Kidder Creek part I


So as summer has quite deliciously arrived, my life is filled with everything I love....time for fun with my kids. My parents are part of a group of RVrs who go up to a wonderful place called Kidder Creek. While they were up there, they heard about a fun weekend for mothers and daughters to ride horses and spend time together. My mother was amazing in gifting this weekend to my daughter and I. Ashley could hardly wait! A whole weekend spent together. Here we are heading out of town, just the two of us!

Ashley took this picture of Mt. Shasta on our way up to Kidder Creek. Kidder Creek is located about a 3o min. drive west of Yreka. She held the camara out of the car to take pictures as I am driving I-5 at 70 miles an hour. After my heart slowed downed I suggested that she maybe take the pictures from inside the car. I did have to delete about 40 pics as most of them were repeats.



Here we are in front of our cabin on friday night. There was about 14 people total and we shared our cabin with another mother/ daughter duo from Rogue River. The girl was Ashley's age and they hit it off. Funny thing, I was hoping to just get away and spend time with people who didn't know me and as soon as we pulled in, right next to us pulled in another mother daughter set from my church who I knew pretty well. It was good to get to know each other in a different setting.


Right after our meet and greet and horse intro, we were up and away riding horses. This is Ashley's horse, Black Beauty. She loved her horse! They have great wranglers who help with whatever you need. Ashley was pretty sure she did not need anything. The evening ended with a wonderful campfire, songs and some simple devotions. The weekend was lead by this cute, never said a cuss word, christian mother daughter duo. They were too cute and spent the weekend bashfully singing each others praises.
