Vail Vacation Day 4: Farmers Market and a hike

On our last full day in Vail we took part in more local activities. To start the morning off, Emma and I walked over to the Farmer's Market. It was filled with so many goodies and it was hard to resist buying some of the yummies.

We met up with my parents and my brother who were also enjoying the local market. Gammie bought Emma a very yummy cookie to munch on.

We popped into a local store and Emma had to try out these cool shades. I wish I would have bought them for her.


Later in the day we decided to head back up on the Gondola and do some hiking. Emma decided right away that she did not want to walk. Andy, being the fabulous dad that he is just picked her up and carried her the whole time.





Later on, we met back up with my family for dinner. The kids were obsessed with running around in this booth. I loved watching them play together. These moments make me smile. =)

We were tired from all our activities so we decided to take a bus ride back to our village after dinner. Abby got a kick out of holding on to the bar.

The worn out kiddos.
Vail was an amazing vacation filled with great memories. I am so thankful that we were able to take this trip, especially with my family. I hope that we are able to go back again because I know there are even more activities all of us want to try out. I heart you Vail!!

You need to stop vacationing there or you're really gonna end up moving! ;) That place looks so beautiful!

WOW, I loved reading and looking at your pictures from your Colorado trip. I think that might have to be on our list for next summer!! The views were absolutely breath-taking! Glad you had a great time with your family.
