Good Times


Last weekend we took our first family vacation (extended weekend) with our little pumpkin.  This year is the first in probably 5 that we have not done the drive to Colorado for a vacation.  We made the decision that 12 hours was too much time in the car for a 6 month old and so Beth did some research on where we could go and enjoy some of our favorite CO outdoor activities and not spend as much time in the car. The result? La Crosse, WI

Taylor got in some mountain biking and some trail running, and the family got in a nice hike (see above image from the Lookout we hiked to), bike ride, trip to an apple orchard, and a little bit of relaxation.
Stopping along the Hixon Forest trail to our lookout point to take a Mother-Daughter shot
Exploring Apples
Riding the Great River Bike Trail from Onalaska
Part of the HPT mountain bike trail that Taylor rode

All in all, a nice break from the daily grind :)

What a nice little break! I have found WI to be very pretty. I'd like to spend more time exploring...
