Vacation

We had a great trip to Colorado last week. DS1 said his favorite part was going down the big giant slide with Daddy. We did 2 hikes and played at several playgrounds and rest areas. The Children's Museum of Denver was fun. The boys tolerated the long car rides pretty well. The special case we had to mount the laptop in the car for DVD viewing was handy; we used it once on the way out and once on the way back. Our resort has a library of books, videos and toys for checkout; the boys watched Richard Scarry's Best ABC Video Ever dozens of times. On the way home they were even reciting dialogue. The wheelbarrow was a hit, too. One fun thing we did on the way home was play "The Alphabet Game" where they (and the non-driving adult) tried to find letters on signs and vehicles. We actually made it all the way to Z less than a mile before getting home on Sunday.
