Horses

Lauren pet and fed the horses. Two of the youngest horses are shown here - they are just one and two years old. They are both bred from Swedish stallions, including some that were in the Olympics! Both these two jokers were too young to begin riding. They took advantage of their electric fence being off for the party to reach over and eat the grass on the other side.

Miss Lauren could have ridden the horses but decided it was a little too scary. Apparently the 2-year olds that were riding the horses didn't change her mind!

Feeding the horses was a big hit. The girls would run to the barn, grab a fistfull of hay, and then sprint as fast as they could over to the horses and gave them the few strands that stayed in their hands. They would probably still be doing it if they weren't all called to the house for cake!

Miss Lt he party looks so cool. When you come to NC again I can take you to see Miss Chris and her horse Jasper. C&C&K&J like to ride him. Even Nana did. But if he is too scary you can feed him some hay.
