25 Reunion

I am starting to feel old, celebrating my 25th class reunion. It doesn't seem possible that it has been that long. Jessica and Dan came up with this years reunion plans. We met in Des Moines at a hotel where a few stayed. We had a few drinks and appetizers while visiting. 8 classmates attended:Dusty, Matt & Dan, Jessica, Jolene, Kyle, Abby and I.  Mark was with me, some of us had our spouses, some did not. Next we went on to an Iowa Cubs baseball game. Mindy and Sara joined us. It was a great night to be at a game, plenty warm, but not bad. It was fun to catch up with my classmates, and yet have something to watch and entertain us. Sure beats a potluck any day!! Class of 1993, we were a pretty close bunch, it felt like getting together with relatives. I think everyone that showed up for our reunion was in school with me from pre-school all the way through. Most of us were close friends through the years too, it comes with being in a small school.

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.
