Robyn and Rhonda

Robyn and Rhonda were best friends 7th Grade thru 12th Grade. We lived two doors down from each other and we both had horses then and now.

We went our separate ways.........for THIRTY YEARS!

We have reconnected online and Steve and I were able to visit Robyn and her husband Don at their home in Deheasa Valley,CA on our way home from Pacific Beach.

It was awesome to see Robyn again and spend time with her. We will have more good times to come! Steve and Don had a lot in common (baseball and politics). Robyn and I had other things to talk about -LOL!

Hello Again!

Don, Robyn,Sadie and ? (I forgot) inside their barn that Don built.

Rooster Man, Robyn's Tennessee Walker and Zeke,Don's horse.

Pacific Beach

Steve and i went to Pacific Beach and spent a few days with Doug and Ellen. We had a fabulous time! The company was GREAT and the weather was unbelievable...averaged around 75 degrees! Home was 107 plus.......Ugg!

This picture is La Jolla. There were a few seals swimming right off shore.

We had some great meals (Yogurt Land!),bike rides,took in a movie and best of all spent the day at the Del Mar Racetrack. It was the first time Ellen had ever been, not sure about Doug. Steve had a great day.......he won 400 bucks! Yeah!

Do Steve and Doug look like brothers or what?

My New Bedding

My hubby refuses to give up our bedroom set while I on the other hand am ready for a change. No new bedroom set so I got new bedding! I think I like it! He He!

Beautiful Night!

Cowgirl's lookin pretty happy! She likes the sunset too.

I like Rowdy hangin in one of her fav spots.

It was kinda a miserable day but I went outside to tuck in the horses and this is what I saw. Its a beautiful night! Glad I took the time to look up.

Do Ya Wanna Kick Some Dirt?

Joanne, Jeni and Ethan came by for a visit. Trey and Jenna stopped by. Here's Trey's pony,Spur. Just hanging out in his corral having a long drink from the water trough!

Ethan wanted to see the horses and he wanted them to eat the carrots but he was gonna watch from someplace safe...with his Mom. smart kid, they are big aren't they Ethan?

Galladin our handsome boy!

I'll be darn....There are turtles under this cover! What are we supposed to do with them? Ethan told me the turtle was in a rock (his shell) and he wanted me to get him out. Had to laugh as I explained it was his shell.

And Ethan wins by a paw or foot.

Ethan likes to kick dirt. He can entertain himself for a very long time....kicking dirt. Guess what? We have an abundance of dirt out our way. It was fun to have Ethan, Jeni and Joanne. I really liked the big hugs,kisses and awwwws he gives you.

This is a very large playpen for anyone who likes to kick dirt!

Hay Is For Horses!

Time for our annual hay purchase. I'm going to put the logistics of this transaction on my blog as I can never find the receipt when it comes time to buy again next year. Steve always wants to know when we bought the last hay and how much we paid. 64 bales of grass hay @9.50 per and 64 bales of alfalfa @ 8.00 per bale. Thanks Trey for the help. Trey and Steve had the first 64 bales put away and stacked in 30 minutes and the next 64 in 45 minutes! We couldn't have done it without ya.....well we coulda but it would have taken a lot longer. Ha! I love my handsome boys.

Santannah was helping put it away his way.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TREY!

Trey is "25"

I don't know where the time has gone......Trey is my baby? CRAZY

We went to Flagstaff to CELEBRATE Trey's big day. Did I mention how cool the weather was in Flag. We had rain on the way home too!Look how Brinton distrusts us...all we wanted was for him to smell the pine tree.

We went to a bird show and on a little nature walk. The gangs almost all here.

Trey's self portrait.

Charlotte liked the pine tree, uh a lot. Weird.

We decided this pine tree smelled like butterscotch. A new flavor.

This is a Nixin hug. I luv it when she does this and its usually at a dead run.

Nixin loves her PaPa!

They had two Ravens that were trained to take a folded dollar bill from you and place it in the container. Smart birds the raven.

Nixin didn't want to do this at first but she finally did give the Raven a dollar.

Awesome!

Little imps with a little imp.

Umm, not sure exactly what Jenna and Nixin were doing but they had a good time.

Here is the nature portion of our walk.....There was much more. They had a plant called Lamb's ear. The leaves were as soft as a new born lamb. Unbelievable.

We went to Boot Barn and I tried these boots on Nixin. When it came time to put her shoes back on I tried but she said "No, boots"! Whatz G-Mama goin to do......give her the boots! They light up when she walks. Too cute! Brexton and Cote got walking sticks for our next hike.

We ended with a great dinner at Salsa Brava.

We luv you Trey and Jenna!
