Gone Ridin'

We finally made it over to Grammy and Poppy's house this last weekend. We've all had a pretty busy last few months with activities/trips planned every weekend. It's been hard to get over to the Gerstmann Ranch to visit :( Anyway...Ryland was just dying to ride the horses as soon as we got there. He's always had this thing for horses but was really timid being too close to them - they are such big animals. This past year, he's been getting over his fear and has even gone riding a few times. Unfortunately he's also allergic to them so we have to wash his hands really good after riding/feeding or else he's breaks out in hives. He has the same reaction with dogs and cats - we're hoping it's something he'll grow out of the more exposed he is.

Here are some pictures from his ride and a few others. I just had to post the last one - it was just too cute and too perfect - a little potty break. Love the little tush and cowboy hat combo :)

That last picture is classic! That should be on a postcard or a book.
