Our Colorado trip was a blast!! The Lord really blessed our time there. Some vacations you are ready to go home at the end of the week, but this one I think we would have loved to stay an entire extra week. It was SO GREAT!!! We stayed at a Young Life camp called Trail West. Young Life is an organization that reaches out to high school kids who are disinterested in God and shares with them about the Gospel. They have summer camps all over the country for the high schoolers and Trail West is the only Young Life family camp. In CO we met up with my moms side of the family. It was so much fun to be with all the aunts, uncles, cousins, and our grandparents. While at Trail West we went swimming, played frisbee golf, went on an off roading jeep ride to a ghost town St. Elmo, played ping pong, pool, and fooseball (sp?? :), went white water rafting, went hiking, climbed on the ropes course, rode horses, and hung out. There was so much to do there!! One of the high lights was the Wrangler Breakfast. We got on horses early in the morning, went on a little trail ride until we reached our destination. They cooked us breakfast outside. You even had to catch your french toast (they actually threw it to you :). I will post some pictures of that. These are just some of the many picture we took there. I will work on posting some more later.
