Colorado
We took our first big family vacation to CO with Grandma, Grandpa, Mitchell and Alyse! They camped in the Moraine Campground in the Rocky Mountain National Park and we stayed in a cabin nearby in Estes Park. We did 2 "big" hikes (4 miles and 6 miles). You both had a great time riding on our backs. Quinn did some hiking with us on foot too. Quinn slept very well, Sawyer did not, although he did take good naps in the Ergo during the long hikes. Quinn got to stay in the tent and camp one night with Grandma and Grandpa and did a great job! It rained about three nights and one full day, so that was a bummer bc we only got to do the campfire one night, but the other days were gorgeous.
Long 10 hr drive. Daddy drove though the night so you guys could sleep. This worked pretty well.

Mitchell named this hill behind the campsite "Quinn's Mountain" and you loved hiking it with him.

Waiting at Sheep Mountain for the Big Horn Sheep to come down, but we never did get to see them. :(
This was the one animal Quinn talked for weeks about seeing before the trip.
This elk visited our cabin one night!
