With the end of our Santa Fe rotation fast approaching we are trying to take advantage of all that Santa has to offer. Due to all the fires in June and July many of the mountain areas have been closed, but recently they opened back up! So, we drive up to the Santa Fe ski basin and went on a family hike. We only ended up doing a 2 mile hike due to the littlest hiker’s desire to walk and his little clumsy steps. It was fun to see Santa Fe at a 10,000ft vantage point.

Thanks to a groupon we also went horse back riding…Elliot included! Once we learned the ins and outs of our horse, how to guide them, and the saddle we were free to get on and off as we pleased. We could alternate between dinner, s’mores, horse shoes, calf roping (fake), and horse back riding. Elliot got his own horse and was accompanied by a guide who held on to him the whole time. This was a fun change from our normal activities!
Anxious to ride
Haha. Family photo. Isn’t Jared looking good

That is so cool that E got his own horse! And the picture of him riding is probably the cutest thing I have ever seen. I know I say that a lot on here, but seriously... that is cuteness at it's finest!
So many pretty pictures! I love the ones of Elliot horseback riding - he looks like such a little man. Hard to believe your time in Sante Fe will be over be for long. Time sure flies.
Looks like fun! I especially like the family picture.... ;-)
Ahhh, horsebackriding...I am SO jealous. Elliot looks great on the horse. Glad you are enjoying your last few days in Santa Fe.
Wow!!!! That is awesome that he got his own horse! I can't believe he stayed up there! Giles would have been trying to crawl all over that horse! :) Beautiful pictures.
