River Rafting

Oh we had a blast today!  We went on a half day river raft trip in the mountains of Buena Vista.  Our guide was sweet her name was Jessy.  It seems we have met a new Jessy everyday this week!  Must be a popular name here in Colorado. :)  I love the fact that they have a professional photographer taking the pictures.

Estes Park

Today we took a drive to the mountains.  It is was really beautiful.  We got to take a horse back ride at Elkhorn Lodge.  All of us had a blast!  Afterwards we got to have the Chuck Wagon Dinner.  The food was sooo good!  We had brisket, chicken, baked beans, corn bread, homemade apple sauce and peach or apple cobbler.  YUM!!!

The kids with our wrangler Jessy and Jay.  Jessy is a bull rider!  He broke his jaw a few days ago so he couldn't be in tonights rodeo.  He was so funny he kept harassing Garrett telling him he should try bull riding and how the belt buckle would make him a girl magnet.

The kids with Aunt Roni the best Aunt ever!

There were elk everywhere!

Lake Day

The kids spent the day hanging out at the Lake today.  Ronnette brought her kayak and the kids paddled around.  They had a great time trying to sink it and then recovering it.
