Southfork

This past week, we extended our weekend by a couple of days and took a mini family vacay down to Southfork Colorado. Our friends from Oklahoma, the Rice family, have 3 beautiful cabins that sit right on the Rio Grande river and they invited us to join them for their Colorado vacation. It was so beautiful down there and the perfect spot to fish, hike and just relax with family.

We loved getting to spend some time with Uncle Ry and Auntie Kelly before their big move to Alaska that's coming early next month, we're going to miss them so much!
Riley absolultely loved having some her most favorite people there with her 24 hours a day and she woke up each morning asking for "Bop", her name for Popdaddy.

Riley has become an expert at walking in the past month and got lots of practice on some rough but beautiful terrain this weekend. It's getting tough to keep up with her!



Riley loved every second being up in the mountains. She became a big fan of fishing and made her sign for "fish" when we got out our poles and of course when she saw an actual fish. Which we did even manage to catch a few and that really made her day.




If you look really hard you can see a fish in my hand, the only one I managed to catch...we threw him back.
