Jayden

There is a music teacher that recently moved to Dayton and Jayden is starting to take vocal lessons. She seems very good and I think Jayden will really learn a lot and will enjoy it. She lives a block from the Dayton school, so it will be handy. Jayden is also staying afterschool for practice with her school music teacher to audition for OPUS. Claire is also auditioning.
Jayden informed me that her teacher informed three girls in private including Jayden and Claire, that they scored extremely high on their reading tests. The scored that of a twelfth grader, therefore they will be challenged with much harder spelling words than the other kids. That is pretty impressive!
Jayden was also chosen by her class to be on the student council. She had to give her own speech and everything. She is on the student council with her two 4th grade cousins Jaynie and Maggie. The cousins rule the school!

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.
