Happy 4th of July! (Long post!)

We journeyed to Colorado for the 4th of July this year. It was lots of fun! Thursday and Friday we stayed with John and Chelsey (Landon's cousins) at their ranch house. It was so pretty there and the weather was perfect, it stayed right around 85 the whole time. Just to warn you this is a long post. :) As usual there are plenty of pictures!

Road trip! Linc did so good for his first road trip and being stuck in his car seat. Just a side note, these are taken at a potty break which is why he is not in his car seat, just in case you thought I was going all Brittney Spears on you. It's always safety first in my book.
Here is the ranch house we stayed in. It was so pretty and a great place to enjoy the 4th!
We got to drive around on the Rhino. It was lots of fun and quite dusty, by the time we got back it looked like I had a una brow and a stache.

The BBQ

The burger! Looks tasty, no?

Linc and I watched the fireworks together, until he fell asleep. That kid can sleep through anything!
the fireworks - The fireworks were so awesome! Quite a few people showed up for the show. There were a lot of little piro's running around with the ones that you can shoot...I can't remember what they are called, kind of scary but it was so fun!
FIREWORKS!

Saturday we left the ranch and went to Ben and Shelli's (Landon's cousins) cabin. They made us a delicious steak dinner and afterwords we relaxed in the hot tub for a bit. Lincoln wasn't digging the hot tub at first but after a while he calmed down and almost fell asleep in Grandpa Ralph's arms. He looked so cute in his little swimming suit!

Gunner LOVED it there. He seriously had depression when we came home.
