Mark's 42nd Birthday

12/7/15 Kids decorated the house and we made a birthday cake with cattle and feed wagon and celebrated Mark's 42nd birthday. In the evening we went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse. With our new Tahoe, we got 8 tickets to an ISU basketball game. I thought that would be a blast and a fun way to celebrate Mark's birthday. Mark had other plans and did not have any interest in going to a basketball game. Sadly, he passed them all on. At least the kids, his parents, and a few cousins got to enjoy them. Mark managed to pay for everyone's supper too. Orrie, Karen, Allie, Torrie, her boyfreind, Jaynie, Rylie, and my kids all went. After eating a nice meal, Po took the rest to the game. Po always takes advantage of a freebie and got all its worth by making trips into the VIP room for food. He made sure everyone got free food even though they all just ate.

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.
