Horseback Riding

Sophia and Hannah were able to go horseback riding over Labor Day at Sky Ranch. This is Sophia's 3rd or 4th time on a horse but Hannah's first time. Joel led Sophia around for about 30 minutes. Sophia loved it.
















Hannah was not so sure about this horse thing. She was all smiles before hand.






















But then was a bit nervous when the actual horse was in sight. We told her she was going on a little horse. It was a little horse. It was actually a mule. So it was smaller than all the other horses. I stood next to her and the horse trainer led her. She did great for about 10 minutes until the mule brayed. That scared her and she was all done. She did much better than I thought that she would. Most of the time she has been scared of horses and won't even get close to them. With that in mind she did great.

oooooo, that's Mema's Hannah!...that famous duck my head and tighten my lips and close my eyes! Now from whom would she have inherited that?! Since she's her own person...NO ONE! She "thunked" it up all by herself! Love that picture!

I didn't think Hannah could be afraid of anything!...to go from smiles so fast, and Mema wasn't there to protect you.
