December 5th is sinterklaas day on holland. So we went to ouray and visited our dutch friends there who own a bed and breakfast called the China clipper inn. What a wonderful weekend it was . Sinterklaas came and dropped off presents, we saw a santa parade and lilja talked to santa and Mrs Claus and after an amazing breakfast the next day we went sledding the ouray way.. on a very looong road, and they went so fast. We truly had an amazing time and felt a little on vacation just for a day .
|
Our beautiful drive to ouray. We did not have any snow in durango, so did not expect the winter wonderland in ouray |
|
We had some lunch before we met our friends. Santa came and said hi. |
|
He did not fool lilja.. momma, was that Santa's helper .. because I could not see his mouth. |
|
Nice new powder in ouray.. ofcourse lilja had to make her annual snow angel |
|
Santa's parade was interesting .. maybe 10 people and 1/2 of them were Santa's and elf .. here is an elf pulling santa on a horse... wait of it.. |
|
Yep on skis!! |
|
Then lilja could talk to santa and Mrs vlaus. She wants a trampoline .. oh yes !! |
|
Hi santa on a fire truck !!! |
|
Waiting for sinterklaas.. so excited !! |
|
And yes, candy was thrown into the house and a bag with gifts was left outside .. great games fir all of the kids |
|
Next morning we all went sledding . Wow, the kids were troopers. Walking up and coming down so fast .. |
|
Charlotte and lilja were buddies.. |
|
Lilja wanted to sleep in the snow .. she really loves being in the wet, cold, snow . |
|
But the crash is coming .. let's feed her fast ! |
|
Going down the road with daddy was her favorite.. he goes 30 miles an hour, thus the helmets !! |
|
Great weekend, happy family !! |
