One of the "team building" activities that we did last week was to go horseback riding. Yup. You read that right. I went horseback riding!



The only bad things that happened...the horses got a little spooked when we came across another group of riders and horses. It was then that one of the girls got kicked by one of the horses...but she was kicked in the boot, so it hurt, but not too much.
Now, for those of you who know me...well, you know that I'm not only scared of heights, but I'm also not exactly interested in horseback riding. My sister, on the other hand, is completely into horses. Me? Not so much. So, just the fact that I agreed to go is amazing. Then, there is the fact that I actually got on that horse thing!
The ranch we were at, required us to wear boots, and helmets. So, by the time we all got suited up, we were looking kind of like a bunch of dweebs...



But, we all had a good time on the trails...

Then, when I was getting off the horse, I landed on my foot wrong, and twisted my ankle bad. It swelled up, and was looking pretty bad on Thursday and Friday.
But, by Saturday, the swelling had gone down, and I'm able to hobble around pretty good now. It's still a wonderful shade of blue though...
At least I can cross Horseback riding off of my bucket list now.
