Last week we went to Silverton, Colorado. It was one of Dw's first outings - we LOVE Silverton and love the drive and love the views. On the way up there I pulled over the car. Dw said, "What are you doing?" I said, "I have to get a shot of this drive to show all my bloggy friends, especially for the ones who don't live in the mountains!" Is it gorgeous, or what?
We always stop at Molas Pass to enjoy the scenery. 
Once at Silverton we were trying to figure out where to eat. By the time we got to Silverton Elijah was not a very happy camper..... (snacks on the drive, doesn't matter, when it's time to eat he's starving)
Thought with how happy Elijah was that it would be appropriate to eat here...
Isaiah's legs were bothering him so much since surgery that he always wanted them elevated to help alleviate the pain....but he smiles regardless...
Oh yeah, he's happy.....
And playing in ketchup....the only way it gets better than that ...
Just this way.....

What cute pictures. Silverton is one of our all time favorite places in Colorado to go to. We hate that it is so far away from us.
poor baby! we have a 3 year old who eats day and night, road trips are interesting between the meals, snacking and potty breaks!
Lickin' catsup at Grumpy's - could it get any better?????
So good to see DW up! Still praying!
Loads of Love

HI Linny! What a sweet family you have! We live in Denver and I felt the same way about Silverton, Colorado! We took our kids on a Colorado tour when we moved here from Seattle 18 (gasp!) years ago. I'm glad I found your blog!
Looks like a wonderful time. What spectacular views. Glad you were able to get out and relax. Hugs and love.
These pictures were great! Brought back some memories from our honeymoon there....it was January and snowing and I learned to REALLY trust my husband as he was driving those curvy, on the side of the mountain roads! :)
GORGEOUS! Both your family and the views are GORGEOUS!
Thank you for sharing with those of us where corn stretches as far as the eye can see!
Spectacular views! Lord willing, I hope to either live in the mountains (or in close proximity to them) one day. They're so majestic...such a beauty in God's creation.
You've done an awesome job at capturing memorable moments with your family that will certainly be cherished as your children grow throughout the years. Life and family are such wonderful blessings.
Love to you all!

linny, i love your top in this picture! i actually know someone who lives in silverton and think its amazing how a 20 year old girl who lives in canada and you have something in common! it just amazes me! love reading your blog... you are definitely an inspiration to the world with your loving heart for children of all races regarding your own!
My first time posting a comment, but wanted to say I enjoy your blog and lovely family. I'll be participating in the fast from the lovely mountains of Virginia. I know I'd want that for me if I were sick. I pray God works mightily through all the people who love Him.

Oh my goodness, that is soooo beautiful!! I have had the HUGEST itch to get out of California (to go anywhere!) and those pictures did not help!! ;)
I love the photo of "all" of you! Such a beautiful, colorful family! :) And I just want to steal Emma & Graham- they look like the coolest kids ever and I miss having teenagers in this house (sometimes lol)!
Great mountain shots! You know, the mountains in Canada are even MORE beautiful (and I' m not biassed at all ;) ) You should come see them! Great to see DW out, hope he's doing better

The scenery is beautiful, but God's real beauty is wrapped in the smiles of your family.
You continue to inspire and challenge me as I learn to walk in His calling on my life, as wife and mommy.
Hugs from Costa Rica,

Love the mountains....especially when you live in LA - flat and lots of bayous....
What absolutely gorgeous pics. Goodness, we live right here in Co, and I have seen so little of the state. So bad.
I absolutely adore Isaiah--Linny, I don't think I have ever seen that boy without a smile on his little face. He is amazing.
BIG DAY tomorrow, friend. PRAYING!!!
Wowie, Zowie! Looks like a postcard! And such a fun day. Praise the Lord for fun days!!!
Your pictures are beautiful and brought back many memories of camping at Molas Lake. We have been thinking about heading that way for my 30th birthday, but not sure if the 8 hour drive each way is worth going just for a weekend! I am tempted now more than ever!
