highlights of this past week

I can't believe that summer is almost over and that school will be starting up again soon- for the kids and for myself.  We have had a fun and pretty relaxing summer.  I won't go back and document all the happenings, but here are a few of the highlights from this past week. 

On Tuesday morning, Noah and Gray came over to play for a little while. We had LOTS of fun with them! 
This was after we had walked around outside looking for bugs and really couldn't find any.  We decided they must all live at Noah and Gray's house. :-)

The boys loved looking at Joshua's snake. 

On Thursday, I took the kids to the Ketcham's house for a horseback riding lesson.  They LOVE going out there and have SO much fun!  I love watching them enjoy the horses!


After riding the horses and gving them baths, they let them eat some grass before they put them back in the pasture.


I thought this thistle in the pasture was beautiful. 
This dragonfly seemed to really like the plant also.  It kept flying away and coming back to this same spot.
We have a betta fish and our cat, Smeagol, thinks she has found a new water bowl.  I clean  it once a week and by the time I need to clean it, the bowl is half full. :-)
