More Fun Days with the Girls

The girls started sewing their project.  Both did such a good job listening and using the sewing machine.  They are quite the "seamstresses"!

Another busy and fun day on the farm!

The Girls on the Farm

It was the girls' turn to stay on the farm.
After their parents and brothers left, we took Jett to meet his Grandparents at the lake, then off we went to Grandpop's horse show for May.

 Grandpop's first ride was just ready to begin when we arrived.

After his two rides, it was time to "disrobe" Buttercup and head home.
Everyone pitched in to help.




McKaylea rode back with Grandpop and Emma rode with me.

After arriving home, it was time to feed and water Buttercup.


Emma cleaned out the horse trailer.

Pizza was our lunch.

The girls enjoyed ice cream sandwiches for dessert.

 After we rested, the girls began on their first sewing project, a pillow shaped with the first letter of their names.  We read directions and checked out what to do before we cut out the pattern.




Time for chores



Of course, fun time took place after chores were done.
