Neither did Brooklyn....
So we just stuck him on another one.
Beckett loves the water. As long as he can throw rocks he is happy! you can see a little bit of Emree pulling back from me cause I was trying to get her to go in, I don't think she even touched the water the whole afternoon.

My brother in law's family have this awesome little cabin down in New Mexico, about 2 hours from where they live. They pasture cows up there and so they stay in this cool cabin. It is a real cabin, no electricity, no phones, notta nothing. It's awesome!! So we went up there Tuesday afternoon and stayed till Wednesday night. The kids had fun swimming in the creek, roasting hot dogs, and sleeping in the tents. On Wednesday Chas kept the kids while Trina and I went with Cord for the day. He had to move some cows, look for some others and doctor a sick bull. I was so excited, a whole day on horse, with no one to take care of. Ahhhhh the peacefulness and solitude. Well we were gone all day thats for sure about six hours into our ride Trina and I were beginning to feel quite sore. We stopped and talked to some other guys who were up there checking their cows and Trina and I overheard this, " Cord you guys are still like 5 hours from the cabin, you better get moving." Trina and I looked at each other and because of course we couldn't cry we laughed! Are you kidding, 5 more hours, we already could hardly walk. Oh my!!! When we asked Cord how long it really was, he said," Well depends on how hard you want to ride."
I have never trotted for so long, on a horse, on purpose before, nor will I do it again! (unless I go with Cord) I thought I was going to die, needless to say I slept well that night! and it ended up being like 4 1/2 hours from the cabin. I would totally do it again though anytime, it was awesome! The country is beautiful, we saw elk, deer, coyote and even a water snake. We ended up riding for 10 hours that day, and Cord even said he was a little sore, so I didn't feel so bad after that. What a great day! Thanks Cord, for letting me tag along, I loved every second of it! The only thing to make it better would be to bring Chas along with me.
