Georgetown, Colorado

The Texans had to head into the mountains one more time before leaving Colorado. So we decided Beau-Jo's pizza needed another visit & then it was off to the quaint mountain spot known as Georgetown. The pizza was of course awesome!! We hit a few shops in Idaho Springs before heading up to Georgetown. The girls scored a couple of lollipops before heading out- it would eventually lead to Audrey's downfall as you will see below.


THe girls with their suckers & a frozen waterfall behind them...



Andy's eyes were shut but here we are in Georgetown- in the historical shopping district. It was such a neat place but very quickly got cold as the sun set- BURRRR!!!



THe girls....


Here is Audrey before we even hit the highway out of town- CRASH!! With lollipop in hand!!


She had a death grip on the darn thing!!


We stopped at this Antique store on the way "down" into Denver. Everyone thought it looked junky & touristy on the outside but I insisted on continuing our adventure. It was SO NEAT on the inside. Beautiful, old Colorado antiques, a huge burning fireplace, a ski museum, & room after room of gorgeous mountain furnishings! Needless to say, everyone made it inside to check it out- we were there for a while! There was nothing we were interested in buying or even able to really afford- pretty pricey!! But we did get some ideas. Meagan wanted to take a picture with the statues outside so we did- I-75 is in the background...

It was a fun day, but sad that our trip was coming to an end.....
