Crochet Me Crazy

It's been a busy, busy, busy week for us! We've had hundreds and hundreds of riders coming for trails rides at the stables all week. No breaks all day all week...just a steady flow of people and riders from 9-5 all day. Jeff and Alison's day starts at 6:30 am feeding the horses. By the time we're done unsaddling and feeding it's usually at least 7:00 pm before we get home. Everything has been going great though. We love it and we love all those horses. Today was the first day we actually had a break to sit down and eat lunch. We've all been eating boiled eggs alot to get by during the day. I've already lost weight this week and Jeff went down a belt notch just from working at the stable this week! Today, we did have a little girl throw a royal tantrum and start screaming that she wanted off of the horse. She was up at the front of the line with Alison so Alison ended up having to get the girl off the horse and Alison got off of her horse walked the little girl back to the barn. Red, the horse the little girl was on walked back riderless in the line just like he was walking while she was on him. He's a sweet kid horse...that horse is such an angel. It scared me when I saw Alison walking back with her horse and the little girl. I thought she had fallen off or something but no...nothing had happened. The little girl was just screaming so loud and ruining the ride for the rest of the riders.

For the past two days, the owner's grandkid's have been visiting so Alison has been playing with their little granddaughter. She's a sweet little girl. It's sweet...she loves Alison. Alison is braiding her hair...


When they have had a chance, they get on their horses and ride around the parking lot.


Well, tomorrow's another day so I'm going to hit the hay. (HA!)
