Summer Vacation

Since Hadley is such an easy baby, we decided to take a family vacation.  On Friday night, we went to Canon City and stayed at a hotel.  The pool was so cold so Brax stayed in the hot tub.  Then, on Saturday, we went to the Royal Gorge.  We rode the train and gondola, saw bighorn sheep, played on the playland, walked across the bridge, and had lunch.  Then, we went to another hotel in Colorado Springs.  That pool was heated, and Brax swam for about two hours.  Then, on Sunday, we visited the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.  Brax loved everything, and Hadley enjoyed the ride.  It was a fun vacation, but Mom and Dad were pretty tired at the end of it.
