Fun In Breckenridge Nov. 24, 2008

Disclaimer: I had a really hard time with the pictures on this one. Sorry:(

Granny and Grandpa went to Breckenridge over Thanksgiving so the girls and I decided to crash their party! We had a blast although it was definitely more of a comedy of errors than anything else. The drive up was very uneventful and the girls were as good as gold. When we got to the "mountains" as Abby kept calling it, we met Granny and Grandpa "in town." We followed them back to their condo and then went back "in town" for lunch. We had great burgers and afterwards we decided to do a little bit of walking. We walked, Lissie decided to run towards the street!!! She also wanted to go into a jewelry store that dinged every time you walk through the door. When I made her stop, she screamed the entire way home until the last two minutes and then she passed out in the car! Isn't she the picture of sweetness and innocence?!
After we got back and put Lissie down for a nap, Abby, Granny and I all went for a hike! Really just a walk along the road. We did walk in the snow though so Abby called it a hike. She loved picking up the snow and throwing it in the air, and at Granny and at Mommy. She also loved eating it. I couldn't resist the picture of my first baby's little bootprints. Aren't they adorable? On the way back to the house, we found a snowman...well, part of a snowman. He was missing eyes, arms and hair, so Abby and Granny had fun fixing him.




































After Lissie's nap, we went back into "town" Abby loved calling it that, and went looking for a very special toy store. This time I was smart enough to remember the stroller so both girls were captive and I didn't have to worry about Lissie in the street again! The toy store was wonderful. It had a place in the back where the kids could play! There were slides, and trampolines, bouncy horses and even a kitchen and art station. Both girls loved it. We spent a very very long time there. Since we had spent so much time at the toy store we decided just to eat dinner at home. Mom outdid herself on the grown up food and Abby loved the soup Granny made for her. Lissie on the other hand was not thrilled and ended up getting soup all over her and Granny. It was very funny to watch:) After dinner Abby wanted to go on another hike so we put Lissie to bed in her pack n play and took Abby for a short walk to see some "christmases"(lights). Of course, we spent most of the time throwing snow again! I also had to show you where Abby spent most of her time in the condo, on the stools we used to block Lissie from the stairs! Well, that was day one. I was exhausted by the end and looking very forward to a nice nights sleep. Too bad I was sharing a bed with Abby and although I put the child to bed at 8pm, she would not settle until 1am. Then at 3am, Lissie decided that she was uncomfortable and made fussing noises on and off until I finally gave up all hope of rest at 6am.
