Good-bye Florida




Our flight was 12:30 out of Orland, through Memphis, and in Iowa at 4:30. Back to home, back to reality, brrr 22 degrees. We couldn’t get home fast enough. Jacob was telling me to hurry up as he wanted to sit with Luke. When we walked into our house, Luke spotted us and began to squeal and scream with excitement. He ran as fast as he could to us with arms open. He giggled and squealed as he hugged each person with such happiness. It was the sweetest thing ever. We missed him so much. We brought him back a giant Mickey Mouse as part souvenir, part birthday present. He was thrilled with it and hugged it and carried it all over. He has been able to say Mickey Mouse so well for some time. He says it so cute. He also got his own little chair for his birthday so we could do away with the baby bouncy seat. He sits in his little chair with his Mickey Mouse and watches his shows now. He is like a little man in his easy chair. Everyone loves a vacation, but it's always great to be home.

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.
