September happenings












Many fun things have happened in August/September It started with Andrea Perona's Wedding...what a lovely affair and a lovely feast. I really enjoyed meeting all my old CVIII friends.
Then Autumn had a birthday and invited a ton of kids over for a murder mystery dinner..they all came in 1930's hollywood garb and really got into it.
Then Autumn and Ephraim started their horse back riding lessons for homeschool
YEAH!!!



Horse back riding lessons

Autumn and Ephraim got to take horse back riding lessons! It's very fun for them. Except when Ephraim's horse decided to roll while Ephraim was still in the saddle. The teacher yelled and ran at the horse to keep it on it's feet. The horse bucked and bolted, Ephraim flew off, landed under the horse and the horse jumped over Ephraim's head. It took a while for Ephraim to be convinced to get back on...scary!!! But he did it. He also put in a call to Uncle Nathan, rodeo man, to share the experience. It's so cute when Ephraim is trotting in a circle, he loves the feeling and sings gleefully as he goes. Autumn looks "fancy" posting on her horse, she belongs on an English Saddle....
