So no one else is dorky enough to be hooked on a toddler snack??? :-)
About a month ago we visited some friends who live on the Wisconsin/Illinois border (they are in Wisconsin, right across the street is Illinois). They live out in the country and have 2 little boys and 2 horses. Their older boy is 6 months older than Lindsey and their younger boy is almost a year older than Allison. They also have one of those kid sized jeeps or whatever you call them. I was surprised that Lindsey had no qualms about driving it all over the place. At one point their younger son drove around with Allison in the passenger seat for over 1/2 hour. Allison LOVED it. Riding the horse, not so much at first, as you will see. But she did ride for a little bit. Lindsey, on the other hand, loved riding the horse. I had to walk alongside Allison while she rode as my friend led the horse around. The horse was HUGE! I was probably more scared than Allison. :-)

I used to live right on the IL/WI border myself! (Salem, WI) Lovely territory. Lots of snow, though.
Wow,they are not only adorable, they are very brave! Looks like fun!

Awww....Allison looks so tiny on that big horse! And Lindsey looks like a natural!
Hope all is well with you, Eileen! Have a wonderful Sunday! : )
I love the photos with the wind blowing in the girls' hair. Such natural beauty!
We tried Hope on a pony ride at our home town festival this weekend...no go here as well. She wouldn't even get on. :) Maybe next year.

Eileen, how awesome for your girls, they look like they really enjoy driving, thank goodness it will be a few years for our girls to start driving, it's bad enough having 2 boys driving. LOL Hey, I know we had talked about the Lifest in WI, did you see where that will be Stevens first concert since the loss of Maria, I am sure it will be quit emotional. Lot's of prayer will be needed to get him through that I am sure, not sure if we are going or not????
adorable horse pics!
