Easter in Colorado

Last weekend we met my family for Easter. We chose to meet somewhere that was close to halfway but still had some fun things to do. Our choices were Albuquerque or Colorado Springs. We were switching cars with my parents so I could get one that runs so we figured we should drive further since they were doing us the favor. Therefore we chose Colorado Springs. We took off Friday after work and ended up making it the whole way. It was a long trip!!



Nolan sent me this snapchat right before they took off.

I enjoyed catching up on our #highfamnews on Twitter along the way. We got there around 3:30 in the morning!
Saturday we spent hanging out around the town. But first, Matt had his first official meeting as a financial adviser. It looks so official, right!?



Nolan enjoys those selfies!





We toured Garden of the Gods.










We enjoyed lunch in Manitou Springs.



Then we split up. The girls went shopping, and the boys headed up Pike's Peak. We had a good time shopping some of the local stores; it was definitely not like shopping at home! The guys sent me a bunch of pictures from their trek up the mountain.





We headed back to the hotel so mom and Jadyn went for a little bike ride.


 They did make it out of the hotel, but I bet they wished they didn't. It was very windy!!


Sunday we opened our Easter gifts. 


Then we found a church to celebrate Easter. It wasn't anything we were used to, but it was a fun experience nevertheless. Then we enjoyed brunch
and had an Easter egg hunt! It was so fun!!  





We then made our trip back. We stopped in Albuquerque to get a package of cinnamon rolls from our favorite place, The Frontier. 



It was a great trip, and I am so glad we were able to spend it with my family!! Hope you all had a great Easter!
