We love horses!


Now that the weather has started to warm up we have really enjoyed being outside. We have really wanted to start riding our horses and the kids have been wanting to go as well. Adam is such a good sport. He saddled, Shilo, and walked the kids all around the yard, a million times.

The kids loved it. Ike and Cal had to wear their boots and they were all really brave. My kids have always loved animals and have never been afraid. Sometime they get a little to brave around the animals.


The boys had so fun. Cal loved it and didn't want to get off. He wanted to do it all by himself, he kept pushing my hands off of him and wanted Adam to be by his side. Ike, on the other hand, had to be bribed by grandma O to come outside and ride. She made the deal that if he came outside to ride the horses he could stay at her house for a long time. He has loved staying at grandma's to play with all the cars. He has a little routine there and hoards all the little cars and trailers. He will play for hours. The funny thing is when it was time to go, Ike had the deal as that he got to stay at grandma's for All the time. Let's just say there was a fit leaving grandma's that night!


Ike, our little cowboy! Don't you love his outfit, boots, basketball shorts, and cowboy hat. Gotta love it!


Cal was in heaven. He loved it. He loved wearing his boots, so red they are almost pink. Yes, they were Jane's at one time.


Cal and grandma O with Bella! Ike claims Bella is his horse.


Jane on Shilo. Jane was so excited when grandpa O told her he had the perfect horse for her ride. She was a little nervous in the beginning and said that he was pretty big, but by the end she was loving it.
