Cowgirl

Aspen and I went down to the Summercamp last weekend to help gather cows off the mountain. Aspen has ridden a fair amount at Grandpa Lambert's house and a few times at the ranch and other places, but this is the first time she has ridden, by herself in the mountains. Obviously ridding in the mountains with all the uphill, downhill, side hill, oak brush, cedar trees, fences, etc. is quite different. Aspen did AWESOME! She rode all over the ranch for nearly 2 days. She help gather the cows and never fell off once! :)

After spending 7+ hours in the saddle on Saturday, and another 4 Sunday morning - Aspen and I are both a little sore. But we had lots of fun and can't wait to do it again. (Thanks Holly for letting us go!)

Aspen's Shirt got snagged on some Oak Brush. Next time Daddy will get her a better shirt to wear.

Aspen found an Elk Shed.

After talking with Grandma Becky about when she was a little girl - Aspen had her heart set on riding bare back.
