Aria's First Horseback Riding Lesson - Jan. 27 2019

Aria has been very interested in horses lately and has been asking for horseback riding lessons. While we have an introductory lesson scheduled for next week at a riding stable a friend of Ted's who is also a riding instructor offered to give Aria a lesson with one of her horses, whose name is Red. We met our friend, Terri, at a park and Aria got to learn how to respectfully meet and groom a horse and then got a an introductory riding lesson. It was all very wonderful and Aria is looking forward to her lesson at the riding stable and to a next chance to ride Red.

Here's a video of the experience. In total, our time with Terri and Red was about two hours long.



Here are some photos along the way. Aria and Red really seemed to hit it off together.

That was so awesome! I used to love to ride horses but haven't done so in about 30 years. I was very much an amateur and just did trail rides with a guide when I lived up north.
Red is a beautiful horse and Terri was a very calming person to give instruction.
You did super Aria! I know you are looking forward to your future lessons. Have fun!!!!
Love you,
Nana Sheryl
