Durango!!!

We took a trip to Durango this week. Mostly to relax and recover from all the craziness that December brought. Also to celebrate Bridget's 1st Birthday!! We enjoyed the snow (Jason went skiing and we all went sledding) some shopping and some great family time. Jax didn't ski this trip, but will hit the ski school at Sandia Peak next month.




I'm convinced Bridget will be more amused by the snow next year... For now she will remain a snow-bunny and would prefer to sip hot chocolate by the fire in the lodge.
Jaxon was a sledding trooper. After a big crash where he met the snow face first he was writhing on the ground. In between moans he said "Ohhhhh, Can I do it again!?! Ohhhhhhhh"




Jaxon got his own sofa bed which he immediatly jumped on and Bridget had a pack n'play.


Jaxon got to spend his dollar he'd been saving at the candy store. It took him a while to make a decision. (or to understand why a dollar can't buy everything)





We went out for a big dinner and ordered a mint ice cream cake for desert in celebration of Bridget's 1st year. The kids dug right in.

What an amazing way to celebrate Bridget!!! Maybe she won't remember this trip but these photos will be ingrained in her memory.
