Don't you just love those little face thingamagigs? Here's Maddie hitting a home run! ( Which is quite a shocker really, but IguessIshouldn't talk.)
Reid is what we call " our little pro baseball player," because unlike the rest of us, he's the only one who really has a chance of hitting a home run.
This year, our grandpa took us to the ROCKIES game! We got the best seats, right above the dugout! And every so often, a player would throw us a baseball. And guess what, he thru one right to Reid. I still can't believe it.
Here is me, Maddie, and Reid all sporting our baseball attire. Oh, and you see that bag I'm holding? Yep, well that held what I' d like to call " The Motherload!" Yep, we were chowing down loke we hadn't been fed in a week.
Maddie and I were playing around with the camera during the game, and I decided to upload this picture just to once again show Maddie's love for peace signs and all things good.
There was a ride at Vail called the bull ride. What it does is try buck you off its back by spinning and going up and down. We all went on it , except for Maddie. ( That, of course, is understandable considering that try not to get bucked off by a bull is on the top of most of our Things To Do Today) This is Grant trying to ride the bull, he was pretty bad stuff until he got on and started freaking out that he didn't even make it past level zero.
Well, unlike Mr. Chicken in front of me, I bravely rode the bull, and made it to level three!
Reid made it to about level two, although, even though we all know that he only made it to that level, he tries to boast that he surfed the bull.
Here we all are at a meet watching Maddie swim two lengths of the pool breaststroke. For her first year of swim team, she did pretty good! She was probably a little embaressed though, because of all of us whooping her on.
We found this really neat rock at Vail that overlooks the mountains, and we decided to take a picture. So if you're reading this and thinking that all Colorado is, is a giant square, it'll show you that the giant square has a lot to offer.
We rode up the mountain on a gondala. At the top of the mountain, there was a little observatory that named and talked about some of the mountains that Vail overlooked.
This is what a gondala looks like. ( Just a little help for those of you who are scratching your heads.)
This is Keystone where our fondest memeries will be of forgetting all of our luggage! We were about halfway there when we relized that we left our stuff at home. Even without our luggage though, we all had a fun time on the lake.
This is were most of our time was spent at Keystone.... the pool. We played a lot of games and just sort of chilled.
