Riven Rocks

katy called me tuesday night and told me that she and some other ladies from church were going to a place called riven rocks and invited me to go too. of course i wanted too, i had a rotten tuesday and wanted something fun to erase the memory. this place isn't that far, about a half hour drive for me and katy.... but sooo worth the drive. it was just cool enough with the water and shade that it was a perfect day. it's pretty secluded, but we had enough kids to make up for the lack of people. there was another group there and they had some kids that became instant friends with ours, especially when the boys gave the kids fish to hold in a cup. good weather, good company and good food. what more could you ask for!













don't worry, sofia never fell off the rock. but there were also at least four sets of eyes on her... and the other kids too.














ta-da!!! such a skinny-minnie, but i love her anyways (he he he).













we packed a picnic and pretty much started eating as soon as we got there. the kids were back and forth because the lure of the water was great, but so was the growl in their tummy.













just beautiful! i was very happy to have been invited just to see this. it was small, but very much picture worthy.













the big boys were doing some 'fishing' with nets while at the rocks. the little kids just loved watching and helping.













each kid got a cup and had waited for one of the older boys to give them the "spoils". don't worry, no fish was harmed or brought home!













i love these ladies. we had so much fun watching the kids. if the water was a bit warmer we would have gone in deeper than our knees.














she had a rice krispie treat in her hand, i think it's the only food to not fall in the water.
