A Pony Party!

I feel like I've been playing blog catch-up lately. We've been busy-busy (what's new) and work has been crazy for both Chris and I. 

We've had a lot of play dates with our new neighbors. Brooke is 2 and Lizzie is 4 - so it's a perfect pairing.

Last weekend, Madeline was invited to a birthday Pony Party for a preschool class mate. It was the wildest party I've ever been to. It was at a stable in Goshen and was jam-packed with pony activities.

I took several pictures but some are blurry due to my cracked, broken phone. (Don't ask.)

First, Maddie got to lead a miniature pony through an obstacle course.

She got to ride a horse.

She enjoyed brushing one of the ponies.

She roped a "bull."

She fed a horse.

Then, and here's where it gets crazy, they PAINTED a horse.

And in between all the activities she got to jump around a barn stall full of hay and hay bales.

We had a blast!
