A boy named after a horse gets to meet a horse

Colt has recently become very interested in horses. He loves that he is named after a horse. He had so many questions about horses: do they wear coats, what do they eat, how fast are they, what do they like, etc...

One of my sweet friends owns a horse and has said on many occasions that we would always be welcome to come meet him and maybe ride him. So incredibly generous!!! Well since Colt has been showing interest I asked her if him and I could come out with her sometime. She so sweetly said, "of course!"

First they brushed the horse together and got him ready to go into the ring.

After that we walked him to the ring and Colt got to ride him. He was very nervous! Horses are much larger in person than they seem in pictures or shows. So that totally caught him off guard! But after watching my friend ride around he was ready!

When we finished riding we got to give the horse some apples and carrots we brought. Colt was so fascinated with the horses teeth! Ha!!!

This was such a neat experience for him and I am thankful our friend is so generous with her horse!
