Glenwood Springs Trip

Last weekend Paul, Kaden, and I drove up to meet our Davis' friends in Glenwood Springs. They were all there for a family reunion and we were really missing Dane, Jackie, Braden, and Lindsy so we drove up and spent the night so we could see them all. We had a blast! We got there Saturday afternoon and decided to look around the town a little bit.

When I was younger my grandma and grandpa Boom would meet my mom and I in Glenwood and I would ride back with them to stay with them for a couple weeks. We would always meet at this little Indian store and we always got to buy something there before we left so I really wanted to take Paul and Kaden there to check it out too.



Here we are in front of the store with the chief, he has been there since the store first opened. You can't tell but Kaden is thrilled to be here. And he loved looking at all the little trinkets inside the store. This place will always hold lots of memories for me and now Kaden can say he's been there too.


















Kaden really enjoyed walking around town, we strapped him in his stroller and wandered once it got dark and he had a great time just people watching and seeing all the sights, he's such a laid back little guy.























The first night we were there we said hello to the whole Davis' clan and then Paul and I went and had dinner while they celebrated Grandpa Schott's birthday. We went to a really good little bbq place called "Rib City." After that we went back to our room and hung out with Dane, Braden, and Lindsy for a long time. It was so fun to get back together and be able to just sit and talk and laugh late into the night. What great friends!





















Kaden and Braden had lots of fun together, what great buds they will be :)





We got a room with two queen beds so Kaden got a queen bed all to himself and boy did he love it, a guy can really stretch out in a bed that big. He slept so good through the whole night but looked so tiny.
















Nathan and Rosemary Davis had a little boy due the exact same day (March 19th) Kaden came on his due date and Rosemary had little Milo exactly one week after Kaden was born. It was fun to put the two of them together and see how they compared in size. Kaden looked huge, he is a very big boy. Maybe one day they will be great friends, the little due date buddies.























The next day we walked around the town with Lindsy and Braden, had a good lunch and then went to the springs for the rest of the day. It was so fun. We found a nice shady place and set up camp so Kaden wouldn't get burned and then took turns swimming and going down the slide. Kaden loved people watching and looking at the water, he was such a good boy all day long. He was a little too small to swim this time but next time he will love swimming and sliding I'm sure.

What a great trip, even though it was short we had a great time, it was so nice to see our Davis' friends and spend some time with them and also fun for Paul, Kaden, and I to have a little weekend getaway. I love our little family outings!
