Riding Wheeler, the Mule, with Uncle Jon!

After we had dinner at Allyson's we all went outside in the beautiful spring weather to show James and Carli and their kids Jon and Allyson's farm. The kids were having a blast running around in the pasture and they all decided that they wanted to ride Wheeler, one of Uncle Jon's mules. My kids are usually very intimidated by large animals, but they all really wanted a ride on Wheeler, even Brenden, who usually hates that sort of thing. Uncle Jon took each of them on a ride around the pasture. It was really fun. As you can see, even Brenden really enjoyed it. He was really brave. I was so proud of him!

Kate rode with Brenden for a minute and decided that she wanted to ride by herself. We put her on alone for just a second because as soon as Wheeler moved it jerked her a bit and scared her. She got off really quickly after that.

Taylor and Josie had a great time riding a mule for the first time.
