Day 3 - Final day of riding clinic

"When people ask me why I do this (teach clinics), I tell them because it helps make good little people." -- coach Heather

riding...

Today was Sophie's second lesson. Her confidence is definitely building.

and yet an even fuller house...

It's a busy long weekend....we have 5 extra house guests (who we are having a great time with), plus we had a visit this afternoon from my cousin, her husband and her three triplet girls.

We started the morning with Sophie's first lesson in her pony riding clinic. It was amazing! There is so much to learn about riding a horse. From cleaning and grooming to saddling it, to mounting and trotting. Sophie was really good.
Her coach Heather is wonderful - I'd love for Sophie to have the experience again. She has two more morning (1 hour each) of lessons.

Later we all went to the Armstrong I.P.E. Lots of cows, horses, chickens and some really "interesting" people.
