A Saturday Hike

We awoke to another beautiful "Spring" day in the supposed coldest Winter month of the year in Colorado. So what does this mean!? Time for a hike! We went up Sanitas...a great trail in the foothills of the Rockies. As soon as we hit the trail, Rylie was making friends with fellow hikers with her smile, pointing and squealing at every dog we met, all the while taking in the sites and sounds of the mountains as we made our way to the top! (Side note...Rylie is getting bigger!! With every pound Ryl's gains...it is a pound loss for us, as we carry her on up! Dad took her up...Mom took her down!) We stopped for a little picnic on the way up, and after we reached the peak and took a few pictures, Rylie was so tired from the ride up, that she fell asleep as we miandered downward! What a great Saturday!
