We went to Holden all week and here is J.D., Brant, Jetta, and Parker playing cards at Great Grandma Stevens'.
We also rode Ringo while we were there. We thought it would be fun for Dawson to see the horse.
This is J.D.'s little brother Parker. J.D. rode with him first (below pic) and then let him ride alone. Afterwards we decided that he's 9.. it's about time he get familiar with a car. So we let him drive down a long dirt road. He did really good!
Here is Dawson and J.D. riding the horse. Dawson absolutely loved it! I thought it was so cute to see them both on the horse. I'm so lucky that J.D. knows how to do stuff like this. Dawson's even more lucky!
On Monday we just went to visit Ringo. (tuesday is when we rode) Story: J.D. went ahead to try and catch Ringo, but there was no need. He walked right up to me and Dawson. On Tuesday he did it again! We have a touch or just Dawson. It's a gene he inherited from Grandpa Shelley and Grandpa Stevens. They are both real cowboys.
This was Dawson's first time on the horse. It was such a neat experience.
We had such a good time in Holden. We celebrated J.D.'s parent's birthdays, and were able to spend some good quality time with everyone. It's so nice to see family and spend lots of time instead of just a weekend. Plus we want Dawson to be familar with everyone, which he was doing so good with.
