Randy's Visit to the Silver M Farm

This was as much a joy for Holly and I as it was for Randy. We are always waiting for any excuse to go hang out with the Morenos at the Silver M Farm. This time though, we were excited to get Randy out there and get her out on a horse ride. Randy got to help the girls get Buckshot out of the barn and get him ready for riding. Buck seemed very happy to be out with the girls.


Randy got a some quick start lessons from James and the girls as he lead her around. Randa-lyss slowly got used to it. Them thar horses be some mighty creatures. After learning to steer Buck, James lead her a little faster and got them trotting. The girls showed us how they ride bare back and how to run barrel races. Pretty impressive. We need to get out to one of their competitions very soon.

While Randy was enjoying the ride, Holly and the boys kicked it in the shade. Holly had help from Misty Rose (miniature pony) and Bella (great pyrenees) taking care of Jeremy and Jordan. Bella was really protective of the boys. She'd stay very close to them. At one point she snapped at Bella for getting to close to Jeremy. She was all over Jordan and made sure Holly was okay and didn't need any help.

Randy meanwhile was getting pretty comfortable with Buck. Shelly took over for James helping and James headed inside to get the grill going. Randy stayed glued to Buck. She got to the point where she was able to ride around on her own. We finally got her off Buck and we were lured back to the house with the smell of grillin' burgers. Jeremy was all too happy to get back to the house and just chill out while we ate. We had to planned to jump in the pool, but it got late quick. So we eventually pulled ourselves away from our gracious hosts and hit the road. It is way too easy to forget the time and just pass the entire day and night there. Way too inviting and relaxing out there.


Can't wait to get out there again and play cowboys and cowgirls. Check out all the photos on the day at our KodakGallery Photo Album here. And of course...got plenty of video of Randy:
