Busy Weekend

Too much pink for me, but the warmest stuff i could find in the diaper bag, she didn't mind.
A genuine cowboy will romp around in horse poo!!!! Gabe found the biggest pile around....


Jacob and Ray-Ray getting her horse ready.


Paw-Paw is the hero in Gabe's life...he wakes up asking about him and goes to sleep talking about him.



The cutest cowgirl ever with the cutest cowboy ever ;)



Gabe wanted to sit on the horse with Mommy, but NO riding...we'll have to take it slow.







Uncles Matt and Isaac's dreams are coming true, he will play ball. They say training camp will start at 4 yrs old for him ;)



The flirtacious toddler entertaining the waiting teams.


Lil miss Ellie had lotsa fun too!!


My brother is the one in the white nike shirt--the tallest on his team and the others.


Hi friends...
Well, we've had one crazy fun weekend....Friday night we had my brother Isaac's 3-on-3 basketball tournament at Onarga Academy. Last year he played with his age level and this year he decided to give the adult division a try....a whole new adventure! They played well even though they didn't win. I'm so proud of Isaac for giving it a shot and playing hard. Gabe had a blast...someone gave him a ball and he proceeded to go make friends with the "big boys" and flirt with many girls way older than him....*sigh* no one told me it started this young.

Saturday night we had my brother Jacob's girlfriend's rodeo in Hopedale. It was a high school league so it was pretty cool. Would have to say it's the smallest rodeo I have ever been to but so neat to see all these kids have so much fun. Randi (Jacob's girl) did poles and barrel racing...she was awesome! I got some great pictures, but unfortunatly none in the arena turned out. ;( Gabe once again, had the time of his life. He took his flirting to a whole other level when he leaned forward trying to kiss an adorable little cowgirl sitting in front of us. What am I going to do with this child?!?!?!?! No one is a stranger to him and all night long he kept saying a big "HI!" to random people. Ellie did great the first part of the night, was bundled up cuz it got chilly....then halfway thru when she was sleeping, a tractor came into the arena to straighten the dirt and she got scared. I took her out to the van and she proceeded to scream for 1/2 hr....nothing I did would calm her down. So we ended up leaving early and it wasn't until the van started moving that she quit crying finally. The poor girl....she is much more sensitive than Gabe was, but she is a girl so I should expect it, eh?

Today has been beautiful.....everyone is out and about enjoying the weather...we've waited sooooooo long for it to come! Well, Mr. Gabe is walking around me with a most delightful smell of poo trailing him...diaper duty calls. Hava great week!
Love n Hugs...Laura
