On July 7th we flew into Denver to meet up with all these crazy relatives...
...for a wildly good time in Estes Park at the YMCA of The Rockies.
This is the cabin where we stayed, with the porch overlooking the field, where we saw a black bear roam.
The camp is situated at altitude 8010, nestled in the incredible Rocky Mountains!
Lydia and Abigail took part of many activities offered by the camp:
Here are the Animal Detectives on an elk's trail finding...
 |
| tracks and scat (that's scientific for poop). |
 |
| All the little ones did parachute games. |
 |
| We made a real photograph of nature with photo paper. |
All the kids took a horse or pony ride from Jackson Stables at some point during the week.
 |
| Michelle helped me keep Shortcake steady. Abigail would get a little scared whenever the pony sneezed. |
 |
| After three trips around the track, Star lost her giddy-up. Lydia asked for a new pony, but instead we pulled one more trip around the track out of her. |
 |
| Sweet Kinsey and Lydia played and swung together. |
 |
| Emily and Lydia have bonded. |
The YMCA camp had a lot to offer, but for more fun and nature, we had to venture out...
