Bittersweet Colorado Trip

This is a really hard post for me. As most of you know my Grandpa is very ill with Pulmonary Fibrosis. It is now to the point that when he leaves the house he is confined to a wheel chair and is on oxygen 24/7. The doctors aren't giving him much time and he doesn't think there is much time left either. It was so great to be able to see my grandpa one more time but it was also very hard. It is hard to see someone you love so much go through this. This is a weekend I will never forget. I will take from it so many wonderful memories to cherish! He has already given me so many memories that I cherish and this will be the cherry on top.

Poor Elizabeth!! She had to wear an eye patch on the way to Colorado because on Wednesday (the day before we left) her brother poked her in the eye and scratched her eye. She is on medicated eye drops until they run out. She's not too thrilled about it!

I had to take this picture of him putting the bowl on his head!
This is the train at Tiny Town in Colorado. It goes all around the park and I have been going on this train since I was little and it is so cool to be able to do that with my family!

In the caboos are Taylor, Zach & Elizabeth. They had such a great time!

All of these little houses were donated to Tiny Town and are kept up by volunteers and the people who donate them. There are about 50 little houses here and they are all so creative!

This beautiful woman is my grandma! She is so special to me! I love her so much!

This is the highest I have ever seen this creek and the highest my Grandpa has ever seen it! It was so pretty!

I had to push them both at the same time that got a little tricky at times!

Elizabeth couldn't get high enough!

Here is the most wonderful man in the world! My Grandpa! I love him so much!

The "Kids" had a blast at the park that is right across the street from my grandparents house. This is the same tire swing Nicole and I used to play on when were little and visit!

Nicole was the only adult brave enough to do the Tilt-a-Whirl, I just can't do that anymore my stomach won't let me! :(

You can't tell who he looks like can you?? :)

After the Alpine slide we went to the Red Rocks! What a gorgeous place! It is so amazing seeing all of those big red rocks and the shapes. Makes you really think how something like that was made. Did water make the rocks eroud like that? Was it God who put them there like that? I think a little of both. Just Beautiful!

This is so cute!
