Dayton Horse Show

Today was the first horse fun show at the Dayton wranglers. The sun was shinning which put me in such a good mood. I think I smiled all day just for the great sunshine alone. It has been so long since we have had a full day of sun. It was also nice to have the new horse trailer. We really enjoyed it, the boys the most. My mom came down and helped with the kids. They hung out and played in the trailer with a couple extra kids that wanted to check out the trailer too. We only took Jessie in hopes that she would behave better alone and that she did. She acted great all day. Jayden rode her with such confidence. She was riding all over and loping with ease. She took first place in western pleasure and second in walk trot. She did so good, I was so happy for her and she needed that boost. The pleasure class was a good sized class and a tough class to do well in. She also did barrels and poles. Neither one Jessie has done much of and we are going slow and working with her. I also did pleasure(2nd place), barrels, and poles on her. Jacob rode Jessie all around in the parking lot with her by himself with me tagging along. Luke was thrilled to ride in front of his sissy through the parking lot too. He also got to run a foot race for the pop race. It was a fun day and I was tired when we got 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.
