Spring Break Day 1 - Equine Rescue

We went on our annual trip to the local Equine Rescue today with the MOMS club. The kids had fun feeding the horses, seeing the donkeys, running around, and just being silly. Here are a few pictures from our morning.

Checking out a pony.

Both Anna and Lucy are in awe.

Feeding the horse.

Dylan was kind enough to share his apples with us since we were slackers and forgot to bring our own.

Anna was more interested in playing in the grass than feeding the horses.

Trying to get a picture of our little group, but Jack was standing on an ant hill and ended up with ant bites as a result.

Petting the donkeys. We had a little review of our Sunday School lesson here and Anna practiced shouting "Hosanna!"

And then she moved off to play in the rocks with her friend from dance, who is new to the MOMS Club. She had a blast playing with her today!

Lucy LOVED the donkeys! She kept reaching for their ears and petting their heads.

Up close and personal!

Practicing his skills on the horse jumps.

Most of the group.

Jack is our inquisitive firstborn. At five years old, he’s extremely interested in how things work and will ask a ton of questions until he gets a satisfactory answer. He's an active kid who enjoys running, jumping, and playing outside. However, give him a video game and he would sit and play all day if we let him. Lover of anything "Buzz" these days, he's definitely all boy. But don't let him fool you, he still has fun playing princesses with his sister! He is a great helper and loving big brother and his deep dimples melt our hearts every time he smiles.

Anna is our spunky three year old. She wants to do everything her big brother does, as long as she can do it while wearing a dress. She is Miss Independent most of the time, and certainly has her own sense of style these days. She loves being a helper around the house, and when she's in the mood, she's the best cleaner upper in the family! She enjoys reading books, singing, dancing, coloring, and playing dress up with her brothers. She will always be our baby girl, and has the biggest, sweetest blue eyes we’ve ever seen.

Sam is our stubborn number three. He's a stinker who manages get into EVERYTHING! It's hard to resist that wide smile and mischievous giggle, though, even when he's up to no good. He's a boy on the move and will do anything to keep up with his older siblings. He loves balls, trains, playing outside, and wearing everyone's shoes but his own. Some days he's still our snugly little boy, and that's quite alright with us because that boy with the toothy grin has brought an enormous amount of joy to our family!
