The week started with a 50 degree
day. I was so excited to get outside and enjoy it. . The wind was
blowing so to me it was not a nice 50 degree day, I was cold the whole time I
was out. I was anticipating warm and didn’t have a heavy enough coat. We had a new little horse the neighbors were
letting us try out. Jake got to ride her for the first time today. Luke rode her
on Saturday. I think he likes her and he got along well with her. She is little
and cute, but has her own little attitude too. She has separation anxiety and
gets real nervous when alone.. We had a vet check and she didn’t pass with
flying colors, but she is a teenager (10-15), could gain quite a bit of weight,
and will need some work, but all in all I think she will be a fit. Jayden rode
every day this week except for the weekend. I did some riding too. Friday night
the kids spent the night with my parents. My high school was having the very
last basketball game and alumni recognition. We had plans, so Jayden took my place
as a mini me and went with Grandma. During their stay Luke, Grandma and Grandpa
built a John Deere harvestor Valentine box. Now that is one of a kind and I bet
there isn’t another one anywhere like it. He has such a crafty Grandma and
clever Grandpa. It turned out really cute. Mark and I went out on a friends date. Mark
went to see a war movie with Dan, while Angelia and I went to a wine and canvas
painting class. We enjoyed painting and visiting. I thought the painting was
fun and relaxing and I hope to do it again. Throughout the week, we had pretty
nice weather getting all the way up to 50. By Friday it dropped to upper 30 and
by Saturday the snow storm ……. The snow started in the evening with some nice
pretty white flakes. By morning we were in some deep snow. Out the windows it
looked like a winter wonderland. Heavy amounts of snow stuck to tree limbs and
drifts and piles were in the yard. We were fortunate not to lose power. It did
flicker and go out a few times but only for a few seconds. We got around 8 to
10 inches when it was all over. The snow stuck around for a long time.
