Steamboat Springs

Last weekend we (Caleb & his parents) jetted off to Steamboat Springs, CO for a winter getaway. We had been invited by some friends that also have a son Caleb's age. We flew in to Denver and then drove up, Caleb was so excited to get to play in the snow. My little man did not sleep at all on the early morning flight, and was a little disappointed when we landed in Denver with no snow on the ground. But his disappointment was short lived as we reached the foothills and the snow started falling. Caleb had a BLAST playing in the snow and learning to ski.

Just landed in Denver
C wondering where all the snow is
Finally he gives in & falls asleep
just as we reach the foothills and the snow
