TMRA Fundraiser


3/15/16  The last 3 days have been very nice days in the 60’s. it is starting to feel a little more like spring all the time. Sunday was rough on all of us with the time change. We had to be up and at church extra early for hospitality and today we left at 8:30Am which was like 7:30Am from what we were used to. We were dragging a bit. Then after church we spent our day outside. I cleaned some horse blankets and the shop area. I went until I collapsed in bed to sleep. Monday we had to be in Fort Dodge for a fundraiser. Jayden’s TMRA rodeo group was hosting a fundraiser at Pizza Ranch. The kids bus tables for 4 hours and get 7% of all sales, plus donations. Luke and I went to get his hair cut and some groceries along with eating. Grandma and Grandpa W and Wade's family went over for dinner too. Today was nice until around 2:00 we got some strong wind and rain. The farrier came and put shoes on our 4 horses. It is so expensive $150 for a set of 4 shoes per horse every 6 to 8 weeks. Add that up!



On another weekend, Jayden attended a Youth Rodeo fundraiser. Good times with good friends.

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.
