Breckenridge

This past weekend Tyler and I escaped the Oklahoma heat for a little getaway in Breckenridge.  High temps in the 60's-70's have never felt so good!  I had been looking forward to this mini trip for months and I'm sad its already over.  We met Tyler's parents, brother and grandma for our weekend rendezvous.  After finding out the sex of our little bundles of joy earlier in the week, it was great to share the pictures and ultrasound video first hand with Tyler's family. 

We rode the gondolas to the top of Breckenridge ski mountain.  Beautiful views!  It started storming while we were at the top so they shut down the gondolas.  We were stuck at the top for about an hour!  Not a shabby place to be stuck!
Tyler enjoyed his favorite beer while stuck at the top!

Tyler went on a guided fly fishing trip.  It looks like he had some success!

Breckenridge was hosting the fifth leg of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge on Saturday afternoon.  I had never attended a bike race but it sounded intriguing.  There were over 60,000 people in town to attend the race.  Of course I didn't want to miss out!

Here come the leaders . . .
It was amazing how quickly they rode by
A little post race dip in the river! 
And of course while we were there we did a little shopping at the outlet mall.  The twins now have a pretty good start on their fashionable wardrobes!  Their clothes just barely fit in my suitcase.

Tyler couldn't resist this photo opp . . .
Unfortunately we are back in the OK heat!  I am now looking forward to the arrival of fall even more than before (I didn't know that was possible).  Thanks Millers for a great weekend!
