Colorado Road Trip!!

For Easter weekend, Bennett and I took a little vacate to Colorado to visit Lamont and Melissa. We had such a great time with their family! Melissa also had her family in town, which added to the fun weekend :) Here is a little photo gallery of our journey...

The beginning of the trip...please ignore our shabbyness. Road trips for me consist of mis-matching sweats and no makeup. Comfort comes first!


The Larsen brothers making us a yummy breakfast...biscuits, eggs, sausage, hashbrowns...the works.

Bennett and McKay (our nephew) snuggling at Carter's soccer game. McKay was such a cute little snuggle all weekend. Me and Bennett slept on an air mattress in the office, and McKay would always come in and snuggle in the covers with us and pretend to sleep. He is such a cutie!!


Carter (our nephew) is in the grey sweatshirt. What a good little soccer player! Sidenote: I haven't been to a kids soccer game in FOREVER. It has to be the most hilarious thing ever. All the little bodies running around after the ball is so fun. My favorite is when they score a goal and everyone is cheering for them, classic. Carter had a pretty good little team :)

Waiting intently for the ball. Notice how Carter is ready for anything, and the other kids to the right are chillin' :) Hehehe...so fun.

We all went bowling on Saturday afternoon...Bennett was a little irritated because he couldn't find a ball that fit his fingers correctly. After bowling 3 times per week for a semester, you would have expected him to slaughter all of us. Of course the "lack of proper equipment" meant he did not perform up to par. Excuses, excuses....just kidding Bennett. You did great :)

Dinner at Old Chicago Pizza. Very delicious! Sorry the pic is a little blurry :)

Uncle Bennett with Carter and McKay getting ready to dye some easter eggies! Yay!

Dying some eggs...we had like 12 colors to choose from! The next day we enjoyed some deviled eggs for dinner.

Loot from the Easter Bunny :)

Uncle Bennett and Aunt Jenna with Baby Tanner, Carter, and McKay. Tanner was blessed on Easter. It was so much fun to be in town for that!

The Larsen Fam :) Thanks so much for letting us come and visit! We had a blast!
The driving part was pretty good overall. I am not one that likes to drive for long distances...Bennett was so good and drove the entire time both ways!! I wasn't too sick on the way there, but coming home I was pretty nauseous. I also get carsick, so that did not help. But we made it home and had a good little trip :)
