Our soccer season came to a close, we had a fun team and three tough girls who battled it out against the boys with us. Weston is a good team player and he loves to play goalie.

Uncle Brayden gave Owen this saddle that his Grandpa gave him when he was this age. Owen loves horses so much, we had to finally take the saddle out to the shed because he wanted it on his bouncy horse all day long and it just wouldn't fit well and stay straight--which makes that kid crazy. Today I spent the morning and lunchtime calling Owen and Anna by the names of Mitch and Heather (my brother and his fiancee). They love to play married couple.

Paige learned to ride her bike on Saturday without training wheels. We put her on, gave her a push and off she went. No wobbling or anything!

Last couple of weeks...

Tyler likes to make sure Weston rides a sheep whenever possible to practice up for the rodeo.

We helped the Wallentines round-up, brand, and vaccinate the cattle. Owen was so excited and talked non-stop about it beforehand. He was pretty scared of the whole situation once he got there and took it all in. Now that it is over he keeps asking me when he can go and burn the cows again. He got a new hat and this is where I found it the first night. In his prayers, which, "he can do by himself", he usually prays, "Please bless that I can ride the horses." He stays pretty focused on what he likes.

We had a shower for Kirstin and the kids were plenty of help. Anna loves to be the center of the party and any open lap usually has her name on it.
