Good help



Carver has upgraded to washing bikes and pony carts. :)

My new Tack Room Front...

Mike finished off the front of my tack room in the barn. It was all a bunch of exposed beams. So he surprised me one day and finished it off. Looks super nice! I have a lime green door that will go on it also.

Our First Stitches






So we've finally hit that big mark in childhood. Carver was dinking around while I was cleaning out the tack room of the horse trailer. He was jumping on stuff I told him not to and I soon as I did that, he fell into the runningboard of the horse trailer. Needless to say, the trailer won. Carver got a couple deep stitches and then 7 surface stitches. His has since then gotten the stitches out and its healing nicely (amazing how fast the body heals). But this was a lesson of No more monkeys jumping on the bed. :P The ER treated him good and he came home with tons of goodies.

Rodeo Night....



We love attending the Ogden Pioneer Days Rodeo every year. Its just a fun rodeo. :)

Horse Shows....



















We've been to about 5 horse shows since I last posted. Its been a busy summer and I'm trying to catch up. Here are a few snap shots. My horses did really well. Bugs earned his HOF in MP halter (an accumulation of several points and wins. Takes a lot to earn them). So we were proud of that. Carver has been having fun. He has been showing Chase and I got him a pony that has a perfect personality to be a youth horse. So he's been getting use to working with him. They will start riding lessons here soon so that they can do riding classes at the shows together. :)

Pineview






We decided to head up the canyon for a nice drive and ice cream. Ended up stopping at Pineview Resevoir to play around. Carver threw rocks and we just enjoyed the nice weather.
