"Best Birthday Ever!!"

Well it's official, Ashleigh had "The Best Birthday Ever!!" this year.

Yesterday we had all the family over for a night of games (thanks to Georgia), food and CAKE!!!

And of course OPENING PRESENTS ......

And then today, the ultimate (at least for Ashleigh and the other kids) - HORSE RIDING!!!

Ashleigh was so excited we got to go horse riding today. The rain held off all day for us which was great.

Olivia preferred not to be in the photo.

Luckily I got to lead Lauren on her shetland pony "Snowy" - he was easy to manage.

Ashleigh rode "Mikey". She was sooooo excited. She nearly peed her pants with excitement!!"

Georgia wasn't too sure at first but by the end of it she didn't want to get off!

Olivia was a complete natural!

Taylor was very comfortable on her horse!

I didn't get a photo of Harrison but he seemed to really enjoy himself too!!

As for me, I'm NOT a horse person so I preferred to go via two legs and not four!

As you can see, all the adults took the kids for an hour long horse ride through the bush.

The kids had fun while the adults got a great workout!!!

So another birthday for Ash is over and although she didn't get her NINTENDO DS, the horses were a great substitute!!
