Grand Lake

A mini vacation for our family that was needed for a while.  With Brian out of town last minute we needed to go away as soon as we could.  We stayed in our parents time share (thank you) we got up there late Friday through the rain and more rain.  We were expecting snow the next day so we went to the store to get all that we needed for the weekend.  As soon as we got out of Walmart snow was falling down (big flakes) we didn't have anything planned for today so we stayed in and watched movies and played pool, table tennis and the boys beat the high scores in the arcade.  Monday, we planned on Horse ridding at a ranch a few minutes from the condo.  Jayden wasn't too sure at first about riding and he was put on the biggest horse. but he was the oldest so the horse was very mellow and followed along.  Persaus was sooooo excited when we told her we all were going to ride.  She wanted to go go go.  Her horse did really well!  Persuas followed behind the lady that took us on our trail ride and Persau's horse kept butting the horse in front and the trainer had to keep telling Persaus to back off a little bit.  Persaus thought it was so funny though :/  Daddy's horse was not wanting to walk through the mud and water so his horse was stubborn.  His horse would stop way behind us so Daddy had to trot his horse back to our line.  Every time daddy had to make his horse trot mommies horse would look back and start trotting.  It was all fun and dad and mom laughed soooo hard until later that day and the next morning when our inside legs hurt so bad from the trotting.  We enjoyed pizza for lunch.  Persaus and mom played cards and sipped our drinks out on the patio.  Monday afternoon we drove around the Marina and found a spot to park and cast the fishing poles.  While we waited for fish to bite the kids found giant pieces of foam and built a fort with a flag and took bait from Brian's and painted the foam.  Family time was what we needed to get away from being home and the everyday mess.  We look forward to our next vacation............(soon, i hope)
