Ethan's Cowboy Party

Ethan absolutely loved his birthday party! He rode a pony the entire time they were there. The only time he got off was to lead the pony by the reigns. I have never seen him so happy!








We had pictures setting out of Ethan's grandparents on ponies when they were little. We noticed my mom's horse looked a little funny, but we figured there were slim pickings for horses in the valley. Later we found out the horse was stuffed! No wonder it looked so pathetic and scrawny!















I think Austin and Madison are in love.


I have the best father-in-law ever! He was such a great helper and he even scooped up horse poop!







Austin loved the ponies too and he did not get off one the entire party! Eric's mom brought the boots Eric wore when he was a toddler and Austin wore them at the party. They are so cute!









Ethan was very sad to see the ponies go. He gave them a hug and waved bye. The only thing that kept him from getting upset was the thought of birthday cake!









We had a great time at the party! Good food, family, friends and ponies! Who could ask for anything more?

  3. Wow! The pictures turned out great. I love the one of Austin in the hat, sitting at the counter. He looks like a cowboy in a John Wayne movie. Sitting at the bar, about to order a tall cold one : ) I'm soooo sorry we missed it.
