We have had crazy weather and it takes some getting used to. Over the last three weeks we have gone from freezing temperatures and over a foot of snow, to a week on; 23c and boiling hot, back down to waking up to snow again this morning! It's pretty amazing and has leant itself to some of the most picturesque hikes you can imagine.
The family have been busy with our lives and I have been spending more time with RuffCut and enjoying my riding lessons thoroughly. The past few weeks I have been riding a lovely big pony, he is well schooled and sharp off your leg and knows flying changes and how to work on the bit. He has been great for me as we have been working on sitting trot and improving my position and as he has small paces he is a great starting point.
Sadly, this week we also heard that Shaunagh, Ethans previous school teacher/ head of school lost her battle against cancer. She changed the path of Ethans Schooling and was probably one of the most incredible people I will ever have the honor to meet. We still have notes and gifts around the house from Shaunagh, and will always treasure them.
