Mother & Daughter Retreat

This trip was a real treat for Brenda and Terri because...their moms were there! The games and the riding were an absolute blast and to top it off, the weather was great. We all know that life can get busy and we sometimes don't get to spend the time we'd like to with our folks. So having five days alone with your mom with no distractions (except for those that Terri and Brenda provide LOL!) was a welcome break from life's day to day routine.




Brenda and her mom pose for a picture on the ride out, in front of Forty Mile Cabin.







Games, games and more games! The girls pair up for a scavenger hunt with daughters tethered to mothers - just like kids in the mall!













Of course there are the occasional 'comic relief' moments that I'm happy to provide...horseshoe applied with force to the back of Scott's leg = OW! "Nurse" Terri applies some ointment (TO MY LEG that is!).






With coffee in hand and comb in hair, the always camera shy (NOT!) Joanne poses for a shot.




And did I mention the great riding? Here's a few shots of the treks the girls took that week.









HAPPY BIRTHDAY TERRI! Terri's birthday happened to coincide with this trip so of course we had to celebrate. Chef Rachel whipped up a cake and the party began!
