Personal Ponies

Last night as an activity for the young women in our ward we learned how to train and groom Shetland ponies. One of the Young Women leaders is involved in an organization called "Personal Ponies," where they train these animals, then gift them to children with special needs. They also visit hospitals and nursing homes, so they are very well behaved. I took Shannon and as soon as she saw them she yelled, "horsies!"

She even got to ride one for a little bit. Basically, it was a little girl's dream come true.
She wanted to sit by one of her favorite babysitters, Sarah.
This is her friend, Josh. They had a lot of fun together chasing each other and racing up and down the hill.
(P.S. Don't miss the other posts below. I got a little bit behind.)
