Lexington, KY.

How can anyone visit the state of Kentucky, with out visiting the Kentucky Horse Park!!  We actually stayed at the campground too, but that will come in a review on a different post. :)


Oh, the girls and Parker were SO thrilled to see all the horses!  They are just gorgeous.


I thought Hannah was going to bust, she was so happy. :)


I am thankful for Hannah's strength in times like these.  Last year, she was bitten by a horse, as she tried to feed him, and it ripped off her finger nail and left a pretty nasty gash.  She ended up with about 8 stitches, and a few months of daily 'doctoring.'  Lo and behold, you can't even tell she was bit.  She has no scar or emotional scars from the incident.  Horses are still her favorite animal.  :)


The museum and park had many different sections that we were able to participate.  Here, they are showing the beautiful champions.


Cigar, the dark brown horse had quite the personality.  :)


They also showed many talented riders and the breeds.


This one had ice-blue eyes.  So pretty.


I love it when they train the horses to do tricks!


The 'Bridle Room'



How many hands tall are you?


 During the Groom and Shine, the girls and Parker were smiling from ear to ear. :)  I literally had to coax them to leave.  They wanted to brush the horse, Sneaky, from head to toe.  Unfortunately, we did not have that much time!  HA!


In the Kids' Barn, they had these great toy horses for the kids to play.
 (I think he may have some Type A personality in him)  :)




We really enjoyed the Kentucky Horse Park!

Blessings,
Steph
