Horseback Dream Come True

On Christmas Day, Hailey opened a present that had a picture of a girl riding a horse.  It was a gift of horseback riding lessons!  She was super excited and has been asking about that for months now.  Well, about a month ago, that day finally came for her.  

 Notice how she had the perfect shirt on (all planned by Hailey of course!)
 This is probably my favorite picture because I love seeing her little body with those little cowgirl boots on leading her horse.  The horse, Frosty, was a pretty old one and kept hanging its tongue out.  We thought that was really silly!

 Here is a clip of Hailey's first time trotting.  Listen to her giggle!



So far, she has gone back for 3 lessons.  I'm not sure how many we will do.  They are pretty expensive but she really enjoys it.  I guess we will see--but for now, I really enjoy going to her lesson.  We get to brush the horse, clean out its hooves, and saddle up to ride.  She is ALL smiles for the entire one hour lesson!!
