Busy times!

     It has been a long, busy 7 months of no posts here! We now have a 3 year old, a 7 year old and a 15 year old living in this house! The GAMER is still staying in Minnesota; but he turned 14 this spring as well!  Time just keeps on moving along!  For the time being we have been super busy with birthdays, holidays, fundraisers, sports, 4H and show season...It's coming WAY faster than any of us planned! Now it's just about upon us, and we aren't ready...But we will be!  Practice definitely makes perfect! School is going great, for THAT CHILD and the NP CHILD, and the BABY is learning and talking up a storm... We are definitely starting to get more independent and wanting to do more.  The GAMER will be coming down to visit for the summer soon; and I am as nervous as I would be as if I were going on a first blind date! 
     It has been an absolute whirlwind of activity the last 2 weeks, what with horse shows, activities, awards ceremonies and school getting out for summer! I'm so glad that it's finally out and we have the summer with the kids home; so we aren't trying to fit riding/showmanship practices into the couple of hours after school. Let me just tell you, trying to get 4 horses worked between 4 and 7 isn't the easiest thing to get done! And we have a heifer that is to the point where she's going to need to stand tied and be rinsed twice a day...It is a busy season for sure! District horse show is coming up and we haven't looked at the patterns yet! It all gets busier and busier! Good luck this summer to you and yours, God Bless!
