Fall Ride




Luke is still under the weather and wants nothing but to sit with mama. After school, Karen came to watch the boys so Jayden and I could ride the horses. I know the warm days are numbered and when we aren't in the field, I need to take advantage of it. It was only 60, and by the time we rode the sun was going down and our hands froze. Jayden rode her pony and I rode Joe. We took them around a bean field at a nice walk. It is nice to have that one on one time with Jayden too. She always has so much she wants to tell me about her day in the midst of the chaos of the boys at home.


In September Jake was ready to wear his winter hat. He didn't care if it was 70 degrees, he still wanted to wear it. Finally in October it was chilly enough he could wear it. He loves his hat with the ear flaps and wears it every day.


Luke has his daily tv time, he watched a Little Einstein show and sits in his "Lazy Boy". He loves his chair so much, I made a John Deere cover for it.

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.
