Super Sweet


Jacob typically is grumpy and can have a very sour attitude when he gets home from school each day. It doesn't take much to get him in a bad mood. Today out of the blue he turned sweet. He came home did his homework, played nice with Luke, and started cleaning the house, and was full of smiles. He went through each room of the house tidying up. This never happens. He was so sweet when asked to do anything and wanted to help set the table. He would talk in a very sweet voice and say "yes Moomy and I love you mommy." We praised him and praised him and told him how much we all love it when he is like this and how everyone in our family is much happier when he is happy. The funniest part, as we sat down to eat, he ran through the house shutting off every light except one over the dinner table and proudly said,"Mom, I am saving electricity." He also said a nice long prayer for our meal. Gotta love 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.
