Horse Shoes

We spent last weekend out at the family ranch in San Ygnacio.  What an incredible time.  We enjoyed a quality visit with family we had not seen in a while.  The kids were so excited to wear new boots (Thank you Meg, Mandy and Mellie!), play with their second cousins and ride a horse.

We kicked off our visit with a delicious meal.  Afterwards, my cousin, George, saddled up "Bucky" for us.  He demanded that I warm her up...do you know how long it's been since I have been on a horse?!  Surprisingly, I could still walk the next day.

The kids all took a turn.  Elle and Piper learned to ride Bucky by themselves.  They were so proud and had a blast.

Cannon thought he was the real deal with his hat and boots.  After riding Bucky, Cannon referred to his boots as "horse shoes" because he associated his boots with being a cowboy and riding a horse.  The next morning he asked if he could wear his "horse shoes" to breakfast.

Piper said this was the best day because "I got to ride a horse, do a pinata, and roast marshmallows."  A great day indeed.
