After having kids, a lot of people say that it is hard to imagine life before kids...this is true. But, I think it is also important not to let go of the things that were so much fun before having kids. Last week we took a little road trip down to Colorado Springs and hiked around some waterfalls. Granted, we saw waterfalls bigger on the side of the road in New Zealand, but it was still fun to get out and hike around. It's fun that we can continue to do some of the things that we did before Brooks came along - now it's just a little different. It takes us a little bit longer to get out of the door, with a little bit more preparation. The timing is essential - planning around eating and nap times. With all this said, it worked out great and we had tons of fun. Brooks was a trooper in the Bjorn!
We also stopped at the top and took some cute pictures.
The waterfalls were great, but the car ride home was just as fun. Chad and I played a little game with the iPod. We play songs and see who can name the artist first. Of course, Chad is amazing at this game. He does have a slight advantage since he downloads most of the songs on the iPod. The sweetest thing was that every once in a while he'd let me win. After playing that game for about 40 minutes, the last 20 minutes or so I found fun songs to listen to. We jammed out in the car to the likes of Lisa Lobe and Men at Work.
It was a fun day from start to finish.
