Horse'n Around

Yesterday, Chloe and I, went to the barn to ride horses for awhile - just some good ol' pasture riding.  It was such a gorgeous day and we love being out there.  You drive through the gates and it's like driving into another world - completely laid back, no rushing to do anything, fresh air {sometimes REALLY fresh}, all the sounds of the farm animals, chasing the chickens {but once you catch them they are really sweet to hold and pet}, and I especially love the farm community family.  Truly a slice {or should I say acreage} of paradise.

Cowgirl Up!

Coco has been taking horseback riding lessons for almost 4 years now. Time flies when you are having fun! I snapped this pic at her lesson this past weekend riding one of her favorite buddies Bam-Bam {and I must add he is looking very svelte after working some weight off}. Bam, you lookin' good baby...stay away from those mares.

Every time I go out to the barn I swear my blood pressure goes down about 20 points. I guess it's something about being around the horses, open fields, farm animals, and manure. I'm just sayin...
