Colorado Camping

In the middle of June we went camping in southwest Colorado, close to Mancos. It was gorgeous there! So lush and green, with streams running everywhere. It was pretty windy while we were there, so we ate our meals inside. And the wind on the way home was super crazy and scary (40-50 mph). 



A couple of razor rides

Beautiful scenery on our ride
 The kids picked flowers and raced them down the stream
Wes took turns dunking the kids into the freezing cold water (even Kimber who had a little ponytail in)


Kimber's first ponytail



Our friends that we camped with had their family up there too. The kids were in heaven to have some attention from a faux grandma that brought fun things to do like these balloons



The reason we were there was for a 3D bow shooting competition thing. The men all practiced one afternoon



And the kids got involved too. Hallie spent hours trying to hit the center target because she thought someone bet her $20 if she could hit it. She never did, but has since spent her money on a bow of her own



The kids all played really well together, and had fun helping make these bracelets


Jaxson and his friend spent hours and hours riding their bikes up a nature-made ramp and trying to get air
It was a beautiful spot to camp. The kids love it because they can roam around freely, and thats why I love it too!
