Horses
September 22nd, 2009
Ada and Tyghe had the opportunity this morning to go to the stables on a little field trip. They learned a bit about the horses and how to care for them. Ada took a turn brushing one of the horses. They both got to feed a few of the horses treats, along with feeding alfalfa to some nearby goats.
We all even got a chance to ride a couple of the horses. Tyghe was up first and while excited, was too scared to ride on his own, so I got to go for a ride with him.
Then he got brave and finished the ride by himself, and even went back later for a second ride.
Ada was a little nervous on her turn, but did a great job. She even got to trot for a bit, and also went back for a second ride.
Thanks to the Grahams for sharing their horses and providing this opportunity for the preschool kids in our ward. Thanks also to Juli for arranging for us to do this each year. The kids love it!

Wow – what a treat! I just like to think of horses as really big dogs, and then they don’t seem so intimidating. The kids were so brave!
