Cowgirls Dont Cry

We are really lucky to have family with horses. Abby wants a horse soooo bad. No, make that soooo, soooo bad. Unfortunately its not in the cards for her right now, but her saving grace is her cousin Preslee who cares for three horses herself.

(Side note: A little while back Abby and I were talking about future Halloween costumes and I mentioned that she should be a cowgirl next year.She replied with, "Mom, you cant be something you already are for Halloween.)

Last week, Preslee taught Abby how to put on a saddle, clean the horses hooves, and feed and water them. Not to mention the two girls rode around the arena together for hours. It was wonderful! Abby left their house singing...."Cowgirls Don't Cry....Ride Baby Ride."

Thank you to the Whettens for being so accommodating to my cowgirl wanna-be.
