Horse Camp









Horse Camp 2010 was a great hit with Maddy and Kate! They were involved in all the daily horse chores and Grandpa Gene gave them riding lessons every morning. The hot afternoons were spent swimming and watching movies. The girls are excellent conversationalists and very entertaining. We really enjoyed having them here. I think Kate is more interested in riding than Maddy, whose attention span is shorter than Kate's.
I've included a photo from the new Manhattan City Water Park. We swam there Friday afternoon and they have this String Ray Wave Pool. Of course, the girls and I had to try it out. Maddy did better than Kate, and this old lady ROCKED the wave machine! I was the only middle-aged woman and I had the longest ride(that's not me in the photo). It was way fun!
The girls got to hear my band play Wednesday evening and Kate even helped with some percussion. St. Joseph's Catholic Church had their annual picnic and my band played. They also have penny games for the kids, so the girls won a load of junk! It really was a fun week with lots of activities.
Now it's just hot!
