The day the little girl in hat dream came true! :)

The day finally arrived! The little girl in the pink hat was about to have her wildest dreams come true. She was about to come face-to-face with a real live horse! Anticipation built and the excitement was almost too much to bear as she waited and waited to leave. ;) Everyone wore something “cowboyish” for the occasion[yes, even I put on a plaid shirt to show my appreciation for cow-people ;], we loaded ourselves up the big family bus, and we were off. Of course, a coffee stop was necessary because y’all know you can’t see a horse without a cup of coffee[or so I told her. ;] Finally and truly the little girl in the pink hat saw the horse and then touched the horse and then SAT ON THE HORSE! :) The day far surpassed the little girl’s expectations and she will never forget the day she came face-to-face with “Gypsy” the Pinto horse. ;) Our trip to the Annual Western Showcase in pictures!

“It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:
To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound. For thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
O Lord, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.”
Psalm 92:1-5
