Our family decided to take a mini vacation over President's Day weekend. We had recently been up at my step brother's house in Denver for his beautiful wife's bridal shower. The kids really wanted to stay the night in a hotel but didn't understand that by the time we checked in we would be sleeping and leaving (not swimming & having fun like they imagined). We had some really sad faces when we told them we were heading home. It took me a moment to realize why. Our kiddo #4 had really never stayed in a hotel. We take vacations, but our vacations are usually camping.

We began to plan a little get away and hubby suggested Mt. Princeton Hot Springs. He had gone many years ago, but our family never had been. We booked a private cabin and then just days later, kiddo #3 breaks her leg and is in a full leg cast. We decided to go ahead with the vacation and thought if nothing else, a change of scenery would do her good. We went up Sunday mid morning and stayed the night. We even found a little pizza pub in Buena Vista that was wonderful. I even got hubby to take me to the yarn store in Buena Vista and have some fabulous yarn for a future project.

Mt. Princeton hot springs are natural springs and they're odorless (which it a plus for sure). They have a nice creek that runs along side of the hot springs pools. The creek has little pools that have been made by rocks making little coves. We were even able to get kiddo three (with a trash bag on the leg) to sit in the creek and enjoy the hot springs while the other three kiddos played in the hot springs pool. It was really fun to swim in the winter and it even snowed Sunday night.
