We had a very busy and fun-filled Labor Day weekend.
Saturday morning Kylee had a dance performance to open the new studio. She looked so pretty and sssoo grown up!
They did a great job, seeing as how they had JUST learned the routine. One of them they forgot almost completely, and I'm NOT allowed to post that one. Here's the one I AM allowed to post.
Blaine also had a t-ball game. They lost again, but he looked good playing!
(Notice the tongue...hehe)
After the t-ball game, we headed to Ruidoso to meet Pops and Dawn and company. It was cold and beautiful. The deck at the house had these great gas heaters so we could sit outside in the cool air and play spades.
While we were playing, Kylee sat and drew pictures of everybody. A year or so ago, Dawn bought a table with a white board tabletop that the kids like to draw on. Uncle Ryan taught the kids how to draw butts. (OF COURSE he did!) Anyway, Ryan drew a picture of her that she, evidentally didn't like. So when he gave her the notebook back, she had drawn a picture of the butt with legs he taught her how to draw with an arrow pointing to it that said Ryan. haha! I'll have to take a picture of it and get it on here.
Sunday morning was just kind of a lazy morning.
Randa had had a blind date Thursday night that went well, and he was texting her. Daddy said, give me that phone, and he called him! He invited him to come up. And HE DID! BRAVE boy! Bless his heart! Nobody called him Jeremy (his name). It went from Lawrence to Lumpy to Loopey to Lupe. He was a really good sport about it, though. He even went by himself to the casino with the boys before he even got to SEE Randa.
That afternoon Pops took the kids to go play golf with him, and the big kids went to the horse races.
There was a horse that we, of course, LOVED.
We bet 150 on her, but she didn't win.
We all had a great time As we went to leave, the truck was LITERALLY as far away as you can possibly park and still be on the racetrack's grounds. So we decided to pay a guy who had valeted his truck to take us up there. So we jumped in the back of his truck.
It ended up being faster to walk, so we jumped out.
Randa saw a guy with a taco hat and decided to go ask him where he got it because it "rocked" and she wanted one. Although we all laughed, Dawn did NOT think it was funny and was determined to keep it from happening again!
After the races, we headed back to the house. Kylee and I went to the grocery store to get dinner and breakfast stuff. As we left the store, the TrailBlazer wouldn't start! Randa had to come get us, and we left it at the grocery store, since the guys were at the casino. When they got back, everybody decided to go dancing, so the car stayed there all night.
Then next morning, we got up, had breakfast, and just kind of hung out. A big storm rolled in that was so nice we decided to have a little nap.
Well, at least one of us did. The kids were watching for deer.
Everybody left but us and Pops and Dawn, so we did a little shopping, went to lunch and headed home.
