We had a fun, relaxing Memorial Day this year. We spent the morning doing little projects around the house and running errands and then went out to my parents' to shoot Matthew's new BB gun and ride horses. Our main goal was to fix Matthew's bike tire, and we'd spent the morning searching for tire patch kits (they were sold out of everywhere!) and then somehow managed to forget the tire tube.
Learning safety rules first...
William can't wait until it's his turn!
He's a pretty good shot too!
Hailey was more interested in the cats than the gun.
The cat is almost as big as she is and she insisted on carrying it everywhere. Lucky it is such a nice cat.
We tried to let Willy pet a cat but poor thing just got it's ears and whiskers pulled and eyes poked in a fraction of a second before I could wrench his grabby hands away, ripping out hair along with it.
William did enjoy his first time on the horse! And Hailey loves it as much as ever, my little cowgirl.
As Matthew gets older he's starting to enjoy horse riding a little more. I think when he was younger it made him nervous because of his balance issues, just like he wasn't really interested in riding a bike until he was almost 4 and still doesn't like to go too fast. This time they went on a really long ride and Grandpa said Matthew was enjoying it and singing all the way!
