Riding Ponies

December 18, 2011

Ruthie has had her first school friend birthday party.  I knew she would be a social butterfly, but it warms my heart that she has found another close friend.  She loves her Anna very much and everyone at school knows they are best friends, but it is nice that they are branching out and making other friends as well.

The little girl’s dad has connections and we were able to go horseback riding at a near by camp!  Despite a minor incident with Zaccheus, Ruthie has not stopped talking about horses!   She loved it!  She giggled with glee as she trotted around the arena!

waiting for instructions :)

She looked so little up on those big horses!

Mike and I were so proud of her!

She did not even think twice about us hoisting her up there!

Caught while trotting :)

This is the horse she got thrown from!

Thankfully, it was the miniature horse and not too far off the ground!  We were proud of her, She didn’t cry at all.  She got right back up on one of the big horses and rode off!  I think the man leading the horse was more shook up than Ruthie!

What a fun day we had watching our little girl be such a big girl!

Hard to believe she will be 5 in less than 2 months!
