Yesterday, on the way over to the ranch, Munchkin and I decided that we would pick up some pumpkins to carve. Since a few of Munchkin’s friends were at the ranch this week, it seemed like the perfect time to carve pumpkins as it’s always more fun to do such activities with friends. These three girls were cracking me up the entire time they were carving. They certainly were having fun with the complete process. **grin**
All week the girls have been having a great time doing some fun activities and riding their horses. It’s almost been like an unplanned day camp which has been good for Munchkin and the other girls.
Munchkin and L have been racing their horses and learning more riding skills. JJ hasn’t been able to participate in the crazy riding due to her injuries, but she was able to ride her horse for the first time since her accident. On that same day, I was able to ride my horse for the first time for a brief period of time due to my cracked ribs. She and I joke around about being broken and help each other out as we can. lol!
The only real bummer about this week is that due to my ribs, we won’t be able to go out on the long trail ride today. 🙁 JJ can’t go either as they’ll be trotting and cantering on the ride, and she’s only able to ride while the horse is walking right now. (I’m pretty much in the same situation as it’s too painful to do anything other than walk while riding.) At least we know that there will be future trail rides.
