visit from Ed's parents

Ed's parents came for a visit for Ed and his dad's birthday. The kids had school off all week so we went and explored CO Springs. We got to do a lot of fun things. WE went to Seven falls, there are over 200 steps to the top of the water fall, it is really pretty and tucked inside the canyon.

We went to the Fossil Beds and here is a picture of a huge redwood tree that is petrified.

We found this park in Manitou Springs that had this cool toy. Ed had so much fun playing with the kids and making it go really fast so they would fall off.

We went to Garden of the Gods, it is beautiful mountains that the rocks are so unique and amazing to look at, we enjoyed hiking around and exploring.
Here are 2 camels kissing.

We went to Cave of the winds, I thought this was a fun picture, they have these boots sticking out of a hole like someone fell in the kids thought that was funny.

This is the ladder that they used when the cave was first discovered to get in and out of the cave.

We took a day trip to The Royal Gorge which is in Canyon City, it is a huge bridge that you can drive or walk across, it is above the Arkansas river. We took a trolley across to the other side, walked across on the bridge and took a ride to the bottom to the river. Was such an amazing view.

Crossing the bridge, Tyler is A LITTLE EXCITED, lol
