As a family with two little boys we said good bye to our family, friends, playgroup, beaches, playgrounds and everything we held dear for a two year adventure. Destination: Denver, Colorado. What did we know about it? John Denver liked it around here didnt he?

Toddlers embrace a new world with the wonder, enthusiasm and passion. Charlie said to me the other day. "Mum I just learnt about fall, its like autumn... but do pumpkins fall from the sky in fall?" I want to look at this adventure with the same sense of fun. So this is my attempt....

A beach in Colorado

                          
We went off on an adventure to feel the sand beneath our toes...
 Having a picnic dinner somewhere on the way..

 Here we are sand dunes and snow capped mountain in one shot.


 Woohoo feels good.

I made this picture for our room .....

He took a long time to come home from work.....

Things I learnt Camping


I'm not a natural camper, but have discovered that any activity in the beautiful mountains where all my boys are happy is worth pursuing! Here are some things I learn't camping this year:

Friends Double the Fun

 Sometime it snows...
 Whiskey is essential

 Take any tent you can borrow even if it sleeps 10!
  
 Rivers are fun...but a lot of work!

Two...even three desserts if fine!
