Ganna and Pa Paw: November 2009

Almost all of the kids were here for a busy weekend. Friday night after dinner, Jordan and Donald got started on building the pig pens. Saturday morning they got up to work some more. Of course Morgan was ready to go outside and take Lacey out. Kennedy wanted to ride in the jeep but was just a little short in the britches so Aunt Ashley had to try and help her out although she was a little big in the britches for the jeep. Needless to say, they made it down to the barn after all. We all got ready for the ACU vs Midwestern game. It was beautiful weather outside. Kennedy had fun feeding everyone cotton candy and Morgan met up with some friends to play with at the game. It was a sad loss for ACU of 13 to 15 but they still made it to the playoffs and will play Midwestern again next Saturday. So best of luck to ACU on Saturday. Jason got to ride back to Olney with Whitney and spend the night at the house but had to leave to go back to Abilene Sunday morning. After church and lunch that day, Jordan and Donald headed back to finish up the pens. We all played outside all afternoon. Morgan was patiently waiting to ride Ginger. In the meantime she was playing like she was on her horse and trapping bears or shooting them at North Creek. We built a horse trailer out of a box and Kennedy rode in it behind the jeep. We all rode the ranger around, played with the horses and Lacey and just enjoyed the beautiful weather outside. Kennedy loved running free in the field and swinging. Finally Morgan got to ride and did very well. She then helped to lead Kennedy around on Ginger. Kennedy was not sure about riding at first but after she got going she was laughing and enjoying it. She alwasy wants to stay outside. She kept saying PaPaw side, side and would say no and kick her legs when you tried to take her out of the swing.Kennedy is a little PaPaw's girl for sure. Morgan and I ran to the grocery store to grap some sandwich stuff. They have little kid carts there so Morgan got one and did the shopping. She was so cute pushing the little cart. Sure wish I had had my camera with me. I think she was a little concerned with what I was wearing tothe grocery store. I will have to remember next time if we are taking pictures to dress a little better, but at home, I usually wear my comfy clothes and do not care what I look like. I told her it would be ok if I went that way. After dinner they loaded up everything, panels and all and everyone headed back to Abilene.

It was a fun and busy weekend but we had a great time.

Ashley & Kennedy headed to the barn.
