Wagon and Horseback riding!

Today Grandpa McNiven took us all on a little wagon ride with a new team that he is breaking in together.  Then Jon, the boy, and I all went on a horseback ride.  It was the first time that Landen and Gage got to ride all by themselves.  They did fantastic!!!  We all had lots of fun.  It was also the first time that the boys and I have been able to ride this year.  The weather was absolutely beautiful.  Hopefully we’ll get to go again before winter.

Horses!!!

Jon getting them all saddled up for us. (isn't he cute?!?)

The boys waiting patiently to get on their horse.

Landen getting on all by himself.

And now just as happy as can be on "Montana".

It took Gage a couple of tries but he eventually got it too.

He was then over the moon on "Dusty".

Even Anderson took a crack at it.

All four of my good lookin' boys!!!

All ready to go!

Jon leading us down the trail and still managing to
take pictures behind his back.

Oh what fun!  We sure live in a beautiful place.

After about an hours ride we headed back.  Which was just fine with me because I was already sore.  It was worth is though.  We all had lots and lots of fun.
