Horse Back Riding at Lake Glendale Stables

The girls were super excited to show off their horse back riding skills to their Daddy. Chad had never seen the girls ride before and spending Black Friday at Lake Glendale Stables sounded like a great idea to us. Hannah rode Storm again and Hope rode Watch Eyes. There were lots of smiles all around and a bad picture simply couldn't be taken. 

Hope Lost Another Tooth

Guess who lost another tooth at The Farm on Thanksgiving? That's right, our Hope. Just like last year Hope came with a very wiggly tooth that she played with nonstop on the 5 hour car ride. Once we got there on Thursday the girls started eating turkey shaped rice crispie treats and out fell Hope's tooth. The Tooth Fairy didnt miss a beat though. She left a trail of glitter, a note and 2 shark toys. It was a great Thanksgiving morning for our little Hopee.

Thanksgiving at the Farm

We went over the river and through the woods to The Farm. We ate lots of great food and had a great visit with everyone! Meeting Nick's daughter Isabelle and Josh's son Bennett was pretty sweet, too. Happy Holidays, everyone!

Hope lost her tooth, literally

On our ride home yesterday, Hope started screaming, "I lost my tooth"! We put it in a container as soon as we walked in the door and I left to run a quick errand. When I got back Hope had already lost her tooth behind the couch. I found it near the floor board on the carpet but when Hope tried to grab it slid under the floorboard and wall. Hope was devasted but she wrote an adorable note to the Tooth Fairy, put it in her Tooth Pillow and under pillow. This morning the tooth fairy left her a note, a shark and whale toy and wake of blue glitter all over her room. Hope was a very happy little girl!

Skater Girls

Today seemed like as good a day as any to surprise the girls with their roller skates. What fun they had! Outfitted in gloves, fleece, helmets, elbow and knee pads the girls stayed out until it was almost too cold to skate anymore.
