Encouraging Thoughts

May. 15, 2009 - Hello!

Hi everyone,
I am sorry that I neglected you guys so shamefully. So many things have happened since I have written last. First, it has gotten very warm out. It is so nice to be outside! I just love spring. It is my favorite season, there are so many beginnings during this time of the year! Next our little bantam chicken, Ashley, is sitting on 9 eggs! We are hoping that we will be able to get some chicks out of this sitting!

Ashley, May 15, 2009
Then, my sisters have started Drill Team!!! (Drill Team is a team of horses and riders that do different drills like wheels and circles and other cool stuff) They have a lot of fun! It is a little hard to just stand by and watch though, for just a couple years ago I was riding in the team. I had so much fun riding in the parade, performing with the team before the rodeo and at the fair! I was in it for two years but this year I can't do it because I won't have time, for camp starts in little over four weeks!
Hannah, Drill Team, May 14 2009
Here is Hannah on Jet. Jet isn't behaving very well for her. He keeps biting other people and horses. (I personally think he doesn't really like Drill Team)
Sarah, Drill Team May 14, 2009
Here is Sarah on Addie. Addie is a pro at Drill Team, this is her third year on the team, she doesn't do anything naughty like biting.

Well, have a wonderful weekend!!!

That "Drill team" looks fun! I love horses....but i never get a chance to ride them....except sometimes when we go over to my friends house! lol (they live a couple hours away.)

My sister and I love to watch drill teams. She, because she loves horses, I because I just like to see what they do and how!

Have a very bright, very cheerful day!

Okay, it is really weird....sometimes they are dark blue and dark pinkish....and sometimes they are the right color. That is frustrating! lol

Oh..... Anna soooo badly wants to be in Drill team!!! Right away when I showed Anna that your sisters where in it she moaned!! But we don't have a truck, trailor, or a good enough horse! Our horses are doing really great with riding, but I don't think we're quite there yet! :-) I'm really excited about the progress made with our horses though!

haha That's one busy hen!

Thank you very much for the comments!

My mom has always wanted chickens. We live in a town though, so I think our neighbors might have issues with that! :) (Plus its not allowed by city ordinances!)

I've always loved riding horses! I took lessons for a while, and I've ridden my friend's horse. It's such a wonderful experience!

God bless!

Wow, such lovely horses! (And sisters) Drill team sounds fun. I wish I had a horse.
I love weddings too:) And I still can't believe that I caught the bouquet! I really didn't think I would. I guess being tall helps. And I think a few of the other young ladies standing there to catch it, would have jumped out of their skin if they caught it! I was just rather pleased. My dad's reaction was the best part.

God Bless You!

Hello,

Thank you for the comment!

Today the lady we know from church came over, and it went really - so probably if Anna does be in the drill team some day, the truck and trailer is going to be more of a problem than the horse! :o)

Have a great time at camp! I suppose you won't be able to get on your blog at the camp.

God Bless,
Amber

Thank you for your comment on my vest. It took me a month from start to finish, but I had to stop sometime in there to knit a baby blanket.

Have a very bright, very cheerful day!
