About 8 months ago we began planning our family vacation to beautiful Colorado this June! Time passed so quickly and before we knew it we were loaded up in the car and headed for the mountains! On the way we stopped in Childress to visit our good friends the Hendersons! John (sitting next to Greg) was our best man 14 years ago!
Next we met up with the Newhouse family in good ole Amarillo and decided....if you've gotta eat it might as well be at the Big Texan! That place was SO hick, it was hilarious to imagine what tourists must think of Texas when they eat their! 
THE HOUSE!!!
I just have to show off this gorgeous house! It was donated by a generous and awesome family from Saturn Road to an auction we had back in November benefitting little Lia Stone. Greg was the second highest bidder and the family honored his donation to the Stones in exchange for a week at their home! 
The Kitchen was awesome!! It was actually fun to cook in! On a side note, the diamond fell out of my wedding ring while we were there and actually found it (thanks Jim!) on the wood floors of the kitchen! thank goodness!

(And someday at ACU we hope!) Ashton Wilburn! Ashton is Jim and Susan's niece and she and Madison have become good friends! Ashton lives in Tulsa with her family so she and Madison don't get to spend a lot of time together but they keep in touch with the greatness of cell phones and computers!
The "Bunk Room"! There are beds in this room you can't even see from the picture! But how cool is that?? The room also had a sitting area w/ tv and sofas so the kids had their own "hang spot" upstairs in their bunk room!

Jim and Susan in the GIANT Copper bathtub!! That thing was awesome!! That is a steam shower next to the tub, which was also incredible!!!

Hot Tubbin!
Kids playing in the river! It was to chilly for them to get in but they threw a million rocks into the water!
Greg's favorite spot! Relaxing on the porch swing!
