Riley Family Lake House

T and I headed to the ranch to do some routine maintenance to the deer feeders and deer blinds in preparation for deer season and attend the wedding of a good friend of mine in Austin.

When we arrived at the ranch, we also found out that his aunt and uncles would be at their lakehouse on Horseshoe Bay for the weekend and they invited us over. We could NOT pass this opportunity up. This house is GORGEOUS, right on the lake, has an awesome pool and we got some great fellowship time with his family.

We headed out to the lakehouse as soon as we were done with our chores at the ranch and spent all afternoon and the evening on the lake. We capped off the evening with fajitas and ritas on the back porch. We had to head back to the ranch Saturday night so we could attend Katie's wedding which was on Sunday (more on her wedding in a later post).

Due to her wedding falling on a Sunday night, I had to take Monday off of work...this allowed us to spend ALL day Monday at the lakehouse, too! This time it was just us and the Brown Family (Trav's cousin Kellye and her hubs and twins). We had an absolute blast and are so thankful we were able to spend the day with such awesome peeps!

This is a pic of T and I with Travis' 2nd cousins Emily and Scott (twins)

The aftermath...all in the water


The house is equipped with a boat and 2 jet skis. Travis and I rode around for a while...until he threw us both off doing donuts going 45mph!

The lakehouse....just kidding. This is Michael Dell's house (as in the CEO of Dell Computers). This house is around the corner from the Riley lakehose

The fabulous weekend had to come to an end and we headed home on Tuesday morning. Thank you Riley clan for allowing us to come play at the lakehouse!
