Trick Rider

Halfpint has decided to try some trick riding from her pony saddle.  She is "only in the practice at home stage", but she loves to try new things.  She can stand in her redneck, rope, trick rider saddle for 20 steps.  She flips off the saddle, spin in the saddle, and she made up her own dance moves in the saddle.  Maybe she will even get some professional training one of these days... just for safety!

Sunday afternoon...

Sunday afternoon, this was my view.  Shelling peas, from our garden, while the girls played in the pond.  I shelled for a few hours, they swam, jumped off the bridge, and played with cousins... perfect Sunday afternoon! 

The peas and potatoes we eat for supper were perfect also!  Well worth my time of planting, picking, and shelling.

Ponies

We recently had an FBFR meeting and the kiddos saddles up their ponies and hit the trail.  I would have liked to be a fly on one of the rumps to hear the conversations on their ride.  Silliness, giggles, and independence buzzed in the air... what fun!  As always, we enjoyed the company at the meeting and truly love being part of this awesome group.
