Horsing Around

On a most fantastically beautiful Wednesday, we accepted an invitation to our neighbor Megan's Grandma and Grandpa's house to visit her horse, Tress. Their horse farm is in Black Forrest (a little north of Colorado Springs), and right now they have 16 horses (at one time they had 45!). We were also joined by our other neighbors, Jaiden and Madi (and of course their mommy, Jamie, and Megan's mommy, Maggie).

This is no big deal!
The highlight of the trip (at least for Jack)
Jack did get on Tress for a few seconds...just wasn't his thing, but I don't have a picture of him on her. Later that evening he got on his rocking horse (it's actually my old rocking horse), and informed me that he was riding Megan's horsey. It was just a perfect day: the kids were very well behaved, experienced new adventures, and made some fun memories!

I like the picture of Jack and Madi holding hands--that is so sweet.
