Yee-Hawwww!

I found this little place called "The Little Buckaroo Ranch" that does little field trips for kids. So we went there for playgroup today. It was cute. Not necessarily what I was thinking, but they kids had a blast. We played around on a horse swing and on some log balance beams and then went up to see the animals.

Then we went over to the fish "pond." They taught them to stick their finger in just barely so the fishies would give them fish kisses. Sadie got one but Lucy did NOT! She was a little to excited and would reach in to try and grab them with an excited squeal!!! The fish weren't fans.Then we went and saw some baby chicks that just hatched...which is very unusual for this time of year. They were cute!Here is Peter Cottontail. (Not the original!! ;) but still cute)

Here, they are going on a LITTLE hay ride! They had fun though.Meet Ginger! She was the cutest minature horse. She stood there so perfectly still while all the kids got a chance to brush her. Lucy tried but took one look at the LADY and freaked out! I felt bad because she wanted so badly to touch the horses but they were not aloud to through the fence. Anyway, she didn't get to pet one. Sad.

Then we went and had a little "Texas" snack and then had our very own miniature horse show. That was the best part! The kids LOVED it! The horse ran around and they had to yell "JUMP" when it was time for the horse to jump. They of coursed LOVED YELLING LOUD!! That little horse got going pretty fast! Personally, I was shocked at how fast those little legs could go!They were LOVING it!

Then we finished off the fun with lunch and then we roasted marshmallows!

You know you had a good time when even Lucy falls asleep!

First, what is a "Texas" snack? Now on to the good stuff, what cute girls! I love Lucy's little shoes. I love how happy all the girls are telling the horse what to do! It's so nice you have so many little friends for your girls. We just wish we could live closer and be the little friends too!
