Mother and Daughter Getaway

Rebekah and I had the opportunity this past week to go on an overnight adventure.  We began the day with a little horseback riding.

This is Rebekah warming up for the ride.

This was a tricky picture to take since my horse was more interested in the water bucket than posing for a picture.

Do you see the natural rider in her?  She loves horses and one day I know she'll have one.

After horseback riding, we rested and read Nancy Drew.  The "Bungalow Mystery" was still as good as I remembered it from when I was a girl. (Thank-you Sandy, for giving us the book.)

After several chapters and recovering from the hour horseback ride, we treated ourselves to Golden Corral.    It is buffet style and we enjoyed the variety.   Of course dessert was always the best.  Rebekah discovered that putting gummy bears on her ice cream made them very difficult to chew.

We finished Nancy Drew that night and headed home the next morning, after laying around in bed for awhile, of course.  

What a great time I had with my oldest daughter.  She's awesome!
