Family Day Adventures



So every year when Family Day pops up (which is often some random day in early July) we venture out to do something fun together. Mind you that we often do things together but having a day with a title just makes it more special.


This year we rode the Georgetown loop train. It is about an hour train ride that goes up to Silver Plume and back. When the weather is nice, the train cars are open and the scenery beautiful. It was very relaxing (so much so that Kailei took a nap). We all really enjoyed the ride.


After the train ride, we grabbed some ice cream in Historic Georgetown and walked around the shops. Kailei and Keara were on a mission to spend their money but were unable to find exactly what they wanted. Keara ended up wanting to go back to the visitor center and purchased a necklace which has a columbine flower on it. She has now decided she wants to collect necklaces from places she goes. Kailei didn't find anything here so we took off before traffic got too bad.


To top off the day, we went to the White Fence Farm for dinner which is a great place for kids. Lots to do and lovely grounds to walk on. Another great family day.

Love, love, love the picture of Keara and Kailei. That belongs on a Christmas card or something!
