Wow - it's been a long time since I was on here! Blimey! That just goes to show how busy our summer has been. :D
But, I'm not here to talk about the summer. Oh no. I'm hear to talk to you about horse riding. More specifically, Kezia horse riding.
In the last few months Kez has become increasingly keen on ponies (nothing to do with me, honest!) and when we go for our walk 'round the church in Ampthill, I always have to go to the paddock to pet the horses, or there's hell to pay! (Let's gloss over the occassions we make the mission to go, only to find the horses are in an inaccessible field)
So Aunty Sue (or Suzie as she now is to Kezia!) offered Kezia the oppotunity to ride her first pony. Kez was very excited when she saw 'Bill' (her cousins pony) and couldn't wait to get started. She had a wonderful time. She put his saddle on, backwards, and then his numner over the saddle instead of under, so it's a work in progress. She did, however, realise that the girth on the saddle was missing and we had to give it to her so that she could 'fick it'.
We had a lovely picnic in the field with the horses - mamma managed to avoid most of the poo, so that was a winner. You will see on the video what the highlight of her day was ...
Lots of love to you all
