Nature Called...

And we followed! And I'm so glad we did. A good friend has a cabin up past Park City, way in through Weber Canyon. Not only was it beautiful, but She hosted so perfectly. The kids were worn out from dirt, horse riding, horse brushing, horse feeding, dirt, swing rides, picking flowers, playing games and more DIRT. It was a perfect day, one that will hopefully happen again! :)

Claire and I on one of the swings
Where the three horses roam...absolutely beautiful! (really the picture doesn't do the beauty justice.)
Porter feeding Larry some oats
So I was pretty scared in the beginning of the horses power and size, although I can hide it for any camera!
Sophia and Lainey Riding Starfire
Claire thinking she's a cowgirl
Porter and I riding Mandy
Claire riding Mandy. Doesn't it look like she's on that horse all by herself? (Do not report me to Social Services, I'm hiding on the other side!) :)
Honestly Porter could not get enough of these horses!
THE coolest swing I have ever been on. Porter was holding on for dear life!

Thanks Jackson's for such a wonderful day!

I just scrolled quickly through this post, and did a double take at Claire riding that horse. It totally looks like she's riding all by herself! Cute pictures, looks like a fun day. I'm with you though - just a little bit intimidated by horses!

You need to frame the pic of Claire on the horse with the hat, it's priceless!! That's is a beautiful place.

Bethany said...

You named a ton of my memories as well. Mostly, I just remember being so excited to have you in town, or to play with you at Grandma Moody's during Thanksgiving. Going swimming in the ditch across from her house, etc.

Love and miss you!

Katie said...

How fun. It looks like the kids loved it. The picture of Claire "alone" on the house is darling. She looks all grown up!

Matt and Jennae Porter said...

You're so welcome for the stickers! Looked like something a 3-year-old boy would enjoy, not that I have any experience in that area!

Sally Jensen Interiors said...

That looks like so much fun! Your b-day cake for Claire was absolutely adorable and how fun that you got to go to Lindsey's wedding...

leslie said...

Hi Meghan! It's been forever since I've seen you! What a cute little family you have! I just finally started blogging so it's fun to see how everyone's doing. So fun to see your parents and sisters too. Crazy to think it wasn't too long ago we were YW in scripps and now we have our own little families. Anyway, take care!
