Colin and Tatum are really loving their horseback riding lessons. Colin has been learning the brushes and how to groom Buttercup. He has been working on his commands and just started doin the poles and the cones. Miss Julie has him throwing bean bags through hoops, grabbing clothespins off of Buttercup's mane for stretches and pointing to parts of his body while Buttercup is walking. Colin rides with reins and just learned the correct way to hold them. Tatum has switched horses and now rides Sparkle. Sparkle is the new pony of the bunch and is very gentle. Tatum is practicing her commands as well. She is doing Simon Says on Sparkle. She must touch her hat, her knees and hold her arms out like an airplane. Tatum rides with a horn on the saddle...it's the cutest little saddle! They are both loving this new experience and I'm loving watching them!
