April in Colorado

One morning I decided we were going to take our school books with us into the woods, and make it a picnic, ohhh or we could do a hotdog roast... and stay out until Aaron got off work and then spend all evening in the woods......yeah I get carried away with ideas sometimes. We did get some time in the woods, but school never got done that day and it was a lot of trouble. I've got to master the KISS system....keep it simple stupid. This shelter is really cool though, and we built a fire in the stone fireplace and the smell of the fire and the pines and the sound of the creek, it was an idyllic setting. 

I want to live in this shelter, or at least camp here a few nights. It feel so "Little house on the prairie"

If you are driving by and not watching you will miss it because it blends so perfectly into the hillside.


Cooking their hot dogs on sticks I whittled sharp with my new pocket knife.....they think I'm so cool. LOL

Isaiah's favorite thing to do is chuck rocks into the creek.


His shirt says "Major Hunk"....'nuff said.

Rocks, water, dirt, digger toy....its a little boys dream day.

Levi eventually lost this little boat in the current, but it was fun while it lasted. Next time we'll get some kite string so we don't lose out boat.


This was the end of the afternoon and the reason we never got to the books. Rock verses baby skin. ;( We patched him up with our new first aid kit (so thankful Aaron picked one up over the weekend) and drove back to the hotel. He got a nap and all was well again and we still hauled Aaron back out for another hot dog roast that night.
