Horsing Around in Southern Oregon

Yesterday was Adrienne's birthday! One of her gifts was the movie "Twilight" and she watched it and then we took her to dinner at Applebee's, her favorite place to eat! The little kids spent some time out on the deck in the hot tub. And we had fun tempting the huge birds onto the deck with unsalted peanuts. Some of them were fearless, others were very timid. It was fun to watch!
Later we took the kids to the lodge, dropping Jake off at the Basketball court on the way. We all picked out ceramic things to paint. Joseph chose to paint a racoon red and green. Annalina chose to paint a mother and child unicorn. Richard made a frog scrubby holder and I made a tile with Jospeh's hand print on it.
Today we went to the Meet and Greet with the Belgian horses that pull around the wagon rides they have on weekends. Their names are King (the brown one) and Rex and they are very large. The kids got to stand on a step stool and brush them. It was cute to watch! Friday the weather should be beautiful and we are planning to take the lil ones to the Lil Buckaroos activity where they get to ride horses and practice roping and other fun things.
