Well, I know it has been a while since I updated this blog! So much has been happening, I have to get in the habit of visiting once a week to keep it current. The house is really starting to come together. The new floors are all done and we have moved to the outside landscaping now. My parents were here for a good long visit and we had a great time! It was really nice being able to treat them for once after all they have done for Steve and I over the years.

Today has been an especially fun day!! This morning I started my first Horse Back Riding lesson. I have ridden many times before, but wanted to really learn. My hope that is that I become proficient enough in English saddle that I can start to do some jumps!! After a really good session, Steve and I took his motorcycle out for a nice sunny drive. He enjoys this much more than I do. Especially after being in a saddle all morning!! OUCH my backside is sore! I try to be a good sport for him though. We stopped at a local farm and bake shop, but not til after we made a wrong turn and headed through a Bee Farm. Not a good idea on a motorcycle!! What was worse we had to turn around and go back through it to get out! It was all worth it in the end, we found the bake shop and we split a piece of pie. We ate it sitting under a huge willow tree by a pond and watched the ducks and geese fight while they were protecting their nests. It was picture perfect, only no camera because we were on the motorcycle! They are not all they are cracked up to be.

Now I am trying to wake him up from a nap so we can get back out side and start to plant some shrubs!
