So the first part of spring break we made a quick trip to Hereford to deliver birthday presents to cousins, grandma, alot of birthdays in March.
My neice Peyton has got an obsession with horses. Her uncle's room mate just happens to have a horse. So we put on our best cowboy clothes and loaded up the wagon and here is how our day was with Chester.
The birthday girl was up first... or so she said the whole way out there... but as soon as she saw Chester.. she threw Blaine under the bus. She ended up going first, then Emily, then Blaine. The girls loved it. Blaine was more interested in the go-round thing that they train the horses on.
Emily fell in LoVe! She called her daddy immediately and asked, saying but we have all that place behind our house where that little barn is (which is a horse barn from the previous owners). You can just put up a gate. Granted... this is the daughter who begged for our cat, whom she speaks to maybe once a week. So we will get to hear how much she wants a horse for a while... until she moves onto something else. I grew up here, in this little country town, but never had country in my blood. I was always a blacktop road, Allsups on the corner type gal.... Jamie moved us "outstide" the city limits and the first time I saw a snake in my yard, I was ready to pack up and move back "into town". Now here is my little country girl ready for a horse!?!? I can hold on to her shoe fetish.. for now... until she asks for boots.

She could take horseback riding lessons in the summertime..... just sayin! Or you can get her one of those things we've got in the playroom and she can giddy-up all day long!!!!!
Now that is my kind of horse....
