Our Trip to Florida

We just returned from our trip to Florida. It was so nice. No one got sick while we were there, and there was so much to do. Here is a picture of us when we went on a trail ride. The girls loved it so much. Ava and Mya were so cute chatting between themselves the whole ride. Pat wasn't so much a big fan. It was his luck that he got the most sensitive horse there. Lena enjoyed riding so much that she got relaxed enough and started to fall asleep. Thankfully Littlelou was walking next to her telling her "don't close your eyes." Maybe one day the Hayes girls will have a horse, but not anytime soon!

Student of the Month!

At the beginning of the month Ava saw the school newsletter.  She saw the students of the month, and told me she wanted to be one.  I explained how you had to do many nice things to get student of the month.  Today she came home excitedly telling me she got student of the month.   I won't lie I didn't know what to think.  I was thrilled when she pulled a bracelet that said student of the month out of her backpack.  I told her how proud I was of her.  She then let me know that someone told her that I had done a good job too!  She is thrilled that her picture will be taken and hung up.  Ava choose to have pizza for dinner to celebrate.  I went to pick it up and on the way back a dear ran out in the road.  Next time I let them deliver!           

The Horse Lover

Here is Lena wearing one of her favorite shirts.  She prefers to wear clothing that have horses on them.  Her bedroom also has all kinds of horses.  Can you believe she is going to be three in May?!  I don't know where time goes.  Lucky for us she hasn't figured out how to ask for a horse.  Lena keeps us on our toes.  I am hoping I can keep her healthy for the rest of winter.  January she had Pneumonia, and last week had an ear infection.  The ear infection certainly didn't stop her from getting in trouble.  We got home from the doctors, and I went out to get Ava from the bus.  Silly me I thought what trouble could she make she has a fever and doesn't feel well.  I came back to cayenne pepper all over the living room floor!  From now on I wave to the bus driver from the door.
