When we made our summer bucket list, going to Tibble Fork Reservoir was right at the top. Somehow it took us until the end of the summer to make it there, but man, it was totally worth the trip. It is really just so beautiful there and we spent the best afternoon together. The water is COLD, so we don't do a lot of swimming, but it was a perfect day for our paddle boards and the kids kayaks. Once you get out to the middle of the reservoir, you can't really hear anyone else and it just all feels so peaceful. Standing on the board, soaking in the sunshine is really one of my happiest places.
The water had receded quite a bit so there was a little island not too far away from shore. We all waded out and the kids spent a lot of time playing and making up games. They invited me out for a "spa day" and made sure that I was pampered with a mud treatment. It must have looked relaxing because they both ended up with their own mud pack. Luke and Ruby constantly amaze me and make me laugh with all of the things they come up with. I just feel so grateful for all of the fun we have, and all the time we get to spend together.
