Zack had a great time at the mall. He loved all of the rides he got to go on.

Hiking at Turtle Rock. Jeff carrying Zack while Amy carried Drew.












Ant, Matt, and Jon climbed over Turtle Rock. The rest of us hiked around it on the trail.

Running- Medicine Bow National Forest near Laramie, Wyoming

All the boys went out running. Matt, Jon, Chris, Jeff, and Ant. Dad went, too. Matt whooped 'em all, too, despite his lungs being used to altitudes of 100 feet and not 9000+.












Playing while the boys were out running.



























Drew and Zack chilling together.

Dirt Biking- Medicine Bow National Forest near Laramie, Wyoming

Jon bought a dirt bike (125cc). So the boys had to give it a ride. A couple of the boys crashed or almost crashed into the lake (like Chris). Jon, Grandpa Zmolek, Matt, Jeff, and Chris. The helmet, which Jon uses for his 60 mph street luging, wasn't brought out until after we were all done riding.










Zack playing with the helmet. Of course they brought out the helmet after they were done riding.







































Matt getting ready to ride. Zack did not get to ride. No one had much experience riding it. So Matt and I did not feel like he should go.

Zack loved the sweats we bought him in Idaho. We bought warm clothes in Idaho so we would not have to pack them. It was weird as to how cold it got outside of Texas. It was like early spring or late fall for us.











Chilling around the fire waiting for breakfast. Uncle Jeff, Zack, Amy, Drew, and Grandma Zmolek.











Amy and Drew cuddled up together. It was the best way to keep Drew warm when it dropped down into the 40's and 50's at night.











Zack sleeping.













Story time around the camp fire. Jeff, Amy, Drew, and Anthony.
