Aunt MerMer wanted to give Lily an experience for her birthday gift this year so she decided to take her horseback riding at the Benbrook Stables. Lily had wanted to ride horses when we were in Colorado this summer but we just couldn't find time so she was thrilled when Meredith told her what they were going to be doing. I wasn't going to go but it was such a beautiful day that I decided at the last minute to join them!
Lily rode a horse named Turtle. She was a little nervous at first but quickly became comfortable riding.
Aunt MerMer's horse was named Rebel and mine was Blaze, which is ironic because he was the slowest horse in the group and was at least several paces behind all the other horses the entire trail ride! There was definitely nothing fast about Blaze!
This was my view the whole ride!
The trail ride lasted an hour and Lily loved every minute of it!
It was such a fun afternoon and an experience that I know Lily will never forget! Thanks Aunt MerMer for such a memorable birthday outing!
