My dad (Pop Pop to the kids) used to ride horses in college. So when he were looking into getting a horse, the kids were excited to get some riding lessons from Pop Pop. Today, dad brought a bunch of carrots for Beau and the donkeys, to keep their attention (or perhaps distract them) while we were saddling Beau.
Here’s Iain getting his first riding lesson.
After Iain’s lesson, Macy got her first lesson. It was both exciting…and a bit scary.
Eryk hopped on next. He reminds me of me at his age. I remember my first riding experience – probably at about his age. The horse went trotting along…and I went bouncing along, and couldn’t help but giggle the whole time.
