Here's Jackson and Jared. Jackson takes after his whimpy old mom and is VERY cautious of animals.
Tanner is not so cautious...about ANYTHING!
Here are the boys and some of their cousins.
I've ridden a horse twice. The first time the horse fell over while running and the second time we got lost up in the mountains at night. But even after all that Jared convinced me to get back on, but I don't think we even made it around the whole backyard before I wussed out. So here's me trying to get off the horse. I enjoy a lot of things. Handing my life over to an oversized animal is not one of them. But the kids really had fun and so did Jared despite the "raw hide" :)
Here's Jared, after a long day of riding horses, he thought he'd give his hide a break. That's just about what happened when he sat down fast into that hammock.

That looks like a lot of fun! Sara, I hope you can overcome your fear of horses. They are kick-butt animals.
I do not know (or remember) these stories of you falling off the horse. You will have to update me sometime.
BTW- You.Me.Lake Powell.Last week in Sept. Does it sound fun? I will call you.
You take after your mother. I thought for years that she wanted to go horse back riding in Wyoming--I could have sworn she mentioned it whenever we went past a dude ranch or riding stable. We finally went for a short ride at Amy's ranch, but not before we did a lot of prodding and cajoling. Finally she decided to go, and she complained for days afterward about her sore back. Guess that was the end of horses for her.
