Campfire and the North Pole....

So, the people we are renting from left us this little fire pit....perfect for smores....So, one night we had smores...it was actually the same night the wild fire was in our backyard (okay...probably about 6 miles away give or take a few)...kindof felt guilty trying to make a fire while the firemen were trying to put it out....Anyway, the kids had fun, and I took only one not so great picture....
Saturday we ventured out to the North Pole, Colorado....lots of fun, the kids LOVED it...the adults quickly got sick of the circle rides....but all in all, it was fun.


the sky ride - good start...

peppermint slide....great fun watching the kids....they went down several times...


the cars...still haven't hit the circle rides, so all is well..


the train....


the ferris wheel

circle rides...you will notice the adults refrained from these unless Keira needed an adult in order to ride....then we had to take turns. Love that she is sucking her fingers while driving her plane...

We found out that the north pole is actually cold....the kids liked putting their belly on the pole...Caleb wanted to lick it, but we decided that would not have been in his best interest..

While Grandpa and Grandma rested (high elevation, lots of hills, we all needed a rest, except the kids of course), Caleb and his dad hit the arcade, Chloe, Keira and I went to feed the deer and llamas...they were really brave.
And we ended with Ice cream.....
Twas a fun day and the kids had a blast, that is what it's all about, right???? (we had fun too)
