You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

Grandma Hatch's Horse Party

HORSE PARTY
Monday was the big Hatch Horse Party.  The kids had a blast.  They all got a chance to ride on a horse and then we all sat and played with the cool dogs for an hour.  It was fun to watch the kids play with John again, it's been forever!  He's so nice to entertain them.  Even Jack was taking advantage of his height and got him to lift him up to shoot hoops for a really long time- I hope John's back is better than mine.  Everyone loved mom's Mexican Fried Ice Cream. It was fun to spend time with the Hatches.  I loved seeing Noah and Charlie together again and Luke's stories about Alvin and Savannah were fun too :).  They all got along so well!  I really want to try to keep them all in touch better now that they've had the reminder of who they all are.  We need to be better at that.  With Beth's family too.  And the Idaho Mayneses.  Anyway.  Good times!  5-2-16  Here's what everyone else had to say about it :)

"We went to Grandma's house, rode the horses, and I was the first one to ride it because the horse picked me and then I got to go around five times because he didn't know how long to make the rides.  And then I had to leave to do my Kaysville Idol audition.  After my tryout, Dad took me to Fresh Market and I got HiChews and I was eating them and found out I had a loose tooth and it was hurting most of the time so I couldn't eat any of the food.  And Heidi was there and John and Brent and Sarah and Charlie and Alvin and Savannah. It was really fun and there was a giant dog."


"So we went to Grandma's house and then we went and rode those really awesome horses.  And we got to ride them and I went on second.  Then we rode around a couple of times.  And then after we were done, I got off the horse and my whole body was covered in horse hair.  Then after we rode the horses we went over to Grandma and Simon's house and I went with John and Heidi to Costco to get some food that they forgot to get.  And then we came back.  And we ate the food and played around outside and talked.  And then there was this really really good dessert there.  And it was SO delicious and it was great.  Then after that we all went inside because it was getting kind of freezing and we got to just kind of talk in there and eat more food.  And then I got a pack of gum and I lost it in the car and then we went home.  And it was lots of fun because we got to see Brent and Sarah and their family."

"I thought it was interesting because that horse was like my 8th time being on a horse.  So I wasn't scared even though they told me it would be a little scary on that horse, but it wasn't. It was fun to see my cousins that I didn't even see for a very long time."









"I riding a horse! I ride the white one."



"We went down to Grandma's neighbor's house and they had horses, so they let us ride them.  And there was this huge dog and this other tiny dog that liked me a lot.  And then the horse, named Georgia, I rode on her and she was trying to speed up cause I was probably pushing her.  Then when we got off I played with Savannah and Jack and then we went back to Grandma's house and there was a whole bunch of snack food and there was a bag of cheese puffs and I took a whole bunch of cheese puffs cause they were so good.  And then we went outside and shot hoops with Alvin and CHarlie and them.  And then after there was donuts and I got donuts on my way back and then we were talking and then I had to go and I was shooting hoops.  It was fun to play with Alvin, Charlie and Savannah and Brent and Sarah."





"I thought it was really fun cause I got to ride on the biggest horse and I got to spend time with my cousins that I only get to see like once every two years.  I also thought it was fun because that was my first time riding on that big of a horse.  I also thought it was fun because I felt the Spriit and I was spending time wiht my family.  And there was food!"


"It was really fun."

Sorry I've spammed your blog with so many comments ha ha! I finally made it to the horse pictures. I could have sworn I saved them but apparently I can't find them so I got back on to save them. Here they are and now I'm going to add some of them to my blog!
