Happy, Happy, Happy

Birthday, Birthday, Easter!

March has been busy for us. We started out with Ryder's birthday party. He was spoiled greatly once again. I don't think he minds though. I was quite proud of myself to make it through a birthday party and making a pretty cool birthday cake, if I do say so myself.

Then we had my birthday, in which my Dad reminded me that I am old. Although I am not old, but sometimes at around 3 pm and Ryder had ran me ragged I feel old and like I need a nap. I got a really awesome birthday present though. Check it out!

Yes that is a concrete slab. But it will be so much more come the weekend. That is the floor to my new tack room. The rest of the building comes on Saturday. I'm really excited to have a nice little set up on our property for horseback riding and Jeremy is excited to have some more space in the garage.

We spent Easter up in Young. We got there LATE Friday night. We had fun hunting Easter eggs - Jeremy of course won again, but that is because he cheats. Ryder was pretty much just mad that everytime he picked up an egg I took it away, put it in the basket, and made him go find another one. And he discovered that jelly beans are delicious.
