"There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man"
-Winston Churchill

Kaylan's favorite horses to ride are Jet (black) and Lucky (paint). Last year we would ride over by Grandpa's house. Nearly everytime we would ride there we would see these tiny owls. They are so small and interesting. They don't live in trees they like to burrow in the ground. (pictured above) They are probably a third of the size of a regular owl and whenever we would get close to them they would make this hissing sound. It is amazing the animals you can see riding a horse even in the middle of the city. Depending on the time of day Kaylan would multi-task and nap while riding. I don't particularly enjoy this because I feel like my arm is going to fall off by the time we are done.

Playhouse Disney!

I got Kaylan and I tickets to go and see Playhouse Disney. It was a blast! We saw everyone from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Little Einsteins, Handy Manny and Tigger and Pooh. This play got Kaylan really excited to go to Disneyland.

Our family loves Peter Piper Pizza! (who doesn't?)

Ever so often for family home evening we will go to Peter Piper, it is a nice break from the norm. Kaylan's favorite thing is actually free she likes the indoor playground equipment. She also loves the part when she gets to cash in her tickets for a prize. This is so pathetic but I have actually gotten addicted to the Spongebob Squarepants game there. I almost have it down to a science on how to win. Yes this is how I spend my spare time trying to outsmart a game that was invented for 5 year olds.

Valentine's Day!

We had a pretty low key Valentine's Day! Kaylan got a scooter and some treats which she was thrilled about and later that day we made some heart shaped cakes to take to her cousins. I think Kaylan enjoyed being pushed on her scooter more than she enjoyed riding it herself. Oh well she can grow into it.

Nothing like a good love on Valentine's Day!

Mae and Papa Feeding!

Kaylan loves to visit Papa's house to help him take care of the animals. She likes to help feed hay and grain to the horses but her favorite thing to do is to bottle feed the baby calves. It is really special to have a place where your child can run and play with space to roam and dirt to play in. In the city that is a rarity.

John Deere, Kaylan Mae and Papa Sherwood!

Tiling dirt has to be as good for the man as it is for the land. At least Mae and Papa think so!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy 27th Birthday! So many candles so little cake!
