Growing up, my family took many family vacations. I know it was a sacrifice for us to go, but my parents always wanted the best for us. We enjoyed being together and experiencing many neat places wherever we went...
This was one of many trips to Colorado where we loved to snow ski. This particular trip was with our church youth group.

This is a trip that my grandparents, mom and Aunt Cathy took all of the kids to Colorado for sight seeing. We stayed at a campground called, Fun Valley. We visited many neat places, water tubed, and met lots of boys. :)
Tubing with some of the boys we met.
We stopped on the side of the road and fed these very tame deer.
Traffic was stopped due to farmers herding their sheep across the road.

What fun memories! LOVED the spiky yellow snow hat on you- snow skiing is a blast :-)
Family vacations make some of the best memories... I can't wait to start taking our girls on trips...Julie would love that!
I think you and I had the exact same childhood! We vacationed in Colorado, New Mexico, Florida, you name it.... Vacationing is still my VERY favorite past time. When I think of having kids, traveling is the first, most exciting thing I can think of doing with them. We should plan a trip for the 5 of us!!! : )
Oh, what fun memories!! I about started crying. (might be b/c of the lack of sleep) I made Drew look at all the pictures & told him I can't wait to take family vacations. I asked him if he could wait & he said yes b/c he wants to wait until the kids are old enough to remember the vacations. Those are definitely some of the best memories!! Thanks Mom & Dad!
