Little Pony Girl

Holly loves her little pony Misty. She is learning to groom her and balance in a saddle.

Holiday Time

Takes a long time to make the cookies, but they sure are good!

Putting up the Christmas Tree

We drove up and got a live tree again.

Rural Hall Christmas Parade

Sadie is a good worker

We had the opportunity to work a birthday party, and Sadie and Misty did too! Sadie pulled her cart and hay trailer, and Misty gave rides. Andy and Holly worked the party with us.

Time is flying by again and it's almost Christmas!

Thanksgiving Day

Mashed potatoes. The real kind. Made with help from a good smasher.

Basement Project

I remember playing in the basement as a child. Slot cars, ping pong, hide and seek. Pool at friends houses. So a big project I have undertaken was a total basement clean out. I mean some serious, motivated, de-junkifying. You would not have believed what we found to throw away. And I learned to be brutal, really brutal. We filled the trailer twice and went to the dump.

But now we have a pool table, mini fridge, entertainment center with a wii. That's two bookshelves and a tv stand actually. But it works! We have a nice piece of plywood over the pool table went its not in use that becomes a laundry folding table. Also there is now a large white board we can draw on.



We also had a cool idea for hiding the under the stairs storage. We have been collecting old license plates for a long time. Really I had this idea a long time ago, and now have made it a reality!

Horse of a Different Color

Usually I drive Sadie. Today I got to drive Lucky.
