Camping!

Our camping plans had to change.  We had planned on going this week for several days.  But Chris has nine days off work and decided to go galavanting around the country, this time to the west.  ;-)  So after the blessing we took off for camping.  We drove about three hours or so north of Steamboat Springs.  The place we had planned to camp was closed, so we ended up staying at Pearl Lake and it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

 Sierra actually slept in the carseat, all bundled up.

 The night was absolutely perfect!  We all stayed warm enough, slept great, and had a great time!  Chris woke up earlier than us and when he woke us up hot chocolate was ready and scrambled eggs were being cooked.  Nice way to wake up!  :o)

 I just want to snuggle her!

 Is she not the cutest thing?

 We went for a beautiful walk along the lake.  Keira loved walking Jason and did a really good job!

 Our happy girl loves camping!

 We packed up and headed to our next site which was a two hour drive, east of Walden, CO, Michigan Lake.  It was a little cooler and not quite as pretty.  

 It got a little colder than we expected that night, below freezing.  Sierra didn't feel cold, but she woke up three times that night and just didn't sleep all that well.  Keira slept pretty well but kept taking off her hat.  I guess Chris didn't even sleep all that well.  We just hung out that morning and welcomed the warm sun!

All in all our first camping trip with Sierra was sooooo much fun!  And it really wasn't that hard with an almost three month old.  I think it will be harder next year with a one year old trying to explore everything on foot and with mouth.  But I hope we do a lot more of it!
