Horse Rides in the Yard

Every time we get back from a ride, Gavin, Colton, and whatever other kiddo that may be at our house has to come out a ride the horses! It is so fun to watch their excitement and confidence build each time they get on.

Gavin and cousin Natalie going for a ride together. . . sooo cute!

Uncle T (my brother Travis) and cousin Natalie going for a quick ride.
Cowgirl Natalie on Reagan . . . you can tell Natalie likes this much more than Reagan does.

Gavin leading Rowdy (Daddy's horse) around the yard. He was quite proud of himself for being able to do this.

Yee-haw! Gavin loves to pretend he's a bull rider.

Bluewood Hiking

Drew is always on the hunt for mountain property, so we occasionally take a quick trip to the mountains to check out the property and play around a little. We recently drove up past Dayton near the Bluewood ski resort. These pictures are from a little hike we took up a closed road to the ski resort.

Family photo!
Cheese!


Making our way back down with Papa Mark (Drew's dad).

Colton's 1st Birthday!

Colton had a pretty laid back, but fun 1st birthday party. He was actually really sick on his birthday, so we had the party a few days after. The kids played and played and Colton was all smiles!

Post-cake face!
