Colorado!!!

We spent last weekend and some of last week in Colorado. We spent the first part in Denver celebrating Ellison, our god daughter.  Her baptism was beautiful and she is such a happy baby!  We only took Elizabeth Magee with us --- such a treat for all of us!






This was Elizabeth Magee's first plane ride. She was beyond excited.  We spent Friday night in ATL because our plan left really early.  She woke up at 3:30 a.m. SO excited and kept asking when it was time to go to the airport!



Our first stop in Denver was to the neighborhood park....Santa was there!


Elizabeth Magee was a little hesitant but warmed up enough to talk to him (and told him she'd see him for dinner on the 22nd in Birmingham)!


Saturday night it SNOWED. Sunday morning we built a snowman before church.  We let him wear her extra hat.


Monday morning we headed up to Winter Park.  Elizabeth Magee went to ski school and Oliver and I skied most of the day.  After ski school, we were able to ski for about an hour together.  Elizabeth Magee loved it the first day!


Monday night, we went tubing!  When we pulled up, I had a flashback to junior high -- I'm 90% sure I've been tubing there about 20 years ago!


The second day of ski school, EM EXCELLED!  We picked her up early so we could ski together.  Her ski instructor came with us....he was fabulous!

Right after we took this picture, Elizabeth Magee raced by me and said, "See you later alligator!"  Oliver could not have been more proud ---- she went down almost the entire mountain by herself!


I can't say enough about her ski instructor.  He skied with her for two days straight!  We can't wait to go back!
