Happy Birthday To Luke


 Today Luke turned 6 years old. My baby is growing up. The youngest of the bunch makes you feel sad. 6 seems so big, not a little guy, not a toddler, but a growing boy. It was great for him because he had a late start school day. That gave him time to open gifts and play awhile. He got a little tractor size John Deere Chopper. I think this made the list after Jake got a New Holland one for Christmas. He also got a nerf bow and arrow set and a farm coat. We watched a few baby Luke videos before he went off to school. After school we made a little cake for Luke, sang and blew out candles. Po Po stopped by and the boys ended up spending the night with him when they heard Rylie was staying. It has been so long since they have spent time with Rylie. It isn’t that we haven’t tried. The boys think so highly of him and want so badly to spend time with him.
The weather has been all over the place. Sunday was up to almost 50 then dropped into the negatives. The wind has been so strong and blustery it often sounds like a hurricane outside. On this day of Luke's birthday, it was so cold the schools had late start and it has been lingering in the negatives. It has not been a fun winter for the  kids. No snow forts or snowmen, no romping in the snow, it is just no fun.

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.
