Last Minute Christmas Gift

A few days before Christmas I got an email from Groupon and for $60 you could get 4 30-minute horseback riding lessons in Livermore.  My girls (especially Sophie) love horses.  I thought this would be the perfect Christmas gift for them.  Turns out I was right!  Every morning after Christmas they woke up and asked me how many more days until the lessons.  January 7th was our first and they were in heaven on the ranch.  Yesterday was the second lesson and not only did they count the days all week before, but as soon as we left the ranch, Sophie was already calculating how long it would be until we returned!

I didn't know you have to brush the horses out before saddling them.

On week 2, Sophie was already controlling Raquelle by herself!


Riley had fun just hanging out watching!


Miss Ashley had Avery put her hands up go so she can learn how to control a horse with her legs.

Look at my handsome man!  (And super cute baby!)

Fun for the whole family!  Makes me want to buy some cowboy boots and move to a Kentucky!!
