Swimming Horses!!!




























Ok, Memo got me to take the plunge and use our newly painted pretty pool to swim the horses. For those of you that don't know it, we have a GIANT pool in our backyard that was originally made for equine hydrotherapy. Well I have been a big chicken about swimming the horses. My loving husband pushed me and tada... we did it. Now that we did it, I love watching them do it!






We gradually led them down the ramp that goes into the pool. Most of them were a little hesitant (except Zeeban) but we let them splash and play in there first. After they got comfy, we led them a little farther. A couple of them had a little panick right when they had no footing, but they all seemed to realize quickly they were fine. As a matter of fact, they really seemed to enjoy themselves.
