Wyatt and his "pony"!

It's been a while since I've posted any sort of blog!! We all are doing fantastic!! Busy with being a soccer Mom and work/stay at home Mom! Anyways, here is a brief update on what is quickly becoming a new Wyatt obsession!

We told Wyatt he would get to ride today and like any child looking forward to something he woke up and the CRACK of dawn and came running to our room asking "Can I go ride Mack now!!" I kicked my hubby out of bed to stall for a while but Wyatt would not be deterred. . .

So before Mack even had his breakfast he had to be a 'pony'. lol All 17 hands of him!

(quick reminder of who Mack is for those of you out of the loop! Mack is our 'rescue' we got about 2 years ago as a walking bag of bones. He was around 20 - 21 years old and is an Americna Trakehner gelding, who supposidly was competitive in dressage around the area. . other than that we don't know his history. He has made a fanastic recovery and is worth his weight in gold. He will be Wyatt's first horse.)












I often wonder if Mack ever had any pep in his step. . he was a dressage champ after all. . He is a slow and steady type of boy. Perfect for Wyatt.













Edited a few photos for the scrapbook. . .lol. I think it's funny how he looks like he is in prison in these shots. . .





Leg pats. . .





Telling Mack he was a good boy.





Payment. .





And Dad says, "Thanks for being a good boy."





Last kisses.



Thanks for looking!! It was a good first day for them. Wyatt has said he wants to ride again EVERY day. lol. (oh and please ignore the halter! It's WAY stretched out form years of use and won't stay on any horse correctly but it's the one I grabbed. . .end disclaimer. .)
