Road Trippin'

We just got back from THE most fun trip ever.

Last week Jeremy asked how we'd feel about heading over east to turkey hunt.
I'm going to be honest, I was a little skeptical.

*5 hour drive.
*1 little tiny who can't stand to be in the car 15 minutes.
*1 mama who stresses out at the thought of long car rides.
*Tiny cabin in the middle of nowhere.
You get the idea.

But.  We don't get out all six of us all that often.
So we packed.
And headed out.
 

And seriously had the most amazing time ever.

Taylor was super wonderful in the car.
I didn't even mess around.
 I started right out sitting next to her so that I could tend to her every need.
And other than a throw up episode about an hour in to the trip, it was smooth sailing.
 

We got to the cabin Sunday afternoon, and settled right in.
We got to explore on 8,000 acres of land.
And every single acre was gorgeous.
This poor little shack was right down the road from the cabin.
 

Once we unpacked, we headed out for a drive.
We saw some cows . . .
Miss Taylor thought they looked mean,
so all we heard for the next half hour was, "Mean Tow".
 

And then . . .
We saw some wild horses!
They were just beautiful.
 

The next morning Sierra and Jeremy headed out early to track down turkeys.
It was chilly! A whopping 12 degrees on our last morning.
 

And the rest of us relaxed, snacked, and headed out to explore on our own.
 

We found a little cemetery right down from the cabin.
 

And fell in love with the little tiny school house next door.
 

Later we went up on the hillside and found fossils.
Fossils, people.
It was the most amazing day ever.
 

This adorable school house was right next to the cabin.
I cannot even imagine owning this gorgeous land.
All the history here.
 

The girls loved the merry-go-round.
 

I think I could live there.
I really do.
No people for miles around.
The nearest grocery store, over an hour's drive.
No cell service ;)

 

But oh my it was beautiful.
And peaceful.
And perfect.
