Friday Fun at the Fair

 Friday at the fair. We Watched the cattle show and decided to just spend the whole day and go home For the night to sleep. Miday Alex and Makenna Spillman came to the fair to hang out with the kids. Jake having his own cell phone gave them freedom to raom the fair. They had a blast. From giant blow up slides to water wars, they had fun. Water wars involved launching water balloons and trying to catch them.
Jayden and Makenna wandered and found friends and took care of the horses. In the mean time, Luke walked around with Peepaw and enjoyed his very own foot long corn dog.That kid loves corn dogs! He found "Billy Bob" and his redneckmobile. He made Luke an interesting balloon hat. Oh the fun things you can do at the fair. It was around 8PM when we all left the fair and took the Spillman’s 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.
