The Springer Residence-Menomonie, WI
I took the kids over to see how Carol & Erinn were doing. Carol mentioned to me that she'd let the kids ride the horses, so of course they were totally pumped! We had a nice visit. I haven't been out to the house in a long time, so it was good to be there and see all the changes. Luke & Emry really thought it was neat that a ladder was tied to the wall in the living room (leads up to the loft). At least until I told them that when I was little there was a rope swing too! Those were good times!
The kids were totally in love with the horses. They helped Erinn feed them and they were able to pet them too...very very exciting! I don't think any of my kids even took their eyes off of them.
This is Kaia. She's old and blind, but very nice. She was so good to let the kids be around her.
Here is Erinn. Carley really took a liking to her and barely let her out of her sight
while she was there. Erinn used to babysit Luke & Emry when we lived in Colfax,
so it was fun for them to see her too. They'd forgotten what she looked like, which is funny because when they play, her name often comes up.
This is Lace. She was more feisty than Kaia, but still super with the kids. In fact, she didn't really pay any attention to them at all...she only wanted to eat the good grass!!
Emry didn't stop smiling...until it was time to get off.
Luke was very annoyed to have to have Carley ride with him. He got his own ride later.
...and so did Carley.
Here I am with Carol.
Thanks for letting us visit and ride your horses!! Can't wait to do it again, soon!
