View of the ranch from the stable

Kelvin saddling up!

The skies were so blue today!

We rode 1.5 hours and then tied up our horses while we ate breakfast

We are having a fabulous time!

Breakfast under the open skies was especially delicious!

Grayson and Darby in the saddle

Meris took us out on the trail Tuesday afternoon

Riding through the hills...

Meris let us trot and lope a little on this ride

Alan and Mary on the dusty trail

We saw Pikes Peak in the distance

Mark and I take it easy on the trail

And back at the ranch

The kids took a quick dip in the pool

The view of our cabin from the pool

Darby did some apple bobbing for some 4th of July fun!

And the three legged race began...

Darby paired up with Anna for the water balloon contenst!

Darby and Grayson got it going on.....

Grayson has great control over Hudson during the riding games

Can he retrieve the stick and win the game???

The kids had the best time practicing a play in the petting zoo

The view of the ranch from the dining hall

The night ended with some great singing from Will Dudley
