Horseback Riding!

The other evening, my mom took the kids horseback riding on some of her horses. In these pics...the kids are all riding on Coby. Sorry they are so small...my sister emailed them to me and these are the size they are! LOL These pics were taken in my sister's front lawn...but that isn't her house in the top pic..that is her neighbors! My mom is leading M in the first pic...then below is J and then X is at the bottom!


They really enjoyed it! Although, J was super scared. But now he tells everyone that he "rode Coby"! That evening, I wasn't there...Chris and I had gone to pick up a truck that he is hoping to fix up (another project...hehe). So Devon took these pics to share with me...and I thought it would be nice to share them with you...even though they are small. LOL

OH!!! And yesterday was my "weigh in day"! I went to my dr's office and got weighed...and...i lost another 3 lbs!!!! WOOT!!!! That is a total of 8.5 in 2 weeks! To God be the glory. I know it is He who is my strength in all this! Finally.....the extra weight is coming OFF!!! Hope you all have an absolutely wonderful friday and a blessed weekend!!! xoxo

    Yay for another 3 pounds!!! You're doing so good, Katy.
    The kids look like they're having a ball!! I remember the first time I got on a horse... I think I was 6or 7- it tried to rear up on me and I peed my pants!

    "Weigh" to go on the weight loss!! I grew up on a ranch, and loved riding horses. We had several--some nicer than others. Horses are a beautiful animal. Lucky kids to be able to ride. My girls would love to do that. Have a splendid weekend.

    You are on a roll now with weight coming off. Good for you. Keep health as your focus. :) Acutally, God first, then health. :)

    Horses are so fun. Your daughter may be interested in a magazine titled, "Bit and Bridle" Living life, loving horses. The May - June issue just came out. Their web site is: www.bitandbridle.com

    This magazine was begun by Emily Echols, daughter of Tim Echols, founder of Teen Pact. www.teenpact.com or org. That too, is a 'wonderful' program. :)

    Blessings!

    Hi Katy,

    Thanks for stopping by and leaving such sweet comments. Your kids are adorable! I used to teach in a little preschool and I sure miss the kiddo's.

    Thanks for th ekind words for the newlyweds. My Dh and I have been married 33 years and Angela's parents almost 27 so they have good role models.

    I am adding your link to my blog and plan to come back often and some rainy day, I'll read backwards too.

    Oh and congrats on the weight loss! I know the struggle!
    hugs, Linda

    Congratulations on being 3 pounds closer to your goal! How exciting!

    That horse is as cute as can be. I just love paints. They're my favorites. I am hoping to begin Colton in a hippotherapy program. I've read that it is great for the hips of kids with CP.

    What a lovely time for the children!

    Blessings,
    Lea
