The North Pole

Yesterday we started to holiday season with a visit to The North Pole (here in Colorado Springs) to visit Santa and show him how good we’ve been.  Of course he already knew that Smile

Paint Mines

This weekend we took the kids to a local hike called the Paint Mines.  It was a fun walk with interesting rocks to climb on.  Always fun to see more of the beautiful Colorado.
