Tiny Town

     Last week was Ashlyn's last full week of summer break.  We wanted to make the very most of it and tried to pack as much fun into that week as we could.  I think we did a good job.
     We started the week with a trip up to Denver.  My mom, sister, Ella, Jameson, Gracie, Ashlyn, Dawson and I all went along.  We amazingly all fit into our mini-van.
    We started our trip with a stop at a place called Tiny Town.  My mom had been wanting to take the kids there for some time, and we finally made it.  Tiny Town is nestled in the mountains on the eastern part of Denver.  It contains lots of tiny houses that are modeled after real places in Denver.  There also is a really neat playground and a train.  The kids really liked Tiny Town.  We had a great time looking at all the different houses.  Some of the houses the kids could even climb through.  They had a great time playing on the playground.  We ended our visit with a ride on the train.  We love the train park in Phoenix and this one was pretty similar.  The kids had so much fun.
       After Tiny Town, we were very close to the town of Evergreen.  We decided to stop there for lunch.  We went to Beau Jos for pizza.  We had one in the Springs many years ago and I had forgotten how good it was.  We all stuffed ourselves silly with pizza.
         After lunch, we made our way to our hotel.  We got settled and did some swimming.  Those kids just love to swim and they swam their little hearts out.  I will updated soon with the rest of our trip.

They are all decorated inside and are kindof like giant dollhouses
