Daddy comes up!

On Sunday, Brent came up to join us, and we all went horseback riding.  Adults accompany kids until they're six, I think, so this was the first and last time that Brent got to ride on a horse with his son.  Gavin was hard to read with this one--maybe just undecided as he took it all in--but Gage seemed to love it from the get-go.  It was just a nice, easy meander on the horses, which was just fine with me after my near-death experience on a horse in Mante, Mexico years ago.  

I'm glad that Brent got to join us for the afternoon and was up for the horse ride.  We all really enjoyed seeing him and making memories together.

Here is a picture of Tara and the boys after the ride.  They were fairly dirty and dusty but quite happy.

After the horse ride, I (Brent), took them up to the lake above Estes for a bit as Tara took a nice massage hour.  We walked around this whole lake, though it was challenging to keep them "on trail".  Too many exciting things all over the place to see.  They had fun, though it got a bit colder toward the end of our hike/walk.
