One Ride at a Time

Welp, Roswell was about as kitschy as we could have imagined… BUT WE FREAKIN LOVED IT!

I’d like to think we’re pretty down to earth (get it??), but we’re known to wear a foil hat every now and again. And THIS is the Mecca of foil hats!

We loved the UFO museum, along with all the great UFO-themed buildings and businesses around town.

And of course our trip couldn’t have been complete without a trip to the Flying Saucer McDonalds. The kids were especially stoked about that one. 🤣

Have you been to Roswell? Was it what you expected?

PS I’m like a month behind here, maybe more. I’ll catch up one of these days. 😅

And THIS is what it’s all about you guys.

If you don’t know, my girl here is obsessed with horses. OBSESSED. So it experiences like these that make this travel life worth it.

When we were staying at our friends horse farm in Reddick, FL, we found out that we happened to be minutes away from the World Equestrian Center and that it happened to be the Equestrian Grand Prix!

What is that, you ask? I honestly had no clue either until this event. 😂

It is when the cream of the crop, the Olympians, the champions all come together to compete in an intense jump course.

It was a fantastic event to watch! The athletic ability of the horses and riders is so freakin impressive!

But the best part?? Watching my daughter revel in the magic of it.

This is why I travel. This is why I stay sober while I do it. For the experiences and the ability to be absolutely present for each one. I can fully immerse myself in the moment of joy in the kids’ faces. Things like this were a distant dream years ago- and now they’re my reality.

Have you ever been to an advanced equestrian competition? What did you think??
