Steamboat Springs, CO

**Lots of pictures included in this post!**

The drive from the Denver area to Steamboat Springs is absolutely beautiful! We drove through some amazing mountain passes, the long Eishenhower tunnel, and eventually down an eight mile hill into the valley. The condo we stayed at was great for our group of 14! 3 large, separated bedrooms with their own bathrooms,and a large common kitchen, living room, loft, and hot tub. It worked out much better than I could have expected.

We took the crew up the Gondola ride for a spectaclar view of Steamboat Springs. Uncle Brian also took some great pictures. It's hard to choose which pictures to post here and order for ourselves! After afternoon naps, we all headed on an easy hike at Fish Creek Falls. The kids enjoyed throwing rocks in the water and climbing over the large rocks in the river. It was so much fun to see all of the cousins interacting with each other and playing well together.

Alpine slide and tubing were the highlights of our second day in Steamboat. More on that in tomorrow's post!

I can't type well at all. I meant to say, "You were right about the Christmas card pic!"

Uncle Weebzy - Brian pruned the tree in our front yard! I was hoping he'd get to the ones in the back yard but we ran out of time :)
