Me.

I was pretty selfish yesterday (Mother's Day).
I took a "me" day.


I was invited to do something that I haven't done 
since my boys were born, let alone conceived.
Horseback riding.

It was the best day I have had in a long time.

I rode a real pretty black and white paint named Teddy.
He was good to me. A gentleman with nice trail manners. 
We rode for three hours.
Yeah, my butt hurts but I feel
so good on the inside!

I can openly say,
a good "me" day is also good 
for my family.

Horses are my best medicine.



I got a present when I got home too.
The Mr. made me a new farmhouse clothesline.
I'll be priming and painting it today and figuring out 
the best placement in the yard.
I'll share pictures soon.

xo, Amber

  2. If you need any help on hanging clothes, ask me! I got some great tips from my mother-in-law when I was in England! Those sheets straight from the sun, ah, that is just the best!
    Glad you had a happy Mother's Day with the horses!

    1. Hello Elisabeth! Teddy was just my trusty steed for the day. He was a great horse. My soreness is finally subsiding. :) Can't wait to do it again! Austria?! Wow!
