Jingle bells

Christmas day we had a chance to get to ride in a very festive horse drawn carriage.  The horses were so beautiful and between the nice cool weather, white horses and carriage it made it definitely feel like Christmas.  To top it off the horses had large jingle bells attached to their harnesses that jingled the whole ride.


The kids loved getting a chance to pet the horses...





We also got to check out some of the older carriages that this nice couple has as well...



Taking turns riding you would climb up into the carriage and bundle up in the blankets that had been provided.  Snuggling up with our little family the kids all bundled in their jackets and Hudson snoozing away. Singing carols as we went along our way, enjoying the cool weather and the grins on the kids faces.  The clicking of the horses hooves and sounds of bells jingling as we rode.

It gave me just an idea of what it would be like to ride in an actual sleigh and imagine if you were riding through the snow.  Add that to my bucket list :) :)
