Memories


Jake told me he is having a hard time remembering Uncle Donald. I asked him what he does remember. He said he remembers sitting with him looking at a book and he said” That was the most happiest time ever.”
This time of year during harvest is a hard time as we all remember Uncle Donald. We will all have a special place in our hearts for him forever. We are trying to hold on to the memories we had. I can remember Unlce Donalds big smiles and laughter the most. He loved the kids and liked to tease them, squeexe their knee and tickle them.
During AWANA I had Jake & Rylie in my group at different times and we were talking about John 3:16 and I was explaining eternal life to them. I told them God has a special place in Heaven for them and someday they will get to be with others in Heaven. A smile came to the boys as they said’ Like Uncle Donald.”

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.
