Mama took Jay Mac, Emily, Kaitlynn and I up to Pagosa Springs, Colorado and what an awesome time we all had!! Shelby, David and Renee' were invited but all had to work :(
We stayed in a wonderful condo that had a living area, dinning area, kitchen (fully furnished), 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a loft. Emily loved the upstairs and would climb up them and then slide down backwards on her stomach, especially in her P.J's (or Ba-yah's as Emily calls them). We had a great time watching movies one day, while Jay Mac and Mama went to a meeting so Jay Mac could get a free lift ticket. He went snowboarding with his friend Melissa who lives in Colorado Springs. It took a while for Emily to warm up to her, but she finally did on the last day. We went shopping and found the girls the cuttiest little shirts. We had ice-cream everyday, since we found a place that only charged $1.19 for a small (but I don't know why they called it a small it was HUGE!) The last day we ate ice-cream I was enjoying mine when all of a sudden the whole thing fell off the cone right onto Kaitlynn's shirt and my shoulder. I managed to save most of it and went to get a cup the eat the salvaged part out of. We went swimming everyday, except for the day we went to the Hot Springs, but more on that later. This was the first time Kaitlynn had gone swimming. She loved it! She would fall asleep everytime we were in the water for a while. Emily really enjoyed swimming also. She learned to jump off the side of the pool into my arms. She also floated by herself a couple of times! We all liked playing the game of motor boat. This is a game from my childhood that you play in the water. You hold the child and spin slowly and say "Motor boat, motor boat go so slow", then you spin a little faster and say "Motor boat, motor boat go so fast", and finally you spin really really fast and say "Motor boat, motor boat step on the gas". Emily would just laugh out loud really hard. One night instead of swimming we went to the Hot Springs. Thanks to Jay Mac for paying our way in!! They were wonderful and of course Kaitlynn fell asleep in the really warm water. We sat in one that was 105 degrees! They were very relaxing, but did not smell very well (like sulfur, yuck!). One afternoon Mama, Emily, Kaitlynn and I decided to go up Wolf Creek pass and then decided to go onto the slopes to see if we could find Jay Mac. Could not believe the amount of snow on top of the mountian. We found out that Emily will be able to take ski lessons next year! Mama already bought her pink ski pants, as you can see in the pictures below and we found a great pink coat for $4 up at a shop in Pagosa. We had such a wonderful time and look forward to going back again next and hopefully Shelby, David and Renee' will be able to come with us! Thank you Mommie for helping us make such great memories, we will treasure them for a lifetime!!!! Kaitlynn enjoying playtime on the floor in the condo.
