Yesterday a friend of ours invited us to go and see her pony. We went to the stables where the horse, Tinkerbell, is kept, then walked her down from her field to the yard. We watched as she was cleaned and brushed and saddled then we all walked over to another field where the children could ride her!
Emily's friends James and Lucy have been practising on Tinkerbell for a while and they are really good so we watched them then it was Emily's turn! She put on the helmet and went off for a ride! She tried lots of different things and even got up to a trot on the pony!! After everyone had been on Tinkerbell we took her back to her field and unfortunately Tom fell in a patch of nettles on the way back so he was not happy!
Emily loved riding the horse and now I think that we may end up with a very persistant child wanting riding lessons! She also shows us the Argos catelogue every day and points out the pink Nintendo DS that she wants for christmas!!
