To be in this family means you have to love horses and Olivia is starting to now. The end of August, before school started, we went to visit some friends that bought a horse we had for a short time. "Levi" is a beautiful horse but was a handful that needed more time than we knew we would have after coming back from China. I didn't want to see anyone get hurt so we sold him to a really nice family by Fort Atkinson that said we could visit anytime we wanted. They also wanted to meet Olivia so we took a road trip one day for a visit. Olivia seems a little intimidated by him but still liked to pet his soft nose. She actually was more intrigued by the "moo-cows" they had.
Since that day though she has been more interested in horses and I found one that is more her size for now. She also rides her bigger bouncy horse but I haven't been able to get a picture because I have to hold her on that one yet so she doesn't slide or bounce off.
I hope she grows to love horses and we can someday have the real thing again but until then, the safer, cheaper, less maintenance horses will have to do...
