The kids were put in jail today in the Old West Town at the Royal Gorge.
So you all know, Joss dresses herself these days! Mommy is no longer responsible for her ensemble!
They must have had at least 10 rides and each time changed horses.
The kids were full of energy as usual!
The tiny monkey did great with the potty training away from home all day.
At the bottom of the vertical coaster.
Inside the vertical skyway.
At the bottom of the Vert.
The skyway tram...yes, hanging by a cable!
Joss danced on stage with the singing puppy (big surprise) while her brothers were too shy.
Mmmm...tomato juice.
And a picnic lunch.
We took the trolly across the Royal Gorge bridge...
Looks safe enough...
So we thought we'd walk back across...and the wind kick up to like 100 mph and the world's highest suspension bridge was very clearly bouncing up and down and swaying back and forth.
I managed to snap a picture looking down through a crack in the bridge floor...below, rapids of the Arkansas River.
Mountain boys.
Joss wanted to ride the horse and carriage.
Of course, the baby goats were a hit.
We enjoyed the carriage ride.
And the Frontier man was enthralled with Jossie.
Jake tried out mommy's birthday present: a Camelback.
And Paul Bunyon's chair.
We did quite a bit of hiking. Everyone was troopers.
The kids were very patient with all the picture taking since it was "Mommy's Day!"
The Royal Gorge.
Joss tried mommy's flower in her hair.
The boys tried to climber higher than one another on the rocks.
And Joss sang a song to mommy...
using the blow dryer for a microphone.
The vase Jake made for mom...and Tye made mommy some Sunflower seed balls to plant later this spring. Soooooo sweet! And it was even better to have Nick celebrate with us this year!!!
Hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day, too.
