Our trip to the top of Colorado!



For our 8th wedding anniversary on May 22nd, we decided to treat ourselves to a "cool' day - literally.  It it getting into the 90's already and we wanted to get out of the heat, so up Pike's Peak we went on the cog railway where we needed jackets to keep warm at 14,000 feet!  We actually had been planning this trip since Thanksgiving as I waited on Black Friday for some free tickets.  We had driven to the top of Pike's Peak previously but had always wanted to take the cog railway, so we got in line and went up the mountain.  The views from the train were breathtaking and Keagan was so well behaved.  The seating was a little cramped, but between mom and dad's laps, he did just fine!



Once we got up to the summit, Keagan almost got blown away by the wind.  We enjoyed the high altitude donuts but were ready to head back down.  We had a great day as a family and couldn't be happier to share our wedding day with our wonderful son!


Pike's Peak donuts are worth the trip!

Amazing view from the Summit

Hold on to your babies - they might fly away!
