Summer one minute, fall the next.
We recently spent an afternoon at the riding school's annual open house. Now that Louise is almost 4, she has finally realized this longstanding dream of hers. Mia just "went along for the ride", more interested in dressing the part than actually getting on a horse, but she eventually gave it a try. The horses were so patient and gentle - all the kids grabbed brushes from a big bucket to rub them down and brush their manes and tails. The older riders cleaned out the hooves while the horses just stood there calmly.
This start of autumn has been stunning and we've already made one big batch of chestnut cream. There is still a lot more gathering and harvesting to do... It's a busy bountiful time!
