Stanton and Chardonnay take 1st place at Training level






Stanton had a show the Saturday she and Bo got home from Cooperstown...poor girl had a high fever and was really sick...come to find out she has pneumonia!
They took first place, anyhow, and made us so proud! Great job, ladies!
This is "part" of Stanton's Dressage test...I had small people at my feet which made videoing and keeping them ON the hill and out of the arena a bit challenging...

Field Day at Holy Redeemer

Stanton has pneumonia and has temporarily taken over the Blog duty...I have been way too busy lately...Enjoy!!
We can't wait till eighth grade....

This was at Carly's party...we had a blast. And it was officially summer! Yay!

This is me and Nan before Carly's end of the year party...we were just playing around.
This was me, Stafford, Colin, some 6Th grader, and Brady having fun before we got to go to a party!
This is Basil and Nick (Natalie's brother).

This is Stafford and his friends, Brady and Colin.

Field Day was so much fun! The seventh graders were kind of in charge of everything, so I got to spend the whole day with kindergartners, which was funny. This is Natalie and I during carpool...

Cooperstown '09

And so they flew home.....
They had a blast but had to hurry home, because they were about to miss their flight .
also had a horse show on Saturday.


Stanton and Bo went back to the field to see their last game before they had to fly home...

Then they went and saw a river. They thought they saw beavers but they were actually fish. And they did see a beaver...on the side of the road (it was alive) in the middle of grass.


They had all these old houses there, some were even haunted. ooh spooky!


They went site seeing...and it was pretty.

This was the concession stand.

They were truly living the dream....for a week.

Back to the fields.


This was the Pioneer Patio. Lots of memories were made here...


After the Hall of Fame, they all went out to eat...not here but the name of this place made Stanton laugh, so she and Bo went there to eat just because.


This was one of the many jerseys they had there...Stanton liked this one the most.


Some ahhhmazing baseball quotes...

These are the famous golden balls.

Then they went to the Hall of Fame...pretty interesting stuff there.

Stafford was pumped to be there.

This is a cool sign.

This was the stadium for the Championship game.

The game was "intensifying" ha ha i made that up.

YAY! Stafford's playing right field.

It was sooooo pretty!

Then at 7:30 in the morning...they got there. How exciting!
They even saw a tractor, that was huge!

So then, they drove through the country to get to Cooperstown "The Field of Dreams."

This was the first thing they saw, when they woke up, in the car....it's amazing what you miss when you are driving at night, trust me.

They got to the Meadowlark Inn at 4:30 in the morning. It's a good thing they love Stafford so much.

While at the airport they decided to chill out and get some drinks...

Shhhhhh! It's a surprise! Stanton and Bo left Atlanta at 9:15 and landed at 11:30 in Rochester, New York. And set off on a long road trip to Cooperstown in the middle of the night.
Sorry this is all backward...Stanton is new to this tricky Blog thing!! I will post more Cooperstown pictures from Bo's camera...I promise. Summer is REALLY busy with 5,PLUS always more, kids here!!
