Moe Carrots Please


Let it be known: Ponies are not just for little girls! OR even big girls. Caitlyn went riding, which means I went walking. Conner, stubborn child that he is, followed us all around, dragging his helmet. Finally he got a turn and rode too. It was then decided that twenty minutes of walking is entirely too difficult a work out for a fat pony. He was ushered into the lush grass of the backyard.
And it was there that I discovered the mystery of the missing carrots. First Jimmy comes out with a bag. Like any boy, he gives one to the pony, and then himself. Then the ME TOO kid comes out and repeats the process. I am currently out of carrots.
Jimmy, in a rare show of ranch-ish behavior, asked to ride while Moe grazed. I think the pony has the right idea.....

And on the boy front, Steve had to have a talk with Conner about putting rocks in the van's gas tank. Go figure.
