Riding Lessons

Emma has been riding horses now for a year.  Me and Riley thought we would get in on that.  As of today me and Riley have had 2 whole lessons.  I can now get off the horse by myself.  Thanks to Riley passing out on his horse. (he's fine).  We have even gotten up to trotting with our horses while Emma the more advanced rider is working on Cantering.  Morgan did have a dream recently about Emma carrying the Flag while riding a horse opening a show.

 

 

 And Yes I'm already texting and riding.  I had my phone with me so I took a couple of pictures on our last ride.  So some of them are blurry.

Winter Blast December 26-31 2010

So while all of us were enjoying our new Christmas presents in our nice WARM homes...  Ethan, Ammon, Nephi and Lamar were at winter blast for the week.  When we signed them up for the scout camp who knew it would be in the 20's for almost every night.  After all this is Florida last time I checked.  They had a great time from what I hear.  I don't know if they would say other wise.  At the end of the week they did a "polar plunge" which at that point it made it out of the 50's for them.
