Witte Family Fun - Day 1

Winter Park, CO.
A beautiful place. The last time we were here was in Feb 2005, our Honeymoon!
It was really cool to see it in the summer time.
These are clouds, the kids were worried about the fires and thought this was smoke, but, it was just clouds!
It started to pour, so I turned the music off and we sang songs when suddenly...Bridget spotted a Rainbow!

It was much bigger than this, but with the winding roads of the mountains, this was the best shot I could get!
We actually pulled up to the cabin at the same time as Ben and Danielle, so they pulled out some games they had brought!
We had been experiencing 100+ degree days in Denver so it was nice to be in the 60s the majority of our trip. The property is huge and has a big yard with a "lake" attached.
We brought a tent to camp out one night.
While Danielle and I were making salads. Ryan and Veronica with their crew came. The kids enjoyed outside play AND water guns!
In case you were wondering Bridget has been in Hawaii tanning for the past month. 
(just kidding, she browns up so nicely just in one day)

We enjoyed each others company until a frisbee landed into the lake.
Then it was fun for us girls watch the men figure out how to get it out.
AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

It was a beautiful night, the sun was setting and it was so nice out.

We then came in for salads and chat.
Pizza Salad, Spinach Bacon and Egg Salad, and Chinese Cabbage Salad...
Beet and Goat Cheese Dip, Fruit Dip, and Bean Salad.
Everything was delicious.
Everyone fit in the cabin beautifully. We even had room to spare - *read* Liz and Cory, and Jared and Erin!
After dinner we went on a family walk.
Over the bridges and rivers, and through the woods.
The kids loved every second of their outdoor time.
One of the locals brought her dog over to see the kids. Juliet shouts "dah-gee" and is in heaven!
More talking and hanging out. Mason had a fun time too!
Grandpa Witte really wanted to play Bunco, so he set it all up and everyone was able to play.

There were even PRIZES!
It was so fun being together, relaxing, and reminiscing about old times. It is weird that we have all known each other for so long! 

We stayed up way too late, and laughed a lot.
It was a great first day in Winter Park/Fraiser.
