On a Wednesday Morning

Hi everyone! I hope everyone is having a nice week. I got to spend some time with the cousins last night bungee jumping, dinner, dessert (which included an icee as big as your head!!!!) We stayed up to at least 10:00 maybe more!!! We all drove home tired and full, what a great Tuesday it had been! This morning I woke up, my mom and I chatted for a few minutes, and then I grabbed a book and read while my little sister Rylen slept past 9:30. Here are some things I am doing, thinking, etc. What  I am doing this morning: I am thinking about taking a dip in our pool. What  I am thinking about: my book I just finished Keepers of the School, by the way a very good book. And Savvy, a book I also completed in these last couple of weeks, best book I have ever read. What  I hear:  Me typing on the computer. SaraLee's (our Golden Retriever ) Birthday is next Tuesday ~  the count down is on!!!! Happy early birthday to my favorite puppy!!! Here are some photos (that I did not take, but found.) Enjoy~Linden

Fourth of July/ Cousin Millie's birthday

Yesterday, I put my swimsuit on and jumped into my grandparents' pool. Our whole family was here to celebrate two things: Fourth of July and my cousin Millie's birthday. After swimming we all watched a bit of a movie and ran around outside. A yummy dinner of chicken, steak, fruit, salad, ect. was all put together out on the outdoor table. We chatted for a while and then we all played until dessert. Millie was turning #14 and chose pies for her dessert. YUM!!! We all watched her open gifts, then it was time to walk down to the fireworks. An amazing colorful show lit up the night with different patterns, colors, and shapes. We all agreed it had been the best one (which we say every year!!!). We walked back tired and full. I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July! Oh...pictures soon to come. ~Linden

Horse Show

Hi everyone!!! Here are some photos from my first horse show that I went to in May. Because it was my first one, my goal was to have fun and work my hardest. I was not thinking to come home with a first place, but guess what, I did! Even better, I had fun and I also won Reserve Champion!!! It was also Chap's first show too! He is the best horse ever! Thank you Chaps!!! Enjoy the photos.
