Aug Trip to Breckenridge Colorado








Just decided to start a blog..and there is no better time then...NOW!

Bret and I just got back from a fantastic vacation in Breckenridge where we finally got to spend some quality time with our families :)  The week was off to a rough start!  On our first day we decided to start on a easy bike ride from Breck to Frisco...on a nice PAVED path.  We were having a blast and really enjoying ourselves-when...Prent decided to go off-roading.  And off-roading he went.  He flipped over his handle bars and got some nice road-rash, an AC Separation, and a bruised knee.  After a trip to the Emergency room...the good news was..no fracture!  That was trip numero uno to the hospital that day.  Later we were enjoying a nice dinner in the condo when Chase decided to take a quick little nap in the mac-and-cheese pot on the kitchen counter.  Turns out he had not had anything but a beer (no water) to drink and was super dehydrated...leading to a fainting episode...and trip #2 to the emergency road.  These things usually happens in 3's and we were just waiting for someone else to go down.  Luckily- we made it the rest of the vacation with no more trips to the hospital.
We went on hikes, walked in town, went swimming, hot-tubbing, and of course went shopping.  Oh ya...and dont forget the eating part.  We did lots of that!  I am so glad I am no longer nauseated.  I really enjoy food :)  We had great weather until Thursday night when a huge cold front came in and it actually SNOWED.  Man...Colorado is wacko!
Bret had to head back to Raleigh on Sat, but I was able to stay and went to hang out with my AMAZING girlfriends.  That was much needed.  I really miss them.  Then back to NC I went- sad day.
