Cousin Rylie

 Cousin Rylie has had quite a senior year. He injured his kidney in wrestling as a freshmen and the doctor advised him not to participate in contact sports. He decided his senior year he wanted to be part of football and wrestling. He was voted homecoming king. He went out for football and I went to 3 of his home football games before they went on to state. He was not on the starting string, but he did get some playing time and tackles as a safety. Rylie is tall, over 6 ft 4, has a nice smile, is kind and on the shy side. He keeps a 4.0 GPA, is not arrogant and hasn't had a girlfriend. He's just a good 'ol farm boy. I have noticed over the last couple years, he has enjoyed our family and the boys more. He will hang out with Jake and sometimes just him and Luke. He will ski, hunt, and trap with Luke. He has been super busy this year with sports and workouts that he doesn't get much free time. If he doesn't have free time, his dad puts him to work. There have been many plans made with our boys that got broken because his dad needed him to work. It makes me kind of sad that Rylie doesn't get to have fun and enjoy hobbies like our kids. Rylie is a good role model, a nice hard working kind young man. He is a great young man and I know he will go far. I am thankful for him and the friendship he has with my boys.

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.
