The Kid From Snowy River


Carter is pretty much obsessed with horses, and I don't use the term lightly. Like, 90% of his toys are horses, and he can pretty much imitate a horses lope and whinny perfectly. It doesn't help that Grandma and Grandpa Robinson have horses, so everytime we go and visit it further cements and deepens the obsession. So naturally he loves the movie "The Man From Snowy River," which I let him watch yesterday. Side note: on the climax part he likes to run around the couch with his stick horse and make horse noises, but he only does it when that music is playing. "Da da da da, dum dum dum, do di." So this morning we had a little "Jim Craig and Jessica Harrison" moment. After breakfast Carter comes lumbering in on his stick horse with Hannah perched on the front like his little damsel in distress. It was so hilarious, that I probably laughed for 2 minutes straight. And they just kept wandering around the kitchen for probably 20 minutes, Carter holding the reigns and Hannah in front, until finally I made them coral the horse and go take a bath. Another brilliant Carter moment, immortalized.
