We Made It!

We made it to Colorado. I am so impressed with our little girls. They have to be the BEST travellers EVER!!! It was a very long day that started at 4:30 am in Boston, and ended at 8:30 pm in Denver. That means it was an 18 hour day for the kids and they only slept about an hour total! They were excellent on the planes and just as wonderful in the airport. As soon as they saw Nana & Papa at the baggage claim in DIA, they went bezerk. They have been moving non-stop ever since.

Today, Saturday, we hope to see Uncle Mark. He's supposed to come see us and go out to dinner with us. We've already had a full day. We went shopping at Sam's Club, went swimming and have had baths. Lily & Callie are napping now but Ashley isn't interested in sleep at this point. She even went swimming.

On Friday, we took Callie to the mall to go shopping for some birthday clothes. She had a wonderful time picking out some stylish outfits at Macy's, (kid's got taste!). Lily was having a hard time watching Callie get gifts so she stayed home with Papa and got some 1:1 time with him. They went to a park, then had lunch at McDonald's. Lily was quick to tell me when she got home that she climbed too high in the playground at McDonald's that she got scared and got stuck and couldn't get down. A couple of bigger girls helped her find her way out and back to Papa. She isn't too likely to try that again!

Girls trip to Denver

Well, the girls are off to Denver. It was very sad to see them go. I don't think Lily actually realized, until she was walking away from me at the ticket counter to the airplane, that her Daddy was not coming with her. We told her several times, but I don't think she quite comprehended what was happening. I'm sure she was fine as soon as she got on the plane. I can't wait to hear how it goes in New York for them!

Here we go...

Well Mommy & the kids are ready to head out on vacation. We leave in the morning for a 3 week visit to Nana & Papa's home. We are also lucky enough to get to see Uncle Mark too. Watch for more posts about our grand adventures...

First Entry

Starting our blog here at www.blogger.com - and so far seems pretty easy! We've had all sorts of issues with fatcow, and are in the process of moving to www.1and1.com - and it also is the easiest Web Hosting site I have found. The girls leave early for Colorado to leave Daddy all alone for 3 weeks. They should have a gear time, but wish Mommy luck with all three alone in the airport.
