Horse back riding

Patrick's family had a day off of school a few weeks ago and they invited Alden and me to go ride horses with them.  They have extended family that have horses and they only live about an hour away.  It was a beautiful day and we were so excited to go.  Alden loves seeing the horses again and I really enjoyed getting on a horse again.  I hadn't been on one in a number of years, but I've always loved horses and had a lot of fun.  Alden came with me for a few laps in the corral and then we took the horse out in the field.  After Alden was done riding I got to ride solo for about 15 minutes and let the horse run in the field.  I wasn't out there for too long, but definitely was a little sore from riding that afternoon.  Alden and I hung out with family and had a picnic the rest of the afternoon.  It was fun and can't wait to do it again hopefully when Patrick can come and not have school.
