First Pony Ride












Last weekend, we went with Jason on a retreat for his school up in the mountains of Colorado. It was beautiful and Margaret Mary got a chance to ride her first horsie! If you know MM, you know that this is a big deal, as she LOVES horses and talks about riding them all the time. Zoom in on the pics of her face. At first she is nervous, but confident that she wants to ride the horse, and then she totally loosens up and has fun. The horse's name was "Hot dog". All he wanted to do was eat the grass on the side of the trail. Because he was holding such precious cargo, we wanted to keep him happy and let him do just that. Don't know if that's what you supposed to do with a horse, but he was holding our baby girl! When I showed MM the pics afterwards, she looked up at me with big eyes and said "Thank you Mama! Thank you!" Precious.
