Bows bows bows

Kylie always brings me TONS of bows and wants me to put them ALL in her hair. She says to me, "Two...bows!" or " Four....bows!" Even though there are always 6-10. :-)

Sherwood

Today we went and saw my Grammy's horse, Sherwood. The kids have been so excited to go see him, and luckily we're having a mild weather week, so we took advantage of the nice weather and got out to the stables! Alyssa couldn't wait to ride him. She started horse-back riding lessons at summer school, and is really taking a liking to horses! Sherwood was so nice to let everyone ride him. :-) At school, Alyssa actually rides little ponies, so she was nervous about getting on Sherwood, who is much larger than she was expecting. So this picture is her "nervous" smile. Click on it and you will see what I mean. :-)


Kylie surprised me and wanted to ride Sherwood too!


(I walked right next to her and held on to her leg. She's just so little on that big horse!)

At first, Trevor didn't want to ride Sherwood because he thought he was too big, but after Kylie rode him, he decided it would be okay. Couldn't let his baby sister show him up!



I'm a little nervous myself around large animals, but the kids were all like, "Mom, aren't you going to ride him? C'mon Mom! Ride him!" So, I took him for a little spin. :-) Alyssa was a great photographer and snapped lots of pictures for me. :-)

Thanks again Grammy and Sherwood for a fun morning!
