Another one Down

I think this makes three projects. This is a set of bedside tables to match a Mission style stickley bed. They turned out really well, except for a few minor details which you will not notice unless I disclose them, so I won't. I did want them darker, but there isn't much I can do about that now.

At the Fair

I entered my horse in the Fair this year. It was a lot of fun. I participated in the Western and English Equitation and Pleasure classes. I also did the gaming which are speed events like barrels and poles and an obstacle course. I got 3 3rd place ribbons and 22 bucks. It was a good learning experience as almost everything was new to me and everything was new to my horse. Scout (my horse) showed a lot of potential.

Scout all trimmed and polished in his stall at the fair.


Me in all but my helment english riding get up. I love the pants. NOT!

Wyatt also got to go on his first rollercoster he loved it.

Baseball

Wyatt got a baseball glove. He wanted one because Daddy and Grandmpa Mike have one and he wanted to play, but the gloves were all too big. Anyway he was so happy when he got his that he was too busy looking at his mitt to play. Too Cute. He has had fun and isn't too bad for a 3 year old.

Fall Pictures

I tried to take some pictures of the kids today out on the running trail, but it was pretty cold. Last time I tried it, wyatt was Ella's age. It is kind of hard to get wyatt to pose without looking posed. Anyway here are some of the attempts runny noses and all.

Playing Catch up

Hello All,

We've been kind of busy. Since my last post Josh has finished another piece of furniture and we're more than half way through another. We're thinking about renting a place to do business so I can reclaim the garage. I'm watching summer start to slip into fall.



Alexis and Dan




An awesome picture of Alexis' red shoe


I went huckleberry picking with my grandma and grandpa. The berries were huge! It was fun. We just left Ella in the backpack and Grandpa broke off bushes so she could dine with ease like a little Ella bear.



My mother in law got this at a garage sale. It might be a little small come October, but it is soooo cute! He is always pretending to be a dinosaur.







This is a piece we did for some friends of ours to alleviate the shoe jumble in the Garage. We called it the shoe bench. It is made our of pine. I thought it turned out nice especially after it was gone.
