Exceptional Saturday
I slept in until 6:00 am as today is Saturday and there were no pressing jobs. After breakfast I went back to work on the upstairs, cleaning out closets. I found this cross stich Evie Stoller gave to us for our wedding. It is under glass so is in perfect condition. That brought so many memories we had with Evie's family.
I quit around 10:00 am, cleaned up, went up to the truck to grab a couple chairs then asked Mark if he wanted to go with me to the Christian Center to watch Zion, Iris, and Eden play in a softball game. He decided not to go but I left at 10:15 and made it there before the game started.
Eden was up at bat.
She got a hit and ran to first base.
Iris was up at bat and she also got a hit and ran to first.
Zion also got a hit and ran to first. Everytime these girls were up to bat they got a hit.
Below is a short video of just a bit of the game I didn't get a video of Eden hitting the ball so she is not in this video.
I went to Aldi on the way home and bought over $100 worth of groceries. We were out of a lot of needed food. Ruth had ridden Grace over early this morning and put her in with our mares. When I got back from Aldi she had Grace in the lake cooling off. Diane and Joan were busy filling up rafts for the lake. We used the golf cart to fill them at Diane's then run them over to mom's.
Rebekah and her children are camping this weekend at mom's so Mike took them all out on a trail ride. Rebekah rode double with Blair. Riley rode Grace, Jordan rode Jewel, Berlica rode Rosalie and Mike rode Sally. Below they are getting tacked up.
Below is a short video of just some of their ride going down to the trails.
Ruth and I followed on the golf cart with Walter and Micah, her dog and the dog Rebekah brought. We thought we were taking a short cut going up the hill but ran over a log and got the golf cart hung up on the log. We had to walk the rest of the way up the hill. By the time we got to the top the horses were long gone. They rode over to the fields, ended up at the outdoor arena and enjoyed some canter time in that before coming back. Mike and Diane took the 4 wheeler down to the stuck golf cart and pulled it out. Just in time as I was supposed to give my airbnb guests a tour and introduce them to the horses. On my way up, Spark and Rhonda showed up with Barb and 2 cousins. I'm pretty sure they have at least 200 first cousins all over America. I think I heard Jude, was from California.
They were introduced to the horses first and once they left the guests got their tour. We ended up at the cabin field where they both fell in love with Rosalie.
As soon as I took them back Mark and I drove to Gils Supper Club for dinner. We split a cobb salad.
After supper we went to the playground where Ruth had a nice fire going. We really had an exceptional Saturday!
She had her camper all set up for Rebekah's family tonight.
I had a lot of pictures to go through, Mark is already in bed and I'll be joining him momentarily.
