Colorado 2013


 One of our highlights- a 2 hour horse ride!
 The girls loved watching Ryan prep the fish outside our cabin (I am looking through the screen door)
 This was a cool fallen tree- with the branches sticking out in back.
 


 This was a 2 mile- one way hike to "Inspiration Point" it was foggy when we started in the morning- the girls were excited to "touch the clouds"
 A cool beaver eating tree!
 I could have just stood in this one spot for hours, looking at the beautiful scenery!
See the deer above? We were coming back down from Inspiration Point and saw this beauty.


One day it was rainy, but the girls still tried fishing at Love Lake with Ryan. (I stayed in the car, and played Go Fish with the girls as they would rotate in and out to get warm and dry!)

 
 This was a hard hike, and we turned around part way through the trail, because we thought we were going to get a big rain- we booked it back- it never did rain- you can see Faith holding our ponchos.  The girls were such troopers!
 We played cards and Farkle a lot at the kitchen table in the cabin.


 We saw parts of the devastation from the Colorado fires this summer.
 Parts of the trees were beginning to turn fall colors.
 The girls like to play with the camera!
 One morning it was cold as we were hiking, and Hannah wanted me to show how her nose was red from the cold!

We had a great time!  God is awesome and faithful!!!
