Spring Break 2009

This week was great because it was Justin's spring break. I went to BYU and never got a spring break, so this was exciting for me. (although really it doesn't make that big of difference, just the idea of spring break is what is so exciting!)

So, we took a two day trip down to Colorado Springs and spent time doing touristy things. We went to Garden of the Gods for a day and hiked around, had a picnic. It was beautiful there! We stayed in a cheap (but clean) hotel and went swimming in the pool. The next day we went to the caves and cliff dwellings in Manitou Springs. We were going to go to the Ghost Town Museum too, but we were tired.

I think the caves were my favorite part. I really like caves. The cliff dwellings were fun though because the other times I've been to things like that, it's just looking at them. This time we got to go inside and see all the different rooms. It makes me very grateful for my roof and my carpet, and pretty much the comfortable-ness of my life :)

I'm so jealous! That's my home! Next time you go down there, take a tour of the Glen Eyrie castle. It's very cool.

I totally remember going to those cliff dwellings as a kid. I thought it was awesome and want to take my own kids there. I'll have to see how far away it is.

Yeah... next time we go home to CO I'll have to go to those cliff dwellings too.
Looks like you two had a fun spring break!
