AT the YMCA

We went and stayed at the YMCA in Estes Park. Doesn't that sentence just make you wanna sing the song? Our friends told us about the YMCA of the Rockies and I have to say WE LOVED IT! It's a child's paradise and a great getaway! It's a family centered facility which is so refreshing when you have three kids! We went with Doug and Sue and Chalyse, and Chalyse flew out a couple of cousins to come with so Parker and Cooper came too! I have tons of fun pictures from our stay. I must say I think this is going to become a vacation tradition! They have these great private cabins that you can stay in, ours had a fabulous wrap around porch where we ate all our meals while enjoying the scenery. During our stay we played mini golf, went swimming, spent lots of time at the craft center making fun projects, the kids loved the little classes that they offered like Animal Detective, Parachute Games and Nature Graphics, we went fishing and even took a hayride out into the mountains where we had a campfire dinner and hot chocolate. We could have stayed so much longer! We can't wait to go back!

they had these logs cut out like chairs I thought they were pretty cool (it's the little things for me)
