Scottish Festival/ Our Family Cabin

Last weekend we decided to dive in to some culture! We went to the Highland Games/Scottish Festival at Payson Memorial Park. There were booths, food, singing, dancing, games and best of all the drumming and bag pipes! I think we all enjoyed it!Thomas has Irish/Scottish heritage so next year we will come prepared with his clan name so we can find out more about his family.

On to the next event of the weekend. We enjoy spending time at our family cabin up in Fairview Lakes. Its always nice to get away from reality and get back to the basics.

There weren't as many of us an usual however we all had fun! Tori and Jordan had their cousin Amelia to play with and Bosco enjoyed the many walks they took him on. Thomas rode his bike up towards Scofield. The rest of us enjoyed sitting in the sun or riding the four wheelers.

Sunday morning we decided to go on a ride up to the "top". Once in a while Amelia and Tori would see wildflowers they wanted to pick. By the end of the ride they had about 2 dozen flowers to bring back to the cabin.


It was a short trip but fun. Hopefully this summer we will have more opportunities to enjoy the beauty and solitude! A big thank you to my grandparents who built the cabin! Love you guys!
