This summer the Cub Scouts have only met for a few activities. Today's activity was horseback riding and fishing (but we ran out of time to fish, much to Simeon's sadness).
We went out to a horse place just past the Johnson County Fairgrounds. I had no idea that there was a horse corral out there. It wasn't the cleanest and organized of facilities, but they were very nice and good at what they did.
The activity was for the cub scouts, but families could come out too. We ended up being the only family that came out. Since the activity was for the boys, our kids could ride horses if there was time. They taught the boys how to groom a horse and they all picked a different horse to groom. There ended up being a horse that wasn't being groomed, so our kids got to take care of that one. And since they had enough horses out our kids also got to ride the horses. We didn't ask about Rebecca riding until the very end. She was excited to get to ride a horse just like the big kids.
While the boys were riding horses I took some pictures of them, but I couldn't get the lighting right in the arena so not many turned out, so I took the other kids outside to look around. I love the look of old buildings with the paint chipping off and the little quirks that older buildings have, so I wanted to get some pictures of the kids out there.
Corrine is our cowgirl and really wants to take riding lessons.
