School today was so much easier than yesterday. I think staggering the start and settling each individually is so much easier. We finished by 12 o'clock toady which left time for another horse ride. Today I even had him cantering, it feels so comfortable that I am actually surprised. Dancer is an Ex trotter so can be a little bumpy to begin but he really settles down well after that. Again today I rode for about 45 Min's and he even began to work up a sweat. The kids each had a ride. They all think he's great especially Luke who walks all around his legs and could probably walk under his tummy without a problem in the world. He hugs him and kisses him and tries to hang from his neck. I would have thought Luke having such a big height difference may have been apprehensive, but as with all things Luke does he just jumped in feet first assuming again as Luke does that the horse like so many other things will just love him.
looking like a dot sitting on the horses back he is lead around the paddock without a saddle, Luke just holding onto his mane. Maybe we have a cowboy in the making.
Tove needed to buy a new fridge and do the fortnightly grocery shop and had to drop the car of for a service. It was a 2.5 hour drive from the farm to the town. She left here at 7.30am and got home again at 7pm talk about a massive day!
Here are some pictures of things on the farm for those who have requested more "boy" photos
