I should've added these weeks ago so they wouldn't get lost in the mess of pictures I have from the rest of our trip. Coulda Woulda Shoulda I guess. :)
Our second day at Grandma's we got the horse out for the kids to ride. Jeffrey LOVED it! He's a natural born horse jokey. Ben liked it, but not enough to let the horse do anything more than a slow walk, and Megan liked it just long enough to look out at Ben and Jeffrey and say that SHE was on the horse and not them, and then she was done and wanted down. Here's a few pictures of them riding Grandma's horse.
Such a natural! It shouldn't surprise me that Jeffrey gets along better with large animals than he does people I guess. :)
So focused.
Ben's all smiles on top of the horse.
Grandma led the horse in a circle with the rope.
Ben hanging on tight!
Ben made up a song about riding a horse while he went around the stable.
Little Missy and the big horsey.
This is where she was about to wave to the boys saying "Hi Ben! Hi Jeffrey! Look! I'm riding horsey!"
This is the beautiful lake we went up to see to get a break from the heat near the Utah/Colorado border.
Grandma let Jeffrey use that green device to throw Tessie's ball into the water......or course he threw it so hard he fell in!! Luckily we had some towels left in the car from our swimming trip the day before!
Tessie was pretty cold from fetching balls in the freezing water. Any time I threw it too far out she'd just whine by the water's edge....we had to leave a few balls behind.
Ben's dirty face.
I snapped these two photos on our way back down to the valley.
