Red River day 2

 

More riding today.  
This time our little scamp came with us.
 He loves riding. 
 
 
 
 

Cody drove is back down the mountain. 


That afternoon I stayed behind with the pups
 while everyone else took the 
kayaks to Cabresto Lake. 
 
 


They ran into the horned sheep on
the way back into town. 


We grilled out the most yummy fajitas
then decided to go for a night ride.  
 

This kid decided to come along this time. 
 

Just a couple of ducks hanging out in a creek
in the middle of a trail late at night. 
 

We ended our night with some S'mores.

Red River Day 1

We made it!  Two weeks in our 
magical mountain town is finally here!


the boys got straight to soaking it all in
 

 

We met up with AJ and Chelsey and
planned on spending a weekend full
of riding.  And that's just what we did.
 
 
 
This trail is definitely my favorite this 
time.  I love riding through the creeks.  
This time it had lots!  There was even
a part where the trail became a steady 
mountain stream!  ðŸ’šðŸ’šðŸ’š
 

 

The next trail we tried was Goose Lake.

We took a break and roasted some
hot dogs before heading up.
 

still going strong


We heard there was still a lot of snow
towards the top and you had to turn around
about two miles from the lake. 
We still gave it a shot.
 

We were bound and determined to be the first
ones to reach the top this season.  
Good thing we had our winch!
We used it A LOT!  

 


We didn't make it to the top.
So close though.  Much farther than 
anyone else had been this season.  
 

Turning around was a challenge.

Summer!!!

Summer is right around the corner!
I'll miss my free time during the day
BUT I am so ready!  I for sure need a break!!!

It could go one of two ways...


morning breakfast before the
last day of school
 

and some trivia on the way to school
I will miss this!


nerd!
 

and the last day of school!
Hallelujah!  This has been THE HARDEST
school year we've had!!  Times 10!  
We will celebrate the fact that we simply 
all made it through it!  Next year things are going
to be different - I'm already preparing for it. 


Last day - First day

Look how much they've grown
and changed!!  I can't believe it!
 
 

Last day - First day


They need to stop growing!
 

 

last morning school ride

 

Many awards once again for this kiddo
this year - BUT winning that bacon right there
has been the goal since Christmas!!!  
Pig Out On Reading - The student with the
most A's on every test/quiz in the second semester
of reading/language arts wins the bacon.  
He didn't get not one B!  
He really wanted that bacon!!!  
So super proud of him!!!
 
 

Summer Time Freedom!
 

We celebrated with dinner and a movie!
