Today after church Ashley's neighbor called and wanted to know if we would like to come to the stables and see her horse and would Parker like a little ride. Parker was scared when "Indy" moved an inch and wanted off, but she loved petting him.

This tiny little horse is Sparkle and Parker loved petting her soft hair. She was very friendly.

Watching "Indy" from the fence.

Parker wasn't sure about sitting on this giant of a horse! 17 hands high. She did like patting his neck and feeding him a carrot.

How can you come to NC and not go to the beach at least once! It has been too cold to go to the beach all week, so we decided with the sun shining we would go for a little while today.
Just having fun on Onslo Beach, NC, collecting shells and avoiding getting our feet wet.

This picture is for you Marc. We waited to go to the beach while this sailboat went thru the bridge. It was a beauty.
