Off to the Races

After the baths today, we were walking the horses to get them dry. Sarah Kelly was telling us that's what we were supposed to do (she had read all this in a book from the library). So we tried and tried and they were still quite wet. So Scott came up with the idea of races. What ensued was a race between the 2 horses with different runners. Not only do these horses need some exercise but they welcomed it. When we first started, they took off so fast that their "runners" lost the harnesses and it was clear these 2 (children and horses that is) wanted to run as fast as possible.Little Man is winning this race on the home stretch.

In this race there will be a jockey, Little Man Jack will ride Little Man the horse. Even though Little Man took off with a fast trot, Jackson held onto the withers and didn't fall off.


Coming in first again!


At the finish line (the gate) which is also the starting line.


Here we go, ready, set, run!


Go, Go, Go...


Manes are flying and tails are drying.


Heading out again; Oliver in the lead.
