Horses!

Olivia's enjoying the fact mom and dad have finally followed through with her JULY birthday gift of horseback riding lessons! Her first lesson in January, she got to groom and saddle her horse and then lead him to the corral. She learned to post (stand up in the saddle) and was told she did the best the teacher had ever seen for her first time to post! She loves it and wants to do it again soon! But maybe we'll wait for the weather to warm up a little!

Grace-ism:
"'Shy' is when you don't want to say 'hello' to anybody else.
I used to be shy when I wasn't a big girl. That was when it was Monday, I think. Now I am a big girl and Special!"

Life right now

On Wednesday after Thanksgiving I got to learn to Scuba Dive with my friends Ashley and Andrew. We had a great time. I had a really fun time. I hope I can do it again.
Breathing underwater was really cool.
