Emily horse camp

This summer Emily went to horse camp and had a great time. She is great with animals and really enjoyed this. It's kind of funny though with this camp because they did a lot of horse care and we paid for the camp! Funny to have kids who are paying to be there to clean and take care of the horses. Nonetheless, Emily had a great time.

Biking Raleigh

We took the whole family on the horse farm bike ride today. This time we were ready with carrots and apples to feed the horses. Unfortunately, the horses were far off in the fields and not close enough to feed. Scenic nonetheless.

And Aaron with a chocolate croissant because we have little food in the house these days as we prep for moving so Whole Foods by school has been an easy stop for food / snack.

Easter ride

After our Easter egg hunt, we were all going to go on a nice bike ride. Kyle and Emily were too tired and too distraught over not being able to solve the egg hunt riddle so they decided to stay back. So Jeff, Aaron, and I set out on a ride. We took a new route, through the forest and out by a farm. We ended up close to the art museum and on a path that actually goes from Florida to Maine! I can't imagine actually doing such a ride, but it was pretty neat to see that that sort of infrastructure does exist and there are people driven... errr.... ridden enough to accomplish such a feat. Anyhow, our ride was wonderful and we (Jeff & Aaron) stopped to feed the horses (I observed). And again, since I was hauling Aaron in the trailer (and I should say that the trailer is awesome and Aaron can actually contribute and pedal, but it's still heavy to haul), I made sure we got to have ice cream (Goodberry's Custard) that evening as well. Yes, I love ice cream.
