First Ride in a Saddle...

...on a real horse!!! Well, technically, a pony. A man in our church owns a horse ranch and we decided to get Caedmon out of the house and do something fun. We weren't sure what he'd do when placed on the horse, but he never cried. I couldn't quite tell if he wanted to as the horse walked across the barn and Caedmon was jostled back and forth, but he was a trooper. He loves animals! He knows tons of animal signs, but horse is difficult and he hasn't quite pulled that one off yet. We're still trying!

Me trying to teach him the sign for "horse."

The ranch is called "Coyote Bill's" and

Bill thought we needed a picture with a real, dead coyote.:)
