The Weather!

Hi Moms and Dads,
The weather is sure giving up a run for our ponies, but not dampening our spirits!  There were a few re-rides this afternoon, but I think we have everyone on the right pony or horse now!  This afternoon, for those who were not doing a re-ride headed to the barn.  We set up 3 different stations in the upstairs barn for the kids to rotate through.  The first station was a poster contest on barn and horse safety.  The second station was on how to wrap a horse’s legs.  Uno was our patient for this station.  Our third station was a horse painting station on horse trivia; Silly was our resident horse for this activity.  The girls put paint on their hands and would be asked about the location of different parts of the horse body and had to touch the pony where they thought their scapula, or hock, etc was.
It sure is a great group of ladies and we have a lot of fun things planned despite the weather.  I think on Thursday the weather might break and we will go swimming with the horses and work on our specialties.  In the mean time we are trying to stay dry.
Signing off and trying to stay dry,
Becky
