Roof Repair

Jozsef, Philip and Matt started work early on mom's roof. Anni, Logan and Anna joined in a bit later and by 3:30 they had the entire old roof off and the first layer (the waterproof layer) on. What made this even more amazing is that the rain held off the entire time they worked.


If you would like to see the rest of the roofing pictures click HERE. Meanwhile Mark got to work cutting up the trees that had fallen during the storm last night.
I headed out to feed horses and our guests were just getting ready to head to their big reenactment, the Middle Kingdom Fall Coronation.  They graciously let me take a few pictures. There costumes are hand made and correct for the period in history. The detail to accuracy was amazing. 

 The other couple had already left so I didn't get to see their costumes.  Karin and Kayla arrived to work the stallions and today they started with Evan.
 Evan saw the pedestal and climbed up on it without being asked. When Kayla asked him to back up he showed her the trick someone had taught him with first one front leg and then the other. 
After Evan was put away I picked up Kensley and Taegan who were sitting on the fallen tree and took them to the barn.

 They were grooming Studly while Karin was working with Valiant.  Valiant had to go check out what they were doing.
Both girls got to ride Valiant AND pose with the pedestal.



When Karin put Valiant away the mares were up watching as he walked by. He is such a handsome stallion.

 Anna dropped off Braelyn and the girls played inside for a while before heading back to the playground.
 Taegan made an underground stall for her plastic horse while Kensley drew a person with their legs standing straight up. 


 When the roof job was finished Anna took the girls home and I started cooking the meal for tonight. We had such a nice evening using mom's house for potluck.


I'm thankful for the use of mom's house and very grateful all these people were willing to drive out and spend the evening with us.  We really did have a wonderful time.
