Our family is really striving to keep Sundays rest days (it is sooooo hard), but it is hard for people like us to really, truly rest...so we often do family activities after "naps/resting period." Last Sunday, we had planned to go to the river and take Jeb tubing....but we left church at 12:41 and quickly realized that Jeb was rank and that the Chatooga would be COLD! So we decided to ride the horses. We started at 3:30 and at 6:00 we were on all three horses and headed out. By 6:10 were off the horses..not by choice. PJ apparently did not like that Patty got caught up behind him and he started bucking...Jonas bailed with Jeb. Both were unscathed--thanks to GOD! I carried Jeb back to the barn/shop on my back. Since I was the one out chasing the two horses that are hard to catch I was pretty POOPED! We tied Jack up, but he didn't stay that way so I had to catch him and take all the tack off...thank goodness Jacob showed up to help me load it--that stuff is heavy. Still, we ended up getting Patty to the corral for Jeb to ride all by himself. He liked it, but in hindsight he would've liked the river and we should have gone. Another Sunday that ended up to be not so relaxing and peaceful. Maybe next week! Jeb and Jonas are planning at camp out at the creek this weekend with friends--should be interesting!
