Shut up woman, get on my horse

We found a place to ride horses today. We were out on the trails for two hours, and my butt is feelin it now. It was so much fun though. My horse was Trixie, Micah's was Magic, Emily's was Cowboy. Uncle Mike's was Reno. The guide was only with us for a little bit, and almost as soon as he turned around and left, Emily's horse froze in place and wouldn't move at all. It was pretty funny...but also frustrating because we had to go all the way back to the stable since the horse didn't want to move forward. We ended up going out again and finishing the trail all together with another group of horseback riders. A bunch of little kids. Anyway the scenery was desert-like, very sandy and dusty and dry, lots of lizards running here and there. We were all tan afterword. From the dust that clung to our sweat. My horse kept bucking her back legs up in the air, nearly throwing me off. I managed to stay on some how, and the guide shouted, "NOW you're riding!" Haha geez. Anyway my uncle took us to the mall later in the day, which was huge and amazing. Tonight we all grilled pizza for dinner together. I know it sounds weird but believe me, it was delicious. Then we had my new favorite dessert--Blackberry Cabernet sorbet with fresh watermelon slices. Mmmmm. Anyway, DISNEYLAND TOMORROW!
