Last Few Days

Well we have had a great last week here at Trail West. It's bittersweet to be headed home tomorrow. I really think that I would stay all summer if I could... easy for me to say seeing as though I don't have a job while I am here. Logan has had so much fun being outside and being around so many people. We are interested to see what she does this next week without 50 people greeting her at every meal and various people picking her up and playing with her. She has LOVED it... I love it, too! I love that she is getting loved on by so many people. Anyway... here are a few more pics of our family over this last week.

Wednesday morning we were able to go to Wrangler breakfast. We get to eat breakfast made by "Cowboys" over a fire. Here Daddy is helping Logan catch her flying french toast.

This was our view of Mt. Princeton during breakfast.... amazing!

On our way back to the lodge on "Big Red".

The ride was a bit cold and bumpy so Logan snuggled close to Daddy.

Our little family last night before dinner in the Aspen Grove.

This morning, Kyle and I got to go on a horse ride. We had a lot of fun. Most of you know that I grew up riding horses but it has been a while since I have ridden and Kyle and I have never ridden together. Trail West incorporates horses quite a bit into the week. We got to do an "Arena Ride" which is about an hour of running drills, etc. in the arena. It was fun to do something a little more than a trail ride. (Again, check out the view behind us!)

Later in the day, we brought Logan back down to the barn to see the animals again. Here is the crazy goat, Ears, fighting with Kyle. Pretty funny - I got a video of Kyle and Ears fighting. I'll try to post it later.

Then, Logan got to do a pony ride!!! I was afraid that she was going to be a bit timid at first and that by the time she warmed up to it, it would be time to go, but she LOVED it. This picture above is from when we first put her on Mack, the pony. No fear!

Is that not the cutest pony you've ever seen? He was so gentle and great with the kiddos!

Mack was licking Logan's hand in the picture...

Then we stopped to see a big horse on our way to the car... she cried when we left. I think she would have stayed out there all day if we'd let her.


That's all for now... I have more TW posts yet to post... I'll work on it when we get home. We leave tomorrow morning, will stay in Amarillo tomorrow night and then be home Sunday afternoon. This month has truly been a gift to us and we are so grateful for the opportunity to serve here at TW and look forward to many more memories for our family being made here!!
