Mini Horse

This past weekend we made a trip to Philly. We worked in the garden, picked blueberries, had a picnic at Mammaw and Pappaw's house and visited Pop for Father's Day. Matt helped Pappaw put up an electric fence around the garden to prevent the deer from enjoying the fruits of our all of our hard labor. The most unique part of our weekend, however, was when we met Mini Horse. Mini is the cutest little miniature horse I have ever laid eyes upon...she is tiny and isn't much taller than Caroline. Mini was a baby gift for the newest addition to our family...Amanda Lane Deweese. Lane is the daughter of my cousin Josh and his cute wife Sarah Betts. (Quite a baby gift, hugh?) Pop couldn't wait for Caroline to meet Mini Horse, but we were all surprised when she said she didn't want to ride her. Granted, we didn't have a saddle on her, but she is much smaller than the big horses she is used to riding with Pop. Maybe she just prefers to keep her little rump clean and will ride the little horse when we have the proper equipment! Since his big sister wouldn't ride, Will decided he would take the opportunity to get on his first horse. Way to go little cowboy!
