Horseback Riding

This was Ava's 2nd time horseback riding and it was a lot more adventurous than the first time. In Brown County there was only one stable that would let a child under 8 ride on a trail. Since we definitely wanted to do a trail ride, Mike made reservations for us to ride at Schooner Valley Stables. http://schoonervalleystables.homestead.com/

It was a much wider ride than the trail last time. We went on an hour tour of the woods around the stables and into Yellowwood State Park. It was a very hilly ride and I would say it was more like riding up a mountain and coming back down. Ava definitely did not like going down and got a little panicky. I also got panicky when our horse, Big Red, decided to venture out on his own and then my bridle came lose and I had no control over him. Ava also did not like galloping on the horse. This particular stable is the only one in IN that you can actually run on the horse. Ava liked it for the first couple of feet and then she was over it. However, it was a great ride, the trees were just starting to turn and it was beautiful. Here are the rest of the Brown County pictures taken by Mike and Bo.

Eye Candy from Indiana

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the little village in Brown County, Indiana. There are a lot of photos here so I am sorry for you all that have slow loading pages. It was so hard to choose those! There were mums everywhere and fall displays. It was just so gorgeous there!

Ava and I are back home and she is sick with a cold. We left a day early because of her little sickness. I have spent the day lazing around and catching up on the shows I missed while gone. Tomorrow I have a Dr's appointment to make sure things have healed since the D & C and then I am having a pedicure (Thanks, Bethany). I will be posting a ton more pictures soon!

Ava and Uncle Mike. Ava has developed a fascination with motorcycles and bikers and she refused to budge until waving at these two for a few minutes.

We thought this was funny because my grandparents are Weavers and they are now owned by the Rogers'.

This reminded me of Squiggles.

These photos were taken by Bo and Mike.

You know you have too many walnut trees when you have to put out a sign.

Saloon Folk

I know my hubby will love these 2 photos. He makes fun of my family and our desire for what he calls "white trash photos." So here are our saloon girl photos with Western Mike. Note Ava's fishnet stockings...

Currently in Indiana

Ava and I are in Indiana visiting Nona and Uncle Mike. Yesterday we took a little day trip to Brown County, IN and visited a little town there. It is set up like an old time little town with lots of fall decorations, shops, and pretty scenery. We went and had saloon pictures made and went on a horseback ride. Here are a few pictures Mike took of us during the trail ride.
