All I want for Christmas....

When Nick and I were little, we had this wooden horse hanging in the basement that we used to ride on. Well, my parents recently found it in their garage, and gave it to us to hang in our basement for Ellie.

Ellie saw it, and immediately told Santa all she wanted for Christmas was a rocking horse. So a week before Christmas, Tom and my Dad got the horse hung in the basement.

The immediate thoughts of a concerned Papa? She needs some mats or something underneatch it in case she falls, plus she should wear a helmet. Where were these thoughts when my brother and I were kids? We were left to our own devices to swing as high as we wanted, and hit whatever we wanted. Things are different for the grandkids I guess :)

Thanks Uncle Nick for letting us borrow the horse for the time being. It is a huge hit!
