Anthony is happy!

Anthony's long board has arrived!!! He has been borrowing our neighbor Tim's long board and going to school and back on it. He ordered one for himself. He's been saving on gas to and from school so can't complain about that! He was even checking the hourly weather to make sure his box wasn't out in the rain too long on the day it was due to arrive!

Bout time!

My mom got Jordan a potato bag so he can grow his own potatoes since David won't allow us to have a garden in the back yard saying there is no space for it. There really isn't and I don't much enjoy gardening. I have tried to like it, and do it. I just don't.

Pouring in the dirt, there are our potatoes on the ground

Here we are...ready to grow potatoes. The directions say to wait until the sprouts are 4" above the dirt and pour a few inches more dirt in. So...we'll wait :-)

The kids at Foxhollow Farms

the Foxhollow grounds

The stable, there were several horses and a horse named Pheonix that was being rehabilitated from an abusive previous owner.

the potting shed

the barn with the stables inside and the hay loft where Cooper was swinging on the rope swing above.

The house, nestled into the mountain with the stream right behind it. It was beautiful.

Layne is 4!

Layne had a princess birthday party at the Foxhollow Farms off of Issaquah Hobart road. The kids rode horses and had hot dogs and cake. There was lots for them to do.

Cooper

This little mini pony really liked the kids shoelaces, pockets, sleeves, anything. He just followed them around nibbling...

Weight Watcher 5K

The Carlsen family and I did a 5K put on by our Weight Watcher Center (Tanya reached a 20 pound loss this week - so shout out to her!!!) We wogged it, and the weather was perfect!

Hmmm.....

We upgraded Lucy May to her bigger crate and she is so much happier. I don't have to shove her in there like she's being arrested. She hated the tiny one. She is getting so big!

Hmmmm....the boy fits too.
