Hannah Riding

Hannah had been not only learning new riding skills but also learning how to care for and groom the horses! She would stay at the barn all day if she could, it's the only time she doesn't mind the bugs, heat, or cold:) Here she is at her last lesson.

Horse Riding Hannah

Hannah is enjoying her riding lessons so much she hates it when her hour is up and can never wait for her next lesson:) Her teacher said during this last lesson she could NOT get Hannah to stop talking and telling her stories about school. The teacher said that is a very good sign it means she is very confident and comfortable on the horse. (most kids who have had as many lessons as Hannah are still nervous and not that comfortable on the horse)

Hannah and Riding

Hannah is loving her riding lessons, she is doing so well that in about a month she will be able to start doing some jumps:) She is so excited. The rest of the family has been enjoying her lessons too since the weather has been so great. (Well Hannah and Chloe are less than thrilled about be outside with the bugs)

Who Loves Horses? Hannah does

Before every lesson Hannah learns a little bit about what it takes to care for a horse! On Thursday she got to help get all the loose hair off and brush Zipper. Here is a video of her posting while Zipper was trotting! At the end of the lesson Hannah was able to ride with out her teacher holding the other set of reigns! She was so excited having the horse turn to either side, trot, and halt on her command!

There has been so many blog posts about Chloe's swimming, and Abbygail's gymnastics Hannah finally got her turn! She went for her first horse riding lesson and LOVED it loved is an understatement! She learned how to pick the horse's hoof, how to trot the horse, and how to post! She was so proud and can't wait to do it again :)
