My almost three year old insists he no longer needs naps. He spent his whole quiet time today calling me to tell me he wasn't tired. Now, at 4:00 in the afternoon he passed out in the chair in my sewig room.

We got to go visit the new baby! Lucy is totally in love with Juliana.

Practicing cowboy skills.

How to pass the time while your brother plays soccer.

Lulu showing off her stick horse she made at camp last week and her genuine cowgirl outfit that Aunt Joyce and Uncle Brian brought her from Texas.

Lucy's first horse related injury. She was walking (not even riding just walking on her on a lead rope) Sally this morning when something spooked Sally causing her to run Lu down. Nothing broken, no concussion, lots of bruises. Dr. Hartle was able to glue the big cut on the eyebrow back together so no stitches either. Lucy is sore but anxious to get back to riding.

We started the morning Fred sleeping restlessly starting around 4:00am. When I checked on him he felt very hot. Once he was up for the day I took his temperature, it was 103! His throat hurts too, we are waiting for the results of a strep test on that. Fun day!

Very excited for the first day of riding camp!!!!!!
