Brudam's First Family Trip




It's been remarkably hot this summer in Dallas and we've been relegated to the confines of our house for the better part of July. We decided to head West to Colorado for a few days in an effort to beat the heat.

It was a lovely trip out there and the boys traveled with ease on the plane. We couldn't have asked for better weather, though given the choice, we probably would have left out the bookend Emergency Room visits from our trip. Bruce's mom had an unexpected fight with an elevator and she lost, resulting in a broken leg. She;s recovering rather nicely, all things considered, and ever the bright spirit she is, hasn't complained once.

Our other trip to the ER was for Bruce, who decided to listen to his Survival Instinct and bail on the first hill of the mountain bike trail we were just beginning. I mean, we are not even 60 seconds into "Rose Petal" (I'm serious...the trail was called for Rose Petal and was the beginner trail that merged in with the slightly harder trail, "Butterfly Kisses", about a mile away).

ER trips aside, the boys really enjoyed themselves, as did we all. Here are a few pics:
