Busy Boys

David and Stephanie invited us to their new home for dinner. We were suppose to be there by 3:30pm but the time was so short between church and leaving for dinner we ended up a few minutes late. As soon as we were changed out of our church clothes it was out the door with the 2 dogs to start teasing mares. Zalena was the first mare pulled out and she was in and ready. She was brought over to Raven but he was taking his time and time was one thing we were short on so Raven was put back and Valiant brought out. Now 2 year old stallions are more than willing and get the job done quicker than an ice chip melting on a hot sidewalk. Valiant got the job done in less than 2 minutes. Zalena was put away and Ella brought out for Evan. Evan also got his business done quickly giving me just enough time to wash up before grabbing the food we were bringing and head over to pick up mom. She was busy shooting baskets as we were a few minutes late and even though she says she was not showing off, I think she was waiting for us to drive up before shooting from the 3 point line with the ball swishing through. That sounds like she was showing off right? I may be exaggerating a bit on some of that but she really was shooting baskets.
Rhoda needed to leave dinner before dessert for her weekly volleyball game. Her team mates are Rachel, Karin, Kari, Tara, and AmyBeth. Rhoda was asking if Sarah would go to keep score but Sarah couldn't go. Mom asked if one of the parents that go to watch their daughter would do it and Rhoda comes back with, "you have 2 daughters there would you like to come watch and keep score?" Funny to think of mom just 4 months shy from her 80th birthday having daughters that are on a volleyball league.
