Polo anyone?

Did you say polo? Why yes, I did. Saturday evening we went down to Portsmouth, Rhode Island to a polo match. Fun, fun, fun! I must say that the price of admission was worth the people watching alone. From the wine glasses to fancy 19th century style dresses it was fantastic. We even got to go stomp on the divets in between chukkas (periods of play, for those of you not familiar with the sport).After the match the players ride around and give everyone a high-five. And yes, that is a man in a kilt next to Riley. The U.S.A. played Scotland so there were many a kilt to be seen. Richard was just sad that his was at the cleaners.


Grayson was the only one of our kids with the guts to go grab a game ball that bounced out of bounds. It's actually a lot lighter than it looks. Savannah got it signed by one of the players.
Now, off to my sailing lesson. (Not really. I'm trying to pretend that I'm all upper class-like now.)

What great experiences you've had and seen. Your all 'upper class' to us - and maybe some of that will rub off on us here in Utah!!
You all look great

I think the boys in the Richard Davis Family should have matching kilts. That would be awesome, baby!! Hope the sailing or yachting or whatever it is you upperclassman do is going well. The little lowlifes, such as myself, have to get laundry and homework done. Cheerio, Mate!!
