An afternoon at the River

We went to a local river a couple weeks ago to let the kids have some fun and to spend some time with our friends. It was so pretty and Carson was loving exploring the rocks, the rope swing, the water and the surrounding trees. Livi had fun making soup on the beach with her friend Tori, and she even ventured out onto the rocks a couple times. It was a nice afternoon, and then we went to our friends' house afterward for some hot dogs, watermelon and fresh tomatoes from her garden. We had good conversations and I left wanting to spend more time with them. It was kind of a "summer's ending, bring on the fall" type of day. Very pretty.
