Our little family vacation was fast and fun! After making a few stops on the way up, we got into Ft. Collins Friday night just in time to eat before the kids totally melted down. We checked into our hotel and the girls loved it! We finally got to bed once the excited wore off a bit. The next day we got up, had breakfast and drove around campus a little bit to see what was the same and what had changed. We had a delicious lunch at The Pickle Barrel. Then off to Cheyenne! The girls got cowgirl hats and we watched some of the rodeo. Clara and Nora LOVED watching the horses (Nora from a safe distance, of course) Then to the fun carnival rides. The girls had a lot of fun. Brian was a good sport and rode since Nora was too little to go without him. We ended the day at the rodeo with some funnel cake. Back to Ft. Colllins for dinner at Beau Jo's. There was a small company offering carriage rides. What a great way to add to our day. We finished off with some ice cream at Walrus and back to the hotel for bed. The next day we got up to do some swimming. Nora was not into it, but Clara was a little fish in the water. We then headed to my mom's for some lunch! WHEW!
