Sara & Jessie

This is a video of Sara riding JESSIE. She belongs to a friend of ours and she has not seen her horse jump this high since she got her. Sara decided to try to jump her and slowly raised the jumps each time she cleared one. We finally decided to stop at 3 feet and 1 inch! As you can see by the video, there is plenty of room between the jump and the pony. Have fun watching, it is a really quick one.

Me...


Okay, I know some of you ask why there is never a picture of me on the blog. Well, there's a very simple answer to that question - I am ALWAYS the one standing behind the camera taking the pictures. Hayden took this one after I had just showered and put on my nightie for the evening. Enjoy it, because you won't see too many more.

Hello

Hello Everyone:

Well, I have not blogged in so long. I have been so busy with all of the goings on around here, sports, end of school, getting ready for camp at my place of employment, job interview, etc. I am going to try and find some "up to date" pictures to put on the blog and will try to keep on top of it as much as I can.
Bob and Sara are getting ready for another week of soccer camp starting tomorrow. Sara is a regular employee now that there are so many "little ones" attending camp. She does a really good job with them. Nicholas also tried his hand at it, and did a great job too. Nicholas will be having 6 stitches removed from his finger tomorrow so that he will be able to play in a golf tournament starting on Tuesday. He cut his finger while attempting to slice up a watermelon! The knife slipped and cut deep into the finger... a couple of months ago he had 5 stitches in his foot, and 2 days before Christmas we had to call the paramedics out and take him to the E.R. I think I need stock in the emergency room!!
Hayden and I will be leaving for Philadelphia in the early hours of Wednesday morning. He is playing in an ice hockey tournament with a team based out of North Carolina. Long drives for practice are finally over - only 3 hours and 45 minutes one way! Anyway, we are excited to be heading to Philly and can't wait to see the competition. We don't expect any miracles, but the experience will surely be a great one, and hopefully we can surprise everyone and at least make it to the semi-finals next Sunday. If not, we will head home on Saturday - (10 1/2 hour drive,) arrive home Sunday, pack and leave for a family vacation on Monday (another 5 hour drive.) I think my bum will be ready for a long walk by then!
Okay, I will see what pictures I have. Will post soon.
Love to all.... :0)
