Our weekend River Trip

This past weekend we went off to the Colorado River for a family trip.
We stayed at the River Breeze RV resort in Ehrensberg AZ, it is just across the river from Blythe, CA.

We were lucky enough to have all 4 spots in a row.


Friday evening we set up camp and headed straight over to the pool.
It was 113° at 5pm, so the water was a must.

Emma was a great napper at the river.
As long as she had the AC on, she was out for hours.

Saturday morning we got ready for a day on the river.
Connie made her yummy ceviche.


JuJu would have played his ds all weekend if his parents would have let him.

Then we were off to the river for the day.
So sorry that I didn't take any pictures, but I didn't want to take a chance with the camera in the crazy heat.


After cleaning up, we had our celebration night dinner.
We were celebrating birthdays for Victoria, Nathan and Abuelita Rose.

I made Wendy's seafood feast recipe by request.
Here it is cooking on the coals, it was covered in burlap to keep the steam in.

And here it is all ready to eat.
I know it was not nearly as good as hers, but it was still pretty darn good.

David Andrew was such a trooper and was so good the entire trip.



After dinner we had a little "funny RoseMary story" sharing.
There were some hilarious ones that I had never heard before.
We were celebrating a very special birthday, so we wanted to make it extra special for Rose.

She proudly sucked on her "60 Sucks" lolipop.

Happy Birthday Time!

The kids had a blast playing video games outside.

Some of us took a little walk/ride down to the river.
Douggie was so talented holding his beverage while riding the scooter.

Cousins... Marie, Ebit and Cris
Man you can tell we were in the sun all day.



Then Sunday morning we had a great breakfast and packed up.

It was such a fun weekend!
I can't wait for our next river trip.

A very special THANK YOU to Andy for house/dog/cat sitting for us!

Looks like an awesome trip. I love that Emma's favorite part of the trip was trying on all the shoes.
