Wow what a day, the kids started showing up at 8:00am to demolish the walls in the 150 year old farm house. Mark and I had to leave for a funeral at 9:30am and by the time we arrived back they had an unbelievable start. Karin, David, Philip, Ben and Anna worked with sledge hammers, power tools, jack hammers and human power to remove enough of the walls to give me a vision of how nice this old house will be.
They stopped for lunch then went right back to work.
Below is a picture of Ben and Philip just exhausted once they quit for the day.
While they were doing all the heavy labor I was in playing with my grandchildren. Now I don't want to brag or anything but just look at the pictures below, aren't they just about the sweetest kids EVER!
Karin, Rhoda and Steven left off the house and started working horses and by the time they quit they had Super, Jewel, Ella, Zalena, Eliza, Ciera, Jenis, Valiant and Evan doing well. Many pictures were taken and will be uploaded on each of the horses website pages later.
Rhoda took Jenis over the barrels a few times.
The next few pictures are of Steven working Evan in the indoor. Next time he is going to do this I'll ask him to use the outdoor and a video will be made. Evan and Steven have a special connection.
Both Valiant and Evan are booked, we have 2 mares coming in for breeding tomorrow. The owner wants a Raven daughter bred to Evan and is bringing in another mare she wants bred to Valiant.
Mark helped move a bale in the empty paddock and another in Super's paddock.
We need to leave in just a few minutes for the fellowship hall and will meet at the playground in 5 minutes. Time to GO!
