A few weeks (almost a month!) ago, we headed to Estes Park to spend the weekend at the YMCA of the Rockies' Estes Park Center. We met the Alexander's for the weekend, and it was so much fun!
The Estes Park Center is beautiful. The scenery is amazing. The weather was wonderful. And because it's a YMCA-run place, there is so much to do! The Estes Park Center has many lodging choices, from hotel-style lodge rooms to single family cabins. We stayed in a lodge room. It didn't have a tv or air conditioning (two things that we did not miss over the weekend!). It was perfect for our family. The best part of our room? The view from our balcony!
The girls were pretty excited about our planned fun activities. Jenna had a pretty good Saturday itinerary for us. We got up bright and early and headed to the dining hall for breakfast.
After breakfast we headed out for a hike. Eric and Casey were great navigators!
The girls all had fun being out in nature. Cadence was a little clingy and wanted to be held a lot of the time.
Chloe and Elliette decided to get married.
Have I mentioned lately how happy I am to have the Alexander's an hour away?!
This was a neat prayer labyrinth.

Our Saturday didn't turn out like we had planned. The girls were exhausted after the hike and lunch, so we headed back to our room for a family nap (wonderful!). We made it to one activity with Jenna and Lucy, and then we headed to the pool. The girls love to swim! Elliette was doing great at jumping in and swimming by herself. Unfortunately, when we were getting out of the pool, she threw up all over the place! She seemed to feel okay, so we chalked it up to swallowing a lot of pool water.
