3.31.14 Horses and Hot Dogs

We got a surprise visitor over spring break. A special man in our ward brought us two wooden rocking horses. We had purchased one at the young men/ young women fundraiser dinner and he kindly brought us two. The kids were ecstatic. They are beautiful and fun. All the kids enjoyed them.

The next day we were treated to even more horse experience with a visit to Uncle Ty's and Aunt Rachel's. My girls are infatuated with horses. In fact they even read horse encyclopedia books about breeds. They read any book that has a horse in it. They were in heaven. Although after their ride they admitted it's harder than it looks in print.

 

In the between time of riding the horses there were adorable baby goats and fun dogs that would chase sticks all day long. It was a great way to spend some of the spring break.

Reed had more fun playing fetch with the cow dogs. The dog would bring any size piece of wood to be tossed for his retrieval. Mark was in cow heaven. This would be his lifestyle of choice.

After loving all the farm animals we headed to a hot dog roast. I can say after 2 hotdogs and 4 smores that was enough for this year! It's always fun to cook over a fire and no one got beaned with a flicked flaming marshmellow although we tried a few times too many for this mom.

And the littlest horse rider finally got her turn when the big kids went to bed.
