Fourth of July

Starting our road trip in our Van.

For the 4th of July this year we went camping with the Andersons and the Johns up in Silverton Colorado. It was the most beautiful picturesque place ever.
Our tent spot.


First night the kids and Art did some hiking.

Sitting around the Camp fire. Telia brought fun little camping chairs for the kids.


More little hikes around our camping spot.



We visited some cool waterfalls in Ouray Colorado, and went swimming in their famous hot springs pool.




On Sunday we went to church in Durango. After we ate lunch by the river and saw a really cool hot water springs formation.


Art and the Boys went hiking, and while on their hike, Wesley got a bee bite right on his cheek. The next day it was so swollen. Poor kid was such a good sport about it.




In Silverton Colorado we went to the fun Fourth of July Parade. The kids loved it and got a lot of loot.

We also saw the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Steam Engine.





That night we saw the best fireworks ever in Silverton Colorado, who knew? The sound reverberated off all the surrounding mountains. It was such a fun, beautiful camping trip. Great place, great people, great food and great memories made. Thanks everyone.
