For Stephanie.....



My little Punky Pirate! And the "eyeballs" we made for her to take to her class party!









Isn't she scary?! and then, look, not so scary....




My little princess at the Tea Room.....







Sutherlyn and me at the Strawberry Tea Room! We had a fun lunch date......








At the beginning of June, Lexi competed in her 1st Horse Show...she did so well that our trainer, Robin, asked if Sutherlyn wanted to show her that day too, so she did. They won 1st place (they were the only ones in the class) but hey, a blue ribbon is a blue ribbon right?! Don't tell Sutherlyn she was the only one. She and Lexi were very proud of their ribbon! Usually when that is the case (only one person in a class, etc, then the rider/trainer, whomever, does not take the ribbon). However, Lexi had shown in a few classes and was ridden by Sara, Robin's daughter. She placed with other ribbons in the other classes and we did not take the ribbon. However, on this one in particular and one other, Sara felt that Lexi did so well, she deserved the ribbon and so did Sutherlyn, so we kept those! It was low key, not a high stress/highly competitive place to show, but we had fun....It was a learning experience for all of us.







In June, Sutherlyn spent a week at Soccer camp with the British! This is her and her coach, Murray. She had a great time!
