Easter in the Park

The local park had a Easter egg hunt the week before Easter.  Mucho candy!!!

Ryan's Wrestling Tournament

Ryan's school sent home a flyer for a wrestling clinic and he wanted to do it....so he did.  They had a tournament at the end of the clinic and all the boys (and one girl) got medals.  Ryan made friends with a boy named Elijah who he goes to school with.  They really seemed to have a good time.

New Visitors

We had a couple of visitors last week, thankfully only the dog returned to play.

First Horse Rides for the kids.

One of the doctors invited us down to her stable to visit her horses.  She has a 4 year old pony named Puddles and a retired race horse named Gracie.  The kids stuck to Puddles...the race horse is a bit wild.

Before riding they were taught how to be safe around horses and got to help groom Puddles.  If you think cats shed a lot, you have not been around a horse that sheds!

The kids really liked giving Puddles treats...she ate treats right out of their hands.

There were seven other horses on the farm, a couple of Tennessee Walkers - they're the ones that walk real pretty and a small Shetland pony that is 40 years old named Molly - Lynda believes that if they had a birth certificate on her, she would probably make it in the Guinness book of world records for age.
