Sunday Picnic

We had a lot of frost this morning. Hard to believe it is this cold for April 29th but the sun was shining so we knew it would warm up. Star and her colt by Valiant were up by the bale framed by the morning sunshine. Check out the length of Star's tail. It drags on the ground if not braided up.
 Peoria was blessed to have Rick Kaisner give the morning message and his brother Mike had the afternoon message. We heard of Ruth, the entire book of Ruth was talked about even though just the first chapter was read, then the miracle of the loaves and fishes, Paul and Silas in prison and the earthquake, the saving of the jailer and all his family. It really was a day to listen to again.  Hopefully it will be up on AC Central soon.
Right after church Brandee's mare Lilly was teased and she said no.  Jury was still in and covered although we are not sure why she is still showing. It is 11 days from the first cover. If she is still in tomorrow I'll have to see about getting an ultrasound done on her to find out why.  There was a broken fence post and board down in Brandee's mare's paddock. I'm not sure if she kicked the fence or just leaned against it. Mark and Karin helped put on 2 new boards and temporarily fix the broken post.  Hadassah was teased and she is also out.  Her filly was taken into the stall, haltered, tied and hooves picked up. She remembered everything and was a joy to work with.
Below are a few pictures of Missy's filly actually taken yesterday but just posted today.


This afternoon Joan had organized a picnic at the playground. Lots of games, dinner and a campfire. Below are a few pictures of the afternoon and evening.


Yesterday Diane put up the second trampoline she bought last fall. The kids had a ball jumping from one trampoline to the other. 
 Spike ball was also played a lot today.

 The campfire was needed, as soon as the sun got low in the sky the air turned cool and the heat from the fire felt wonderful.
