with them since their daughter is too old to use it. It didn't look this good when we got
it. Origonally, it was painted white, with hand painted flowers and a painted on mane. Of
course, my dear husband forgot to take a "before" photo again so you aren't able to see the transformation. He seems to work on these sort of projects when I'm out of town and can't remind him to take pictures before he starts working on them. So I guess you'll have to imagine in your head what it looked like before. He took it all apart then repainted and stained it. Amazing what a little paint and stain can do. He also made a padded leather seat and then together we made the mane and tail out of thick yarn. This was one of Addi's Christmas presents but since we went home for Christmas it wasn't in any of our pictures. So I thought I would post it so my family could see it. I thought that it turned out great and Addi really loves it. She can get it rocking pretty hard, even to the point that it looks like it is going to tip over. While she rocks she repeats over and over "rockie, rockie."

You guys are so creative. I love the rocking horse. It looks great! I am sure Addi loves it too:) We love watching all of her funny facial expressions at church.
