The back end of our property borders a rolling field with a stream, great line of trees at the top, etc.  The owner has horses & a pony & they’ve been grazing at our property line recently.  Since the weather’s been warmer, I’ve been going back there to find great spots for pictures.  The other day I noticed that the horses were kind of near the property line, so I thought, “I’d like to go down there when I see the horses, so they can get used to me & know I’m friendly!”  The next day, I looked down there & Walla!  There they were!  So I grabbed my camera to get some pictures & this is what I saw:

And my favorite:

Photos tell life’s stories!  These photos tell the story of Jessica & horseback riding.  Now Jessica will be able to look back & remember the fun she had with the horses that she loved & that taught her many things about life and herself.

Jessica is in the 6th grade.  She’s been horseback riding every week for a few years now.  She has learned responsibility and also learned that she can take on a challenge and be very good at it!

 It was a beautiful day to ride horses:

The horse saw Jessica approaching & knew snack time was over!

Jessica has to get the horse prepared:

And lead the horse to the riding area:

Ready to go!

 

 This is 1 of my favorites….To me, it has a Ralph Lauren feel to it  :O)  :

 

Jessica going to her teacher to get further instructions:

 Another 1 of my favorites!  This would look really pretty on a large canvas:

The horse is very gentle with Jessica, following the commands she gives it:

 Thanks Jessica, for letting me enjoy a day in the life of your special hobby!
