Jacob


 This summer Jacob is working on his math facts and handwriting. He spends his free time playing with the new kittens. He will sit them in his lap and watch a show or carry them around. I allow them small visits in the house.
He still likes his “Diary of a Wimpy kid” book series and recently discovered "Big Nate" books. He likes the books with the comic style pictures in them. He has read the series of Wimpy kid books over and over. Most of the time he plays very well with Luke. They like to play little tractors in the basement and set up a farm from wall to wall. They also like to play outside in the dirt. I think he has realized this summer it is more fun to play with Luke than by himself. The three kids will often play together and keep each other entertained. They have quite the imagination. Sometimes I eaves drop and hear them talking about their wife and sons as they play.

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.
