Robert and I took the girls to the horse race track this last weekend they have 50cent night on Saturday and alot of free things for the kids to do.We don't know how to bet but watching them was alot of fun.The girls got there face painted,they had a clown that did animal balloons,and there faces drawn.We walked out to see the horses in the barn and a rider was coming up on his horse and asked the girls if they would like to pet it (its name was pepper) so of course they did.Then the man asked if they would hold Pepper for a minute and the man walked away.I think we stood there for about 10minutes when the man finally came back with a coke and some chips.It was really funny that he just left us with Pepper.The race track also has some animals to pet and you can do horse rides and it is all for free for the kids.It was so nice to go somewhere and it did not really cost us anything.I took alot of pictures and hope to have them on here in a couple of days.My mom has sent me some computer programs where i will be able to make my own movies out of pictures ,movies,and i will be able to edit and add special effects and music.
Sunday Robert had to do some ambulance time so he was gone from 7 to 7.I had gotten up around 5am and went back to sleep on the coach Robert went to work and it was so sweet because the girls got up sometime after that and saw me sleeping on the coach so they turned the TV off and very quietly went in the kitchen and made themselves waffles for breakfast.The girls also got dressed,brushed there teeth and hair and started doing some arts and crafts.Robert called around 9:30am and Courtney answered the phone and told him all about what they had did so i could sleep that is when i finally got up.I never sleep that long but my side has been hurting and i don't get alot of sleep.I thought that was so sweet of my girls to let me sleep in.Thank goodness they only wanted waffles and not something on the stove(although they know not to use the stove).Courtney and Kelsey are getting so big I guess I still think of them as little.You know how you always hear from older people(you know the people that there kids are adults or maybe even grandparents)that they grow up so fast.That is how I feel lately and I just wish they could stay little.
Tuesday night we have horse riding and it was so great that my dad came and watched.Last week Kelsey called him on the way to school to see if he would come watch and he said he would try.So it was really great that he did.It was to bad that Nancy had to work and could not come with him the girls wanted to show her too, maybe next time.Robert and the girls did not have work or school because of Veterans Day so we had the whole day to spend with each other and these days that does not happen very often.
Well I hope to make some neat movies and put them out here in the next couple of days.
Thought for today:The more trustworthy you are,the more trusting of others you will become.
That's great that you finally went to the Horse Races! It sounds like you all had a wonderful time! Kids do grow fast....look at you, you are my youngest and are 33 years old! Your Dad is so lucky to live near you and to be able to do those things, I wish I could do that too... maybe some day.. Your Grandmother always says that in the end, life was all about family, and she is so very right... Love you dearly, Mom
