It's cooling off...

We're finally getting a small taste of fall weather down here and it's making everyone giddy!  Beautiful weather = happy moods!

Cochise


Cade finally got to ride Cochise again after a long time.  Cochise is his favorite horse and he's been asking to ride him for awhile.  Finally, his amazing teacher Cassandra, got Cochise for him.  Cde did very well.  He has to be reminded occasionally of keeping his back straight, heels down, and eyes forward but he does very well with leading Cochise.  And look at him trot all by himself, without a lunge line!

Old MacDonald's Farm

We had a "staycation" recently and we spent one of our days at Old MacDonald's Farm.  It was HOT!!  It seems like a great place to spend time at when the weather is a little cooler.  There were a few deer roaming around (along with peacocks) and we were able to feed them. We were also able to go into pens and pet the animals as well as feed them...sheep, goats, calves, rabbits, pigs. 

In the goat pen, a little pygmy goat (so stinkin' cute!!) kept trying to eat Camden's shirt. Ha!  I had to keep pulling her shirt out of it's mouth.  Camden also got to ride a pony for the first time ever!  It's name was Andy and Camden did a good job.  She acted real cool about it...I thought for sure she would be super excited since she loves horses so much.


We finally got to hot and had to leave.  We ended up at Chick-Fil-A getting milkshakes. :-)
