We first stopped in Copper Mountain (a great ski resort town in the Rockies). They were having a country festival that day filled with live music and activities for the kids. We had a beautiful lunch outside listening to the music before a huge thunderstorm rolled through:) We took cover for a while in the shops until it cleared! Then the kids got ride horses and pet some farm animals. We had hoped to go up the mountain on the chairlift but due to the lightning they had closed that down! We will do that next time we are up!

Lunch before the storm!
Ashley loves animals so this made her day!
She loved this baby lamb!
First time on a horse!
Cameron on the move!
Just a little chair for relaxing!
We then headed off to my favorite town in the Rockies, Vail! Since it was Labor Day weekend they were having a wine and food festival. I wish we could have stayed forever the food looked amazing!!!
Walking the streets of Vail!
In the water already!
I always take a picture of this hotel, they have the most spectacular hanging baskets!!
Pretty girl!:)
My cuties!
The fire station was having a fundraiser and as we passed by the kids got to check out the firetruck! We even think we saw Ryan (from Trista and Ryan of the Bachelorette); how funny!!
Sometimes you need to get a ride from dad!
The best ice cream I have ever had!! Yummy!
Vail has this amazing playground right by the ski slopes. They even have a huge pirate ship to run up on! Somehow Jeff always ends up on it:)
It was a great day and a great way to kick off my 37th year!!
Wish I could have been on that birthday weekend!! Myles is drooling over the fire truck. I'm drooling over the ice cream!!!
