Fun Times at the River

This week we went with our good friends Jeff and Mickey to the Colorado River. We stayed in an air conditioned trailer and spent two entire days floating, eating, wake boarding (well of course I did not wake board), laughing and being lazy. It was so great! My husband and I have really needed some downtime and this trip was truly a gift from God.


We put on life jackets and floated down the river while Jeff and Mickey followed us in the boat. Yes, that is me in the hat.

Nice googles!
The fisherman looking for an innocent fish to spear. Jeff and my husband (I hate not being able to write his name) used Mickey's (jeff's wife) purple goggles and found some fish swimming around. They returned to their young boyhood years and decided to make a spear and a bow and arrow in an attemp to catch a fish. Finally at the end of the day Jeff speared this little blue gill. He was just about to pull it off and take a bite of it but it jumped out of his hand. Yes, he really would have taken a bite of it!






Heading home after a nice day on the river. So where are pictures of Mickey and I??? Ya, we kind of forgot to take pics because we were having so much fun laughing at the guys. Oh well, we did take some great video though. And now back to work but at least it's a short week!!!

Great pics! Looks like fun. You need a new special name for your hubby, other than "my hubby." How about Mr. F? Or Sweetcheeks? ;)

That's my kind of vacation! No agenda, no itinerary... just nature. That's the life.

Looks like fun! My hubby went to the River a ton before we were married and I've always wanted to go experience it. Some year. I agree, you need to come up with a fun nickname for Mr. Man :)
