Spring Break 2011

Meet the newest member of the family...her name is Fashion and Genna will correct you if you call her "the horse."
My parents got her from a friend because they knew the kids would enjoy learning to ride. They were right! Charlie, Mary Frances and Genna were so excited! Andrew...not so much, but he probably will eventually.


On the first day, everyone was a little bit hesitant. The girls would only ride with one of us. Charlie would have gone completely by himself, but isn't quite ready for that.

Take a good look! This might be the only time you see Mama on a horse. She had to say she had ridden her, though. Who knows, she might just surprise us all!


Andrew preferred to play in the rocks...


Andrew thinks "Cha-wie" is great (and he is pretty sweet!).


The girls were much more confident the next day. They cried every time someone else needed a turn and one of them had to get off. Mary Frances was so funny telling Genna, "Remember, Genna, you can't ride if you're frowning (that's what Mama told them). She's working it out, Evie. Just take a deep breath, Genna."




When they were not riding the horse, all of the kids enjoyed lots of swinging...



and playing Play-doh ice cream shop. "We can't stop! This is our job! The poor people will be so hungry if they can't get their dessert!"


We had a great few days at Memama and Grandaddy's house!
