Father's Day

 Well another bad night, hopefully the last of those. I was pretty wiped out today. Mark went to church without me but I was able to stay awake and watch both the morning and the afternoon service.  Tim Funk had the morning message. If  you would like to watch that click HERE. David had the afternoon message again on Luke 2 only this time explaining the importance of what the Angel told the shepherds and then the importance of the praise of the multitude of Angels. To watch that service click HERE.  Mark stopped at Aldi on the way home and bought a gallon of milk along with some fruit. This afternoon Anna and Kensley stopped in at the apartment to grab the laundry. The apartment was left so clean Anna just decided to stay and finish it. She still found dog hair from 4 guests ago but not near as much. We had someone stay with a dog that must have been shedding, Joan ended up cleaning the apartment it as we left for vacation and it booked while we were gone, then cleaned it after the next guest and thought that guest must also have had a dog (they didn't). She thought she had it all up but the hair seems to hide then shows up on furniture and floors.  Anna cleaned it after another booking and asked if the guest had a dog as she had to wash all the bedding but these people didn't have a dog either. Mike came up on his 4 wheeler to get Blueberry covered. She threw herself backward, the breeding stand didn't break but her halter did. I found an older really strong halter and we tied her with 3 ropes. Mike brought Valiant up, he did his job and after she threw herself backward again but I was holding the rope, she didn't get away but Mike let Valiant loose, he ran right over to challenge Evan, Evan turned and kicked breaking the middle board before Mike could grab Valiant and get him out of there. He came back later and put on a new board.  Meanwhile the next guest in the 5th wheel arrived. She and her son wanted to meet the horses. Below she is petting the horses while her 2 year old is checking out the golf cart. 

At 4:30 pm we met at the playground for a Father's Day picnic to celebrate Father's day with the two grandpas and the 3 fathers that could come, Phil, Lee and Nolan. Dinner was delicious. Below are the 2 grandpas getting their cake.

Iris, River and  Eden were having fun on the hammocks.

The older grand daughters were playing volley ball in the gym while the others played outside. Below is a short video of a couple volleys.

The mystery of the banana bread, chocolates and trail mix were finally solved. Gerty brought it over and left it on the table when we weren't in the house. Thanks Gerty it all was delicious!

I need to be at mom's tomorrow morning and we need to move a bale in for Irish and Rosaleigh so will need to get up early to get that done before the walk so I can head to mom's right after.
