Our Wild West Adventure...

Jerry's sister, Liz from New Mexico, is visiting with us this week and today we went to Webberville to the Norfolk Horse Farm for a Wild West Adventure. They had been advertising it on tv, and whenever the commercial came on, Jalyn would always scream, "Horsie!!!!" And then Lori asked if we wanted to go, so we did and I am so glad that we did! The kids had soooo much fun and Jalyn got to ride her first pony ever.

Here is Ethan on his 1st pony ride too. They had an archery section and Jalyn wanted to do it. I was so stinkin' proud of her and it was soooooo cute to see her try and do it. They had a little train ride for the kids. Ethan was the only one that didn't chicken out. Luckily I got a picture of all 3 of them in it before Jalyn and Tommy freaked out.
They had an Alamo section and there was this little building that we went into not knowing exactly what it was. Well, it was like a maze with 12 or 13 walls back to back with just enough room for an average sized person to walk through. Not to mention that it had to have been 30 degrees warmer in there and so humid that you could hardly breathe. Well as you get further and further into in, it becomes darker and darker and the kids were becoming more and more weary of what was going on. By the end of it, they were freaking out and Jalyn had attached herself to Liz's leg and Ethan wouldn't budge a step further. I got this picture not being able to see a thing in the dark. Their faces say it all.I got to ride a horse as well and it made me feel like I was a little kid again. I didn't want to get off. I thought this picture of Tommy and Jalyn was so cute. Especially with Tommy's cowboy hat and boots. The day was a complete success. No melt downs, no bad weather, and no energy left to spend. They were sound asleep for the ride home. I would definitely recommend going with your kids and I am definitely planning on doing it again next year!
