Grandma & Grandpa Hornickel's Visit

Kyle's parents came to visit as well! They brought their pop-up camper with them so we could take Evie on her first camping trip! On Wednesday we headed up to Steamboat Springs and stayed at the same campground that we stayed at for Kyle's birthday party last year. It rained for quite a bit of the time we were there, but the rain held off enough for us to make it to Strawberry Hot Springs (our favorite spot), Fish Creek Falls, and for Mary Jo and I to go down the alpine slide once. Evie did really well on her first camping trip and she managed to go mosquito bite free (which was amazing because they mosquitos were AWEFUL!) She also was mesmerized by the campfire. :)


This is at the bottom of Fish Creek Falls. Evie really is under that hat... :)

After we got back from Steamboat, we went to Colorado Springs to take the cog train up Pike's Peak and to see Garden of the Gods. Evie's first train ride! She was a bit antsy but all in all did pretty well. Another fun visit! (And Evie has 2 teeth now!!)

Story time with Grandma Hornickel.
