Mother's Day






On Mother's Day,Mark was tired and wanted to rest for the morning, then head to the field to plant. I wanted to make the most of it. We started the morning by going to see Karen, the kids had cards, a pl;an, and sang to her. Jayden played on her saxophone too. Ten it was on to Cornerstone where I was signed up for childcare. Jayden and I helped in the toddler room, kids 12 to 18 months. They were sure cute, and clingy. We already had our bikes loaded in the truck so we headed to the Ames bike path along lake ADA Hayden. My parents joined us for a quick picnic lunch and a bike ride. The sun was shinning, but the wind was strong. The bike path was very nice and a little over 3 miles. It was great, the wind made it a challenge, but what a great way to spend the day. They had a trail through the twisted branches the kids could climb through too. We finished with ice cream from Dairy Queen

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.
