Taking a break tonight....

Yep were gonna take a break from the barn tonight...really need to get some online work done.

This rain is sure nice....bout time.....my gardens needed it bad. I've gotten 4 cucumbers, a bunch of green beans and one tomato so far.....many more of all on the way. I can't wait until canning season. I am a bit upset though....I have no idea how I did this, but I completely missed strawberry picking! It's over now! Oh well, I guess there's always next year.....I've been super busy and super broke this year anyways. I'm actually surprised at how prepared we are for fair.

Well it will be back to the grindstone tomorrow - back to the barn every night until fair which starts in less then two weeks....eeeeekkkkkkkkkk.....hehe

Well that's all for now folks!

Another good night riding...

Lindsay did very well once again......Chelsea rode a little while tonight too.....not too long, her legs were hurting from training this morning (volleyball)....I rode a while too...it felt great to be on him again....so much stress in my life lately, it's nice to know I have him as my out. Just smelling him seems to make everything all better!

4-H Potluck Meeting...Yum yum

It was fun! Girls didn't want to swim, Chelsea had been swimming all day already and Lindsay thought it was too cold to swim.

I got myself signed up to yet another responsibility at fair....lol.....oh well it's a fun one......me and three others are running the 'fun show' on Sunday of fair. Should be good, we even get to make our own show bill for it. Woohoo...

Most everything else as far as showing Danny is taken care of now....I ordered the shavings for the stall for the week....paid for everything that needed to be paid for....girls are signed up for the dipper and barn duty. Now we pretty much just need to get all their pictures taken care of and mounted. Yeahhhhhhhhhh most of the stress can now go away regarding fair! hehe....oh the things I get myself into!

Bye for now!

Lindsay practicing for fair...

She did really good today....scared the life out of me and caused me to have even more grey hair because she was trotting with Danny and he decided he was just going to keep going and go even faster...she almost fell off.....but she did really good. I am very proud of her for not panicing and bringing him back under control.

Danny and Lindsay in their PJ's for fair...

Aren't they just the cutest...

This is the picture that will be on the stall door at fair this year! There is a theme and that's why they are both in their PJ's....it's just a secret. As usual the rest of the pictures are in the album...

Fireworks...

They were pretty good this year. Went on for about 45 mins. The girls and I walked down to the park and back (about 12 blocks). Tons of people down there at the carnival area. Wow...fireworks bring out all the creepy ones. Weather was great for it though.

Off to the barn for the day...tons of 4-H preparations to do with Danny and gonna try to get a little riding in too.
