Estes Park Day 8


Last full day in Estes. It began with Evan and Abbie joining Jeff in bed. Soon after this much laughter was heard as apparently Abbie was quite the instigator with Evan. He is the first person she asks for every morning, I love how much she loves him already.




Trying to figure out how to put her shorts on 


Ready for the 1 mile hike around Bear Lake and then another 1.5 mile to Alberta Falls and 
then Glacier Gorge

Taking a rest along the way


At Bear Lake


Rocked to sleep...


Alberta Falls


Abbie discovers M&Ms


Alberta Falls


Staying hydrated, you know, because she was working so hard on the hike


The total for the hike was 2.5 miles


Finishing up the hike


Evan again amazed us all. He did the entire 2.5 mile hike without complaining or being carried once. He did an amazing job and we were all so proud of him...just 2 months into being 4 - he amazes me daily.


At the spot where Jeff and I got engaged Aug 1, 2001. We love that we get to return to this spot every few years. It's a former study of a minister that burned down in '35. The remains have stayed as has his home across the road. It has an amazing view of the Rockies.


What Evan sees in the backseat...his picture


Last dinner at Poppy's - of course. Don't worry, we'd already been to Penelope's and the Brewery earlier in the week. 



Of course one last round of mini golf
