Summer Road Trip ~ Vegas, Grand Canyon, Telluride, Vail & Denver

We did a Braham summer family trip.  Our first stop was in Las Vegas for three nights, then we rented a car and drove to the Grand Canyon for one night, Telluride for one night,Vail for two nights and Denver for one night.  We had dinner with Mimi and Papa the first night at an Italian restaurant.  The next day we hung out at the Wynn pool.  It was s little disappointing because they would not let the kids jump into the pool, throw balls or splash.  The next night Craig and I went out to dinner and Mimi and Papa watched the kids at our hotel.  After our stay in Vegas we rented a car to go on our next adventure.  First we drove to the Grand Canyon and checked out the scenery.  It was breathtaking.  We didn't have much time in the Grand Canyon, but enough time to snap some amazing pictures.  Next we drove to Telluride and had fun taking the gondola to the city and checking out the local sights.  The drive between cities was always long and more than what we expected, but the wonderful adventures made up for it.  Next we went to Vail and spent two nights there taking it all in.  We did white water rafting in Vail as well as horse back riding.  It was Liam's first time riding a horse by himself, but he did great.  We all rode our own horses and had fun going up the mountain.  Next we drove to Denver and spent the day at the water park.  Finally we spent the night in Denver and flew home the next day.  We had such a fun time on our road trip.
