Hattie's First Vacation~Part 1~

We are half way done with our 16 day vacation visiting friends and family in Colorado and South Dakota! Wow we have been going, going, going this last week having so much fun! Our baby has been quite the little traveler! She didn't make a sound on the plane ride from Dallas to Denver, slept 5 out of the 6 hour drive to Spearfish, South Dakota, and slept for the entire 3 hour trip to Pierre! Hattie is such a content baby and just goes with the flow! I think she is enjoying her first trip!
Here is what we have been up to over the last week! And this week we will be visiting alot more friends and family!
We got in Thursday July 2nd.
Friday: drove up to Estes Park to visit great grandparents, Cliff and Sarah! Hattie had a great time, and of course, we took lots of pictures! We also walked around the downtown.
Saturday: Went out to breakfast with Brent's college roomie, Ryan and his wife Tracy. In the afternoon we had a 4th of July lunch. We got to see Steve and Adele again and meet their daughter, son-in-law, and new grandaughter! It was fun to talk to another new mom. We took the babies on a short walk around the lake. That night we left Hattie with Nana and we went to a Rockies game!
Sunday: drove the 6 hours to Spearfish
Monday: took Hattie through Spearfish park and fish hatchery. Sheila had us all over for a bbq. We got to meet her two nieces. Miranda is only 11 days older than Hattie ( although Hattie is bigger)
Tuesday: I went with Sheila to see her wedding location outside of Spearfish. Her wedding is May 1st, 2010
Wednesday: we went hiking in the Spearfish Canyon!
Thursday: drove 3 hours to Pierre! Hattie also got to go to a red hat party with grandma!
Friday: Hattie got to meet Jodi and Jean Cowan!
