Today is Quinn's birthday! It is so crazy that he is already 3! I remember the day he was born like yesterday. I hope I never ever forget a single detail of that day, I hold it dear to my heart. We had him at home with a midwife, and it was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. We also waited to find out baby's sex, so we were so surprised to find out "he" was a boy!
My brother is in town for the weekend so today we headed up to the mountains for some tubing. We had a blast!! It was our first time going and we can't wait to go again. We had the whole hill side to ourselves, not a single person was there. It was bitterly cold, but that didn't stop the fun!
Here are a few flashback pictures of our cute little babe and some pictures from today.
Love you so so so much Quinny-choo!

Always such a goof! I am pretty sure God blessed me with Quinn so I can laugh {a lot} daily! And.... probably so I can learn some patience too. ;)
The drive up to the mountains is my fave! It is gorgeous!! We rented a Suburban for the weekend and that made the drive even nicer, it has two dvd players and every other fancy option available!! If I was rich I would run out and buy one!! They are amazing.
Our driver. :)
We enjoyed several movies on the way up and back home.
We finalllllly made our way up and it was time to bundle!! So so cold.
Hahaha!! Quinn couldn't really see or move.
Ha! Almost funnier than Quinn. My brother was cold and not happy about the helmet and "outfit".
Before tubing the kids rode little snowmobiles. They were so cute!
Here is Ava getting her instructions.
Caleb all ready to go.
Ok. This picture is hilarious!! After Ava got her instructions on how to work her scoot and how to drive the course, she got a little over excited and took off towards the tubing hill!! She just did a u-turn around us and sped away. She is crazy-dare-devil lady! Mike {my brother.. that;s him in the red} had to chase her down and stop her! She was racing up to the top of that crazy hill.
Alrighty, here are some snapshots of the fun!
This magic carpet is awesome! Takes you right up to the top. No need to hike back up.
Here comes Caleb!
Next was Ava
She couldn't run fast enough to make her way back up!
Quinn and Dad
This is after his first run, he is telling me how it was...
"And I was like, Ahhhhhhhhhh!"
Uncle Mike
Proof that I went down! I did scream the entire time! And I almost peed my pants.
View from the top. Caleb is waiting for us so we could all go down together.
All 6 of us ready to race!
They had a fire going and you could buy ingredients to make smores! How cool is that?!?!
Quinn and I came in the cabin to warm up and have some hot chocolate while everyone else went down a few more times.
Oh... and of course play super-heros.
On our way back down the mountain we stopped at the famous Beau Jo's for some pizza! Such a fun day!
I HIGHLY recommend Colorado Adventure Park if you are ever in CO {Winter Park}. It was a blast and the staff was amazing! We really can't wait to take another trip up there!
