This is a VERY happy boy. Steven loves horses, but he is very allergic to them. He takes allergy medications, but he is always in hives by the time we are done. So, for an activity this Saturday we went over to the ranch with Liz and Tim. We couldn't have asked for a better time, plus it started to snow so hard while we were there! Here are a few pics of the day...
This is Tim with Bravo. I love how comfortable Tim is with the horses. This picture in particular is amazing to me because you can see Tim talking to Bravo, on a side note it's also very fun to hear the things that Tim says to the horses..
Cooper (The horse)
This picture is awesome. In particular I enjoy the feet. Technically if he had stirrups on, that's exactly how his feet should be. It just looks silly without them there.
This is Steven attemping the "leg up" mount that you often see in movies. The first time he hurt his back, and the second time he made it! Later in the day he tried to hop on from an incline and went up and over and off the other side...you guys missed out!
This was one of my favorite pictures of the day.

How was he able to be around the horses this time without breaking into hives? Has he just not taken the medication before and that's why he was never around horses. . . I'm confused. I have to say, I do feel like I missed out. I would have loved to see him go up and over off the other side. Sounds like good times had by all.
He takes his medication beforehand, and is able to be around but after about an hour he starts to have his hive problems. If he can shower and change his clothes relatively soon he does okay. So he did break out in hives, just after. It actually even happens if he goes to rodeos or anything...not just touching them.
