February

We had Karen and Orrie over for dinner for their anniversary.

Here is a nice winter photo of the semi as the snow is falling.

2/26/24 we broke a record for the warmest day in February.
Wow, what a day for February! We hit 79 degrees and it was lovely. We had some wind, but the sun and warmth was great. We broke a record for the nice temperatures. A typical February in Iowa is likely to be in the teens and twenties. Today was like an Iowa June day. It isn't going to last long, we are going to drop into the single digits overnight and snow is headed in. I tried to soak in the day by opening all the doors to the shop, garage, and arena and let the warm air blow in. I got Bucky and Joker out and groomed them and rode Joker. What a great day! In Texas, Jayden took Colt out for a stroller ride on a Texas 90 something day!


Titus came and spent the day. He is always so sick. His nose ran and he coughed a lot. He gets his tonsils out soon! He has a favorite book that we look at and read over and over together whenever he comes to the house. I always make sure we get outside to enjoy the fresh air I dont think he gets outside much. He isn't saying many words, although he does growl at animal pictures and says jibberish words. .  Sometimes with all jhis colds and ear infections, I wonder if I wonder if he can hear very well. 


This month we got the new Hagie sprayer and opened it up in the shop. It fits with just a few feet to spare!

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.
