Bits & Pieces of our Days~~

I guess when you get this far behind in updating the blog, all you can do is share bits & pieces from our days over the last 2 months.  Here's a few highlights =)
 teasing the cats with Tweety. =)
 Jake & James "Build a Straw" was fun
 CAT work

August Fun






Hours of rides later, we stopped to poke the rabbits...heheh...


I "needed" to get horse pictures. =)
This horse was from the Land of the Giants.  It was seriously the largest most giant-like horse I've ever seen.
After all this fun we watched a monster truck show. 

Thumbs up! Good thing they liked it!
Fun start to the month!!
