The Hernandez Family: Life as we know it.: Time in Colorado

Well two months later I am finally getting around to a little post about our trip to Colorado. We had a great time. I was very pleasently suprised at how well Simon did for the 10+ hour car ride, he napped some but mostly played contently with his cousin Ryan. The inconsolable crying didn't begin until the last 20 min. of our trip while driving up the mountain into Estes Park.

Chillaxin'

While in Estes Park we visited friends at Harvest House where my mom lived for awhile. Melissa and I each lived there with her for a time too. It was great to get to visit with all the women and see all the good things that are still going on up there. We also did the tourist thing and walked around all the shops downtown. I think the most unique thing we did was go to the Estes Ark and Teddy Bear Factory. Not somewherre we spent a lot of time but was cool to take the boys to see this giant ark like the one Noah built.

Pretty cool!

The next leg of our journey was to Aurora where my gramma Rose and uncle Blaine live. We stayed with them and they got to meet Simon for the first time. Simon was not really sure what to think of all these new people so he became very clingy and didn't want anybody but mommy. That made things a little rough and stressful for me. The big outing while there was going to the Denver Zoo we all had a good time and got to see some pretty cool animals.
