Visit with my parents!

Dad bonding with Charlie and Casey! All the "kids" got lots of loving!

I thought there was no way our old Dodge could haul 9,000 pounds of hay, but I guess it can! I'm so glad dad was around to help with that particular all-day adventure! ;)

Bedtime story with Grammy

On Saturday we headed to Lake Bemidji to spend the day and night with Travis' parents... I think the girls were pretty lucky to have two sets of grandparents around to spoil them for two days!

Dad and I went for a 2.5 mile run, in spite of the 90+ degree heat... it's the first time we've gone running together in years!

On Sunday when we got back from the lake dad and I saddled up Sunny and Bella and headed out for a trail ride across the prairie, down some minimum maintenance roads, through a farmer's yard, and back to our house.  IT was HOT but the horses did great, the flowers were beautiful, and we all enjoyed the ride!

 Some prairie sunrises :) The morning mom and dad were scheduled to fly out dawned absolutely beautiful

Sorry this is out of order... I have had a really crazy time with these pics!
