Photo splash to the past and the present,
just events to cherish, here they are....
A ride at our acreage - Swift Current,
with none other than BEN. Only, if you ride this
horse, will you know how special he is to be on.
I always needed a stool mind you, to get up onto his back, and hope
when I am out riding that we don't stop and have to get off
and then get back on; out where there is no stool. I have looked for many
boulders and bumps when this happens so I can leg up and get back on
(LOL)
Motherwell Homestead in-between Yorkton
and Regina.
This was an experience and scary to see these men
get this thresher running. How dangerous it was for
those farmers to operate this. They did get it running too!
My cowboy boots (Ariats) I bought in Bozeman, MT
in 2007 got an overhaul and I bronzed them with bronze spray paint
and painted
a bit of the design. I will keep these forever, and hopefully someone will
throw them in my coffin (morbid but thats what I want)
this Christmas season I realized that
Tom is a genius with puzzles he did this 1000
piece puzzle in 5 days - it is glued together now and we will
frame it! this was such a gift I had no idea it would
be put together that fast and it is a beautiful picture.
Thanks son!
We live 5 miles from a world renowned Strawberry
farm called Prairie Dome Strawberry Farm (look it up it is worth a trip) and they take you for a ride on the big
open ended wagons to your area of picking. Was enjoyable!
My dad gave me this letter that he found in one
of his photo albums as I wrote this to my
Grandma when I was 10 years old while at a summer camp.
(I think I was homesick a bit. I was only away for 7 days)
My husband (Brian) made a new bed frame for our
master bedroom bed. It was a new challenge and he
worked at it diligently. I am staining it here in this picture.
I was impressed!
One of my most dearest moments; Tom and I and Brian went for
a ride through the back hills at our Swift Current acreage during the holidays season in (guessing maybe 2009)
Tom can ride but his interest is not really that developed but he has gone
on a few rides with us. He rode Rocky and I must of been on Ben and Brian on
the colt at the time maybe Leroy.
Good Spirit Lake in April 2016
beautiful white sands and a lovely
clean lake for swimming and it has barely
changed since we used to go as a family
with my mom and dad. We always treasure
this spot and attend it several times in the summer!
Oh my this was so thrilling to see a sea turtle while
we were walking around the rocks at the Big Island in Hawaii
Special moment for me. They are so big!
Riding with the Top Line Trail Riding Club
at Sask. Landing and we were on the very highest ridge
I'm the second in line and Brian is the 2nd last rider.
One of our riders walked quite a ways up the other coulee
hill to get this photo.! (I was a bit nervous but I had Rocky and he
is the best trail riding horse, he is steady and sure)
Parkland Therapeutic Riding Club in Yorkton year end
party; the clients/kids got to paint this white horse
I have never seen that done before and this horse was amazing!
He was tied on each side of his bridle in the middle of the
horse barn so the kids could paint away.
This was exciting ! Tom was getting his puppets spruced up
and perfected for his first Art Gallery Exhibit at the South West Open
He had 5 life size paper mâché video game characters on display at the local art gallery in the
exhibition grounds..... this was
July 2016. His puppets are in this exhibit every year now.
and that was pretty special for me and Tom having my parents come see his success in the
art genre.!
This was a blast and having our acreage to have a fireworks
celebration was so exciting. We bought the fireworks at Canadian
Tire and set them up down our lane. What a Hoot!
Myan Riveiria in Mexico!
This was the most wonderful
ocean I have ever swam in.
Loved this swim, this ocean....I truly
felt I was in heaven for about 30 minutes.....
will never forget! The universe was aligning up with
me at that time, I know it. I said an amazing prayer to God. It was January
last year and it can be a hard month.... (sigh)
Okay this was so cute, I helped Brian do the chores for our
neighbour back in November and she (our neighbour) had at this time 30 goats or so. We watered and
gave them some feed and I took this video. They are crazy busy and cute and
a bit noisy when excited. Our neighbour loves goats and makes homemade soap bars using
goat milk. This was a unique experience.
Horse back riding in Hawaii on the Big Island!
So loved this it was so beautiful and serene and different
landscape.
That's all for now folks!
Happy New Year!
