Colorado in all it's awesomeness

CAUTION picture OVERLOAD!!!!!!!Every couple of years the Burtons go to Colorado for their family reunion. Josh and I could not get a whole week off of escuela and work so went from June 30th to July 4th. It was the perfect vacation, and made me grow to love the amazing family I married into even more. We played tons of card games, airsoft, got caught in a rain/hail storm, rode quads, read books and just enjoyed nature.
First---We stayed in this cabin between Durango and Silverton.

it was way fun playing pool(yep I suck)....and ping pong (suck even more)...and all the AIR SOFT WARS ( I pretty much hate violence in all its forms with the exception of air soft wars simply put they are A.MAZ.ING )

Then---We went on hikes


Everyone knows I hate hate hate heights..here's Josh proving that opposites do attract

Shanon trying to find reception haha


Naturally---Cute little cousins
Little Miss Kylie


Kaiden, Mazie, and Steven


And of course---spending time with Josh



Poor Josh got hit in the tooth with an airsoft bullet, which totally knocked it loose. He's such a trooper, he went to the dentist on Thursday and had to put in a bridge in order to fix it. He's hardcore.

It was such a great trip from begining to end. It was my first time to Colorado ever and I am soooo glad that we went. The food was excellent,family was a blast, the weather was perfect, luckily we were blessed with no car troubles, and heck I even liked having all the dogs around. Thank you Burton family for everything.
