Summer Rec...Riverside Horse Stables


First at Riverside Stables they showed us a clean stable that the Vets use when they come to visit a horse.  Each owner  has a special wooden "trunk" that stores their equipment, bug spray, medicine etc.  The owner was the first speaker and lets just say...wasn't the best speaker around little ones.  She kept saying "Jacking Around." Courtney and I just kept looking at one another! :)

Courtney and I couldn't get over how scary this horse looked!  We couldn't stop laughing!!!

Each child got to give the horse a special treat.

We learned about different horse shoes.

Here is a horse tooth!  They had a bag full of "clean" horse teeth to show the children.

Each child got to saddle the horse with a little assistance.

Ellie rode the horse one time; however, others rode three times.  She chose not to because her belly was bothering her.  THIS GIRL REFUSES TO EAT BREAKFAST! Rrrrrr!

Next, they were able to brush the horses.

We even got flavored ice and got to go on a hay rack ride.

Ellie loving on the horse.

This girl loves cats too! Not sure where that came from. :) This will definitely be a summer rec program we will sign up for again next summer (if it's available).  We definitely enjoyed ourselves.
