This is where they ended up

Hubby had to head for Steamboat Springs, Co for ice driving for work. He asked if me and the kids wanted to go. We decided at the last minute on Thursday to go ahead and go. It was about 2 1/2 hours away from Rifle, but such a great drive. We headed there about 3:30 p.m. on Thursday. Boy did we see so many deers and elks through out the mountains (didn't have the camera out at the time). Friday hubby had to go ice driving while me and the kiddo's went running around and swimming in the indoor spa/pool at the hotel. This town is a big skiing place. Almost like Aspen, but with alot nicer people. It was beautiful with snow on roofs 2 to 3 feet high and the roads were cleared, but the side of the roads were almost to the hood of the truck. Friday night when he got back we went downtown and walked the streets and out to dinner to a steak place that you got to pick your own meat and you cook it. The kids got to sit on saddles. Saturday we got up and start headed home with making a few stops on the way home. We saw the Antelope in between Craig and Meeker they were crossing the road. We have seen deer, elks, moose, but this is the first time in 1 1/2 years that I've seen Antelope.

Sweetie Pie's friends birthday party

Last week we went to a birthday party for one of Sweetie Pie's friends from school. We went bowling. Rooster's been bowling before, but Sweetie Pie has not. The kids had a great time. We might have a family night bowling sometime in the future.

Another Beautiful Drive

Not bad for doing 80 mph down the freeway
Vista point

Rooster saw this one

These were about 200 yards away. New camera does great with the long range lense.

Sunset, again we were doing 80 mph.

We took a drive to the Mesa's today to check on our trailer that Scott is living in (where the trailer is it has alot of below 0 degree freezing nights) and well we just decided to make a day out of it. We love our weekend drive's. We haven't been able to do for a while with all the snow we have been getting hit with lately.
