On the third day of our trip, we went on a beautiful horseback ride with about 20 other extended family members. It was fun.

Suited up and ready to go! |
|
Andrew was assigned a horse named AB! So we just believed that stood for Andrew Burbank. |
|
Daddy rode with Ethan on Shiloh. |

Here's another shot Jon took. |
|
Andrew's horse ended up being a little cantankerous (he kept trying to veer off the trail to snack), and I was two horses back from him. So, Heather kept him tethered to her for the remainder of the ride, which was so sweet and worked out lots better. |

I took this, looking back. Christina's in the blue right behind me, Justin is behind her in the sunglasses, and you can see Jon waaay back there in the red jacket. |
|
All in all, Andrew did a great job controlling his horse. I was only a nervous mommy during the many trail moments where there were massive cliffs on either side of us, or when we were going up/down very steep inclines. |
|
He had just been a cowboy in the Rocky Mountains, but was most impressed
with this lightsaberish stick he found after the ride. Sigh. |
This was an amazing experience we were lucky to have. I will never forget it, and hope the boys won't, either.
