Sadie had horse riding lessons yesterday, and she got a big surprise! Her trainer, Emily, thought that she was ready to ride Kaelyn without Emily holding onto her rope and leading her! Sadie was nervous at first I think, but once she got going, she did AWESOME! Emily had her take Kaelyn in a serpentine pattern around 8 cones, and then in a figure 8 and then in a big circle. It was funny, Kaelyn went very slowly at first, she knew that Sadie wasn't sure of herself. Then as they got going, Kaelyn would go a little faster. It was evident by the time they were done that Kaelyn trusted and had confidence in Sadie. It was really neat to watch my little girl control such a huge animal and have it do what she asked. I am so proud of Sadie!
Cleaning Kaelyn's feet
Ready to go!
Taking a sharp turn
Way to go, Sadie!
A little brotherly love
Drew loves to help at feeding time, though he doesn't like the smell of the horse food!
