Witt Vacation 3- Keystone & Biking

Wednesday was pretty low key. Dad & Mom Witt went for a long drive through the mountains and the rest of us hung out at the house most of the day. Matt and I did take a quick bike ride in the morning while Nicole watched Nathan for us :)

Grandma J learned pretty quickly that her new Camelbak water bottle could lure Nathan her way :)

Dinner after meeting up with Dad & Mom Witt at the Silverthorne Outlets. It was Matt & I's night to cook!

The girls gave us our belated birthday present.

They got us a helicopter ride in Colorado Springs!! Yeah...I think I'll take a late gift every year :) We were completely surprised and really excited for that date night!

That night, after Grandpa & Grandma J went to bed, the rest of us took a walk to Keystone. Matt is lighting the way for us with his head lamp. I think my parents got this for him a few Christmas's ago. He loves it. Must be a guy thing.

Love these chairs sitting out on the street in Keystone. Cars and bike aren't allowed to drive through the streets. It's for walkers only! Very cute little town and beautiful all lit up at night.
Photobucket

My boys.

The 3 of us.

Lovin' on my sisters!

I tried this shot several times with not a lot of success! So the quality is not great. But you get the picture: Lovebirds in the middle of the lighted trees!
Photobucket

So Thursday was Nathan's 1st birthday! We started out his big day with a bike ride. Here he is ready to go in Jamin's bike trailer.
Photobucket

Well, now he is ready to go. We thought the doggy neck pillow would be helpful, but it pushed him forward to much.
Photobucket

Matt & I had our bikes along with us. Everyone else rented from this nice shop in Breckenridge. We started on the trail in Breckenridge that headed towards Frisco.
Photobucket

Matt & Nathan are off!
Photobucket

Nicole and I apparently are not.
Photobucket
In a minute we will be, after our picture!

Family shot on the way back towards Breckenridge! Thank goodness for posts to balance my camera on :)
Photobucket

Mom took one this time. You can see the mountains better in this one.
Photobucket

Stopped at this little store on the way back that had seats and water for weary bikers!
Photobucket

Pretty nice!
Photobucket

Siblings...yep, I'm putting myself in this group. That's what marriage does for you!
Photobucket

Nathan did great! He slept for a half hour or more and the rest of the trip he just took in the scenery :) We biked for about 2 hours.
Photobucket

On the way back to the house for Nathan's birthday celebration (after lunch and a nap and a bath)! He's playing peekaboo with Grandma & I. "Where's Nathan?"
Photobucket

"Peek-a-boo!!!"
Photobucket
The kid loves this game :)

And his Grandma Johnson.

Pictures of his birthday celebration coming up next!

Witt Vacation 2-Boating

On Tuesday, we went for a ride on a pontoon boat! Lake Dillon wasn't far from us so we headed out after Nathan's morning nap. Here's Nathan having breakfast with Grandpa J. Grandpa J is trying to get Nathan to share his food with him...with little success :) But wait until the end of the week to see the fruit of his efforts!
Photobucket

Nathan, ready for a boat ride!
Photobucket

The dock.
Photobucket
The clouds are so pretty. The sun moved in and out of the clouds the whole boat ride. It made for an enjoyable trip!

Ready to set sail!
Photobucket

All suited up!
Photobucketv

Lunch time already.
Photobucket

This life jacket made sitting in the stroller a little difficult.
Photobucket

Captain Courtney! We're in trouble. Ha ha. Just kidding, Court! You were an excellent navigator.
Photobucket

Probably our best family picture yet. Nathan and his food. He loves it. That would be ham hanging out of his mouth, by the way.
Photobucket

Grandma & Grandpa cuddling up on the back of the boat.
Photobucket

Now we're in really good hands!
Photobucket
I love this picture. So cute of Nathan and his Papa.

Breaking for some water.
Photobucket

Good times with his Aunt C!

Mom Witt and her girls having too much fun :)

Walking around the boat.

This kid knows how to have a good time.
Photobucket

Daddy giving Nathan a little push...
Photobucket

For some reason, he found this hysterical.
Photobucket

Life is good.
Photobucket

So cute hanging out with his Grandma & Grandpa J.

What's Nathan doing now?
Photobucket

Photobucket

This kid is very loved!

Heading back to shore.

Photobucket

Testing out the bike trailer for Nathan back at the house. Kyle & Jen were nice enough to let us borrow Jamin's! It works great.
Photobucket

A little Hands&Feet. Nathan is into it.
Photobucket

For some reason, every camelbak water bottle around, he thought was his to drink. Probably because everyone let him drink it!
Photobucket

The obvious winners...
