Four Wheelin' Trip

AAAHHHH Mesquite!! I love it there! That is where we went a few weeks ago. I have some family that lives there so it makes it even better! Not only do we get a little vacation but we get to visit with some family. My Mom and I just love to sit and chat with everyone but this trip we had plans to go four wheeling. My cousin Josh took was like our little tour guide. Can you believe that Mesquite has mountains! I could never see past the casinos I guess. Well and I guess you can call them mountains. It was just a little different from the ones we have here with thick pine trees and quackies. Instead they have some trees here and there and cactus' and it was real rocky. At least the place we went was. It was pretty though and we had lots of fun!

Now I need to explain some of the photos! The first day we were there just all of the guys went riding, well except for my Aunt Marilyn. I wasn't there but my Hubby got some great photos. My funny Aunt Marilyn is game for anything! My Uncle Frank is lucky to have her! My Dad and Hubby wished my Mom and I were more like her!! As you can see from the slide show they went to the river or shall I say through the river! That's my crazy brother with my Aunt Marilyn's legs wrapped around him holding on for dear life! Then we have my Uncle Curtis on his new four wheeler going through the river and that is kind of scary as he is a new ATV rider but he wasn't scared at all. The river is not to far from my cousins house so we met the guys there and had a barbecue. The river was so cool because the spot to where we went was surrounded my smooth soft sand. I wished we had spent more time there and played but it was later in the evening and it was getting chilly. My Grandma and Doug also came and brought his Rhino. What a troop my Grandma is being blind and all cruising in the Rhino on this big rocky bumpy mountain. I thought after this ride she would never want to go again but she said she enjoyed herself. Can you imagine being blind and do this. Not me because if she had only seen the little/big cliffs we were riding on she would have never went!

We stopped at this gate after we went through and the guys had a beverage(beer as usual) and had to tie it on the fence. You should have seen all of the beer/pop cans on this fence. I don't know if it was on purpose to keep the cows away or something or if it was some sort of tradition for someone to do this when they went there. At any rate, they just had to leave one for our visit!

Hayden and Landen did very well on the four wheelers too. At first though they weren't too sure about them but they got use to it. So use to it in fact that they fell asleep on our long ride on this big loop we took through the mountains.

It was just an all around good weekend!!

Oh and just one more thing! My Brother had these hilarious sun glasses that looked like he should have been on Reno 911. Have you ever seen that show?! He was cracking me up with those things!
