We are traveling back to our home in Texas. It is sad to see the mountains with tall pine and aspen trees, shrink down into the desert of New Mexico, then the plains of Texas. I love living in Texas where my family is, but I wish we had a second home in the mountainsContinue reading “Pagosa Springs Day#9 and 10 (The End)”

Pagosa Springs Day#8
Today was the Piedra river hike. I did not bring my downloaded map or my watch so I’m not sure how far we hiked in but we stopped at a beautiful deep ravine. Alex and the kids put their feet in the ice cold water to see how long they could last. Brenden did theContinue reading “Pagosa Springs Day#8”

Another wonderful day in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. This morning we got up early to hit a few shops in Pagosa Springs before our first hike. Alex found a wonderful store called “Made in Colorado”. I spent a lot of money on souvenirs and I highly recommend this store! Then we hiked the Opal Lake Trail.Continue reading “Pagosa Springs Day#7”

Alex threw a water soaked football back and forth with the kids for aContinue reading “Pagosa Springs Trip Day #3”
Pagosa Springs Trip Day#2
We set our alarm to wake up at 7am, just so I could have breakfast at Cracker Barrel! My favorite breakfast place located just in the parking lot of the Ashmore Inn & Suites Hotel. The kids both got HUGE mugs of hot cocoa topped with whip cream and syrup. Everyone in the familyContinue reading “Pagosa Springs Trip Day#2”
