Party Time for Luke

We had a birthday party for Luke at the Grand Times Café in Boxholm. Most all of the relatives came for a nice prime rib dinner. Aunt Melinda decorated the cake to match Luke’s party decorations. They were the same plates, invites, and party decorations I had saved from Jake’s first birthday party with farm animals. The cake was a big circle with a cow face on it. I made the tiny duck face cake for Luke to have of his very own. My mom made a birthday banner for Luke also. She is very crafty. During cake time, it took a long time for Luke to touch the cake. He had a lot of help with trying it out. He is very unsure of textures and I can’t get him to eat anything that is not pureed. It was a nice little party to celebrate Luke. He is a true gift of God. For his birthday present, we had all the Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, and family go in on one big present. We got a little tykes clubhouse playhouse. We know he will enjoy it over the years as he grows and brother and sister can enjoy it too.

Volleyball

Jake went with Karen after school and to the field. My mom, Luke and I went to Jayden’s Volleyball game in Coon Rapids. They played 4 games all losses. They were not having a good serving night and that really hurt them. Still enjoy watching them learn.

Treasures

In the morning we took 3 of our 4 cats to the vet for shots. The 4 th cat decided to wander this morning missing his appointment. On our way out, we passed a rummage sale and stopped. We got some major treasures for next to nothing. The church ladies were so fascinated with Jacob's interest in old radios and televisions. They just adored him and marked the prices way down and gave him some for free. We loaded up on kids books, got some board games, and a few other treasures. Jake ended up with a mini television , an old radio and Polaroid camera. After lunch the boys went straight to the field. My friend Carolyn and her daughter Tabby came to ride horses. What started out to be a chilly day 45, turned out nice and sunny. We had coats on, but it was a great day to ride. We rode through our hay patch and along the waterway near the highway. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Dayton Fun Show

It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
