So Very You

As soon as we came to the end of the Parade, Gavin was there waiting for Landon to take him up to his Sliderzz Baseball Game. He had a game on Friday night and won, so he was very excited for the games on Saturday. They were at the Gubler fields in Santa Clara, so after we had the float taken care of all the rest of the family went to the game. It was fun to have so many there watching Landon. For family to share in what is So Very Him really made the day special. Thanks to all who came! He played great, and the team won!

Swiss Days Parade

After the 5K we raced home and got ready for the parade. We had built the float earlier in the week and it was ready at the Webster's for all the Frei Grandkids and Great Grandkids to ride on. The float must have turned out cuter than we had thought, because we won "Best Overall!" I couldn't believe how many people were on the parade route, it was fun to see everyone. Landon and Preston loved throwing candy, Addie was getting pretty good at waving by the end too.

Grandpa and Grandma Reber were also in the parade. Ryon and Lex got the old Buick running and it looked pretty spiffy! Mom found old hats to wear and I think they looked snazzy! Can't wait until next year when the old 10 Wheeler will make its debut! Good Luck with that Lex and Ryon! :)

Swiss Days 5K

I did it! I ran my 1st timed 5K, in 28:24.8 to be exact! Not bad for a newbie! I was kind of nervous at the starting line, but then I found Gretchen and we found Nancy and I felt a lot better! The three of us started the race together, we were all in pink it almost looked like we planned it! Thanks Gretch for helping me to start running, you are the best partner a girl could ask for. I would have never done it, if it wasn't for you! I love ya!

When I went by my house all the kids and Gavin were out at the street cheering! I am so lucky to have each one of them in my life. They all came to support me at the finish line too. Mom and Dad drove down and cheered for me also, you would have thought I was running the marathon! (Not in this lifetime, that is for Steph and Tara! Good Luck this weekend girls!) Thanks everyone for your support, it was so much fun. Next year I will be beating Jake and Kallan. I hear Paul will be beating me...we will see about that! I can't wait!

Pink Night

Friday night at the rodeo was "Pink Night." We all were tough enough to wear pink, even the clown! We went to the rodeo on Saturday night, but I didn't take a single picture. It rained and was so windy that I hid my camera bag underneath my chair. That is also where Preston spent most of his night (under the chair) he does not like the wind, (either does his lungs!) especially if it is mixed with hay and horse hair. Needless to say we paid the price the next week when his allergies were so bad we had to make a quick trip to instacare. I can now say he is no longer a weezer, at least for a little while.

First Grade Rodeo!

Last Friday all the First Grade Santa Clara Elementary students attended their Rodeo. It was great! I volunteered Gavin to go help with the Dummy Roping, and he was thrilled to help! ;o Landon really was happy we were there and that he could show off his roping skills! They also had a Grand Entry, Barrel Race and Bull Riding (on some of the Dad's backs.) Landon loves school and I think it is because the teachers are always going the extra mile. Can I get a, "Yee Haw" for the First Grade, it's the best!

Rodeo Time!

Roundup time, once again!

Thursday night at the rodeo was loads of fun! After I had my 15 seconds of fame, Preston got his too! He drew out to ride a sheep! He wasn't to sure about the whole idea of falling off the sheep once he was done riding it, but he decided to give it a try. Needless to say he ended up taking the sheep down with him, so it probably hurt even worse! After he got up he was spitting dirt and crying, but by the time he got back to his seat with the trophy he was a proud "Mutton Buster!" Come to find out, trophies heal!

Aubrey makes a pretty cute cowgirl don't you think?! The girl she is holding is dang cute too! ;0)

Stay tuned for Roundup day 2, coming soon.

15 Seconds of Fame

This year was the 75th Annual Dixie Roundup Rodeo. In honor of 75 years they had all past Roundup Queen's ride in the Grand Entry on Thursday night. It was fun to ride in the wagon with mom and to show off our Queen Wave one last time!
