Back to Colorado and Charles visit

Hello everyone!! We are back in Colorado Springs!!! We missed our friends and church family here so much and we are so happy to see them all again ,only now I will be missing my friends & family in Florida all over again:) oh I know quit complaining..LOL anyway here is a pic of the kids in front of our new home.



There has been some snow the past couple days...enough snow to keep Uncle Charles in town a little longer. We started out Saturday at Garden of the gods where they were having a Long Horn Sheep Day! The kids learned all about the state mammal.They got their faces painted and did crafts and they were able to look out and see the long horn sheep on the hills. We all thought that was cool. They had touch tables set out for the kids to feel the fur of lots of Colorado's wildlife.







Then after that Charles and Jeff decided they wanted to go to the top of Pikes Peak so we went completely against my will!!!!( from Florida...FLATLANDS...ya know what I mean) So due to weather we could only go 13 miles up the road which was an elevation of 11,000 ft and the summit of Pikes Peak is 14,110 and the road was blocked off at Glen Cove.



We all got out of the van and took all kinds of pictures and met our friend Wilbur...the friendly fox!






We had so much fun. We went inside the gift shop took more pics and met Buddy Bear!




LOL we then decided we wanted to take Charles through Divide and into Florecent where we stopped at the best coffee shop ever to enjoy the best cookies and sweet roll ever!!!! It was snowing huge flakes and it was so pretty! We had so much fun and made all kinds of memories.


(Starting contest over the hot cholocate LOL)

So here are a few of our favorite pics from The Saturday with Uncle Charles!!!!
