Cousins came for Christmas

The Christmas play was very funny this year starring
Dana as God, Anna as Gabriel, Sam as Joseph and Silvie as Mary,
I was a wise man and narrator

Our first 4H meeting had the "butterfly lady"
pretty cool! she raises and releases monarchs
|
|||
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
I showed Lena in halter but she wouldn't trot!
then acted up in pleasure as her leg hurt so we cut out....
|
Then Mojo and I did the agility class...he did
well!
|
|||
 |
 |
 |
|
Mojo did well in his class, we got a blue! and
even though Lola is too big for her breed he still liked her and
we got a red!
|

 |
 |
 |
|
Have the stall all ready! bring on the horse!
|
and the pirate outfit is ready! yay!
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
The fair is about to start...have to get the archery
shoot done before the pigs move into the barn or we will have a
bar-b-cue! I did pretty good! ended up the top blue!
|

|
I just got home before I took off camping with
the church youth...interstate park is almost as cool as Yosemite
and we learned some new camping recipes! yum!
|
|||
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
In June we took our first family
trip since we moved to Wisconsin...I wanted to see "big
trees" so we headed to California...San Fran...Sequoi and Yosemite...

Spring volleyball is fun and different than fall
as you play in weekend tournaments! Serve, bump, set, spike!
|

We made it to the State FPD competition! we skipped out of school
starting Thursday afternoon and headed over to Green Lake.
It was a fun weekend but very busy! |
