Addison's 1st Vacation

We made our trip to Colorado Springs last Wednesday. We started out by going to Seven Falls. Daddy did really well hauling Addison up the scary stairs.


She really enjoyed playing in the teepee

Ironically, a nice couple from Rockport, MO was visiting also and graciously took our picture.


Apparently there was a Santa Convention going on and some of the Santa's and Mrs. Clauses were staying at our motel so we just had to get a photo. They just loved Addison and gave her an early Christmas gift!

The second day we stopped at the Bear Park Nature Center and hiked a few short trails to find some bears...no such luck though.

We stopped at the GhostTown Museum to pan for gold.

And of course we had to take Addison to the North Pole. She loved going on the rides! We were amazed!

Late afternoon we made the drive up Pikes Peak.
The next day we went to Garden of the Gods where Addison enjoyed playing on the red rocks.




This photo is one of my faves with Addison and Daddy!





We also visited Cave of the Winds and played in the creek a bit. And of course, we had to sport the Husker jersey on game day! All-in-all we had a fun time. It was a lot of driving but a great first vacation!
