Ever since Leah started Riding Therapy, she has been completely in love with horses. Even her therapist says she has an uncanny interest and love of horses, more than most children she sees. So it was only natural that this would become the theme for her Christmas and her sixth birthday which she celebrates today!

She woke up to a big bouquet of balloons on the kitchen table. She hasn't let go of a balloon since!

Sharing with a sister |
Several months ago when we were discussing Christmas, Patty mentioned that her daughter {also a bit horse crazy!} had these cute horse lights. I knew Leah would love them, they are so cute hanging above her bed and she will be thrilled tonight when she goes to sleep.

My parents went with the horse theme for Christmas for the girls and Levi. My dad made this stable to hold all the little horses.
|
Barn |
There are doors to get in both sides, and windows large enough to see what the horses are up to.

Front of Barn |
The top has some plexiglass so that girls can see inside the stable as well. Didn't he do an awesome job? I have even seen the big boys playing with the barn, horses, and truck and trailer ;)
And, what horse crazy girl would be complete without her very own pair of
red cowboy boots!!

We have seen tremendous growth in Leah this past year, her speech has improved so much, we are so proud of her hard work. We are so thankful for her, she always keeps life interesting that's for sure.
Happy 6th Birthday Leah!
