Western Night

Every year our church has Western Night for Awana's. This is one of our favorite nights. The big kids love riding the horses and getting to dress up as a Cowboy or Cowgirl. I was hoping that Case would go this time without crying but no such luck. We couldn't even get him on the horse this time. Hopefully next year he will enjoy riding them. I didn't even try to get Braelyn on one. It was so windy she wound up hanging out in the nursery with Emily and Josh. Its so nice having wonderful teens that love your kids at church. I am so thankful to all of them!!!!

Emma

Mamaw and Case Braelyn and Russell.....another of our favorites!!

Brae and Emily....we are going to miss her a bunch when she goes away to college next year.

This was when we first got to church and Case was so excited about the horses. We should have had him ride right then!

~Our Fishing Hole~

~Crazy~

Colt has been wanting to go fishing for a while now. Adam's Dad gave all the kids fishing poles for Christmas (Thank you Papa'll Allen) so we decided to give them more use than in our front yard. It was the most beautiful day....I wish everyday was just like this. Anyway the old people didn't seem all that excited to see us walking up with 4 little kids but they were nice. The one man gave the kids minnows for their hooks since the bread wasn't working all that well. Another man told us about another good spot to fish. Adam said he wonders if that was his way of telling us to go there instead....lol. At one point Colt sat on the railing and I had a heart attack thinking he was going to fall in. So I pulled him back and in the process made him lose his shoe. He was a BIT distraught but thank heavens it was an older pair instead of his brand new Gymboree ones he had on originally. I would have had to jump in for those...haha!!! All in all it was a great day and I can't wait to do it again.
