Memorial Day Weekend Part 2

After Rylee's birthday party, we went home and took a rest for about an hour then headed out to my friend Michelle's for a cook out. Michelle owns 5 very pretty, very expensive horses, plus 3 great danes (one that she shows and wins), her husband, and ones small fox terrier.

 Cale kicking the soccer ball to me, but Breeze wanted to play too. She was more interested in playing with Cale than the ball. She followed Cale every where, waiting for him to run or jump so she could follow him.
 This is one of Michelle's 5 horses with her 6 day old baby. Mom isn't overly friendly but baby was.
 Michelle with Cale and Cricket (baby horse). She was perfect size for Cale to play with.

After Michelle's, we stopped at Josh & Charisse's for a bonfire. They had a huge piece of wood on the pile that burned for 2 days. It was really cool when it first started on fire.
 Kobe at home. I took his vest off last week to give him a bath and wash the vest. I haven't had the heart to put it back on. He's getting around really well on his own. I help him in and out of the house. It was so hot last weekend that it was ok to leave his vest off. He's acting like a 2 year old dog. He plays and runs and gets crazy.
Monday, Kristie and I had an early start. We met at the farm to wash little girls and take them to Footville for a parade. Then off to Orfordville for a picnic and another parade. Both girls did really well.

Memorial Day Part 1


Blogger is not letting me load all the pictures I'd like to tonight, so there will be more than one part to this blog. The other part will be in a day or two.

This weekend has been extremely busy for us! Jon flew to Texas to see Bryan and family on Friday, so Cale and I had to entertain ourselves for 2 days. 
 Friday night, we went with Josh, Charisse, Wyatt, and Kristie to AirFest at the Rock County Airport. We met up with Mike, Rylee, Beth, and the boys.
 Only 3 groups of flyers/planes where able to fly before the lightening and rain shut the show down. It was still pretty cool.
 This plane hovers. It was really cool to watch it hover by us and then fly to the end of the runway and turn around while hovering and then come back. I got a video of that.
Cale is the one next to the guy in the blue shirt next to the fence. They were watching the hovering plane taxi down the runway.

 On Saturday, we had Rylee's birthday party. It was a lot of fun. The weather started to get nice about an hour before her party and by the time all the presents were open, the sun was out and warm!
 Left to right - Cale, Wyatt, Braden, Dillon, and Rylee is in the front.

Mother's Tea

Cale's school had a Mother's Tea last week to celebrate Mother's Day. The kids sang 4 songs for us and made us a red flower pen. We also mad magnets with sparkle glue and beads while at school that night. They had snacks too. It was really cute!

 My surprise birthday party at Mike's last night. I had no clue! Jon and Kristie made me seafood dinner last weekend and we went bowling so I thought that was my gift/celebration! I have great friends and family.
 Cale playing with his Mickey Mouse ears from Heidi and Jason.
We had hail this morning. Came down really quick and hard for about 2-3 minutes. Looked like snow!
