Horses

Several days ago, one of my students' parents' invited me to go horseback riding with them at their ranch.

This is my student Abbey with one of her Grandma's horses. His name is Montana. Abbey is a barrel racer. I've seen pictures of her racing. The plan was to ride for awhile and then I would go out and watch one of her racing lessons.

Here I am with Abbey. The horse I rode was Apache. It was a lot of fun.

Here's their cute little family. The mom is expecting a baby soon - another girl. I went out to the practice, but they were just working on technique and not really racing so I didn't stay too long. My camera battery had died and I was freezing, but other than that, it was a great time!
