend the first day in Glenwood Springs. Have you ever stayed in a hotel room with 4 adults, a 6 year-old, a 3 year-old, a 1 year-old, and an 8 month old? Can we say interesting and non-stop craziness!

Hadley quite enjoyed herself at the diner in Glenwood Springs! I didn't get any picture of us at the Hot Springs pool, but if I had the picture would have looked like Hadley trying to drink the disgusting sulfur water while the rest of were trying to keep our mouths as far away as possible!

So after dinner we headed over to the Hotel Colorado to check out the ghosts. This is a old hotel that is supposed to be haunted and has lots of stories of ghost sitings. Luke was so scared the entire time (for real) and just wanted to go, go, go!

Steve checkin' out the penthouse level where the little girl chased her ball off the top and fell to her death. He wouldn't go any farther than about half way up those stairs!

Hadley had blowout at dinner all over the back of her little dress so Steve would only carry her like this! And yes we went into the bathroom to clean it up before this but I guess it didn't matter to him!

Group photo in the hotel.

So we got a private tour of the basement and attic from a maintenance guy. Steve is sitting in the exact chair where a main hung himself like 100 years ago in the attice. Why he wanted this picture who knows?

Our first evening in Aspen- walking to dinner at a famous diner!

Kiddos all bundled up!

Hadley woke up at 5:30 on Saturday morning and would not go back to sleep. Since we were in a lodge and didn't want to wake everyone up so we got her out to be in bed with us. This is what she looked like about 7:15... completely exhausted!!

Cousins lovin' on Hadley- Foxx and Fiona loved her!

Getting ready for a family hike! It was pretty cold so Hadley was COMPLETELY bundled in her winter gear- doesn't that look comfy?! Not really!

Foxx- cutest little boy EVER!! I love his cute little personality!

I got freezing so Ashton lent me his vest!

The whole Gardner family!

This is what it looks like when we try to take a cousin's picture...

We went to the John Denver memorial (don't ask me why they made this?!). Steve is singing (way off tune I might add) here to Hadley, he can be quite strange at times :)

We love Aspen- gorgeous isn't it?

It was a great and relaxing weekend filled with lots of eating, shopping, and family game playing! I love my family!
