mounted patrol unit

a few weeks back matson and i joined several other moms and kids from his preschool on a field trip to see the police horses. we did this last year and matson was very timid about actually feeding the horses, but this year he was a couragous big boy!

i'm so glad my friend, katie, would help the kids feed the horses. call me girly, but i don't like all that horse slobber on my hands! ick! besides, it's not good for the camera. 

can't really tell that's matson buddy, but i promise it is.

here's our preschool gang.

it always amazes me just how big these horses actually are. 

this is matson's buddy charlie from his class.

did you know horses like peppermints?
