Horses in Auburn

A few weekends ago, we spent the weekend in Auburn with Rodney's Mom and Dad..."Nona and Papa". Beau LOVES to go to Auburn to see them....he gets to help Papa with yardwork, put water in their fountain in the yard, play with their dog Maggie, and eat Nona's ice from her cup of sweet tea. (this grosses me out because I HATE sweet tea, but we let him do this every once in a while with Nona and Papa).

The Auburn Equestrian team was having a horse competition, so we went to check out the horses. Beau was not too thrilled at first, but then he warmed up to the horses. He has ridden on a horse 2 times before. The 2nd time, the owner of the horse accidentally clipped Beau's chin when she was putting the helmet on him. He cried and cried and cried! He still rode the horse, named Cody, but whenever we talk about horses or see them, he will tell us the story about how the helmet hurt his chin when he rode Cody. I don't know that he will ever forget it! We did not put a helmet on him this weekend, he just got to be held by his Daddy while they looked at the horses.
