Horseback Riding!

For a long time, the girls have been wanting to go horseback riding....so today we finally went!

We went to the Normantown Equestrian Center.  The girls first learned a little bit about horses first such as what they look like when they are feeling happy, mad, worried, sleepy, etc.

 

 

Then we learned about how to groom a horse and all the tools you use to do that.

 

The girls got put in groups and they got to practice grooming their horses.

 

 

Then after all they all had a chance to groom and pet the horses, it was time to saddle them up.

 

Then while we took turns riding them, we got to explore the barn and pet some of the horses.

 

 

I tried to get a picture of all the girls on a horse ride.

We had a blast.  I know some of the girls are already talking about taking horse lessons now!
