A piece of Colorado

Here is our piece of Colorado...this would be a great place to settle down someday.

One good thing about having some property is the opportunity it gives the kids to do some work.  Sam and Ben have proven to be great little workers.

My dad worked harder than all of us Riley's put together.  We really appreciate his help.

Ben has his sights set on Grandpa's truck.

                               Mara and I look like rugged Colorado women.                                  

Ben and Mara know the true meaning of "reuse."  These trash can lids turned into cymbals for their great performance in the forest!

Yes, I did have a birthday...it was more fun for the kids than for me.
