Fun things

Last week was a rush of fun things!

Monday started out with Bark in the Park- it was a fundraiser from the Davie County Humane Society where they opened up Tanglewood early and had the lights on but you could only walk through with your dogs. SOOO much fun. Cooper thought he had died and went to heaven after a fun day running at the barn- with his friend Lucy at the calf raiser's barn and then got to go there too!  He (and I) had never seen so many dogs in one place before. I hope they raised lots of money and will do it again next year.  I have been to Tanglewood many times before but it was very different experiencing it so up close and personal by walking through it- so much better than driving!


Tuesday Mom and I trekked back to Mocksville for the farriers meeting at Davie Co Large Animal Hospital.  I did an internship there back in undergrad and love the practice. Once a month they bring in difficult cases and take x-rays and talk through different shoeing options with many local farriers. It is a win for everyone that comes. Mom loved it and I enjoyed the review and seeing familiar faces- you can always learn a ton!

Wednesday I moved a horse that I have on trial to buy to Dana's- more on that to come- I will just say I am excited and can't wait to blog about this pony :)

Thursday was our weekly dance lesson where we learned Cuban walks- whew our hips don't work like Hispanic's and we were beat. But we had a lovely dinner at the Station before which is turning into a wonderful weekly tradition :)

Friday Somer and Steve joined us for the weekend! Initially it was supposed to be a birthday weekend party but I had to cancel because I couldn't find coverage for the weekend. Somer and Steve still decided to come up and chance me getting called. Friday we drug invited them along for our group dance lesson! We had a Mexican dinner first and then we went to group. Group at the dance studio is a bit different. They line up all the girls then all the guys and teach us our parts separately. Then we go down the row and each girl rotates dancing with the guys.  It can be a bit awkward but I just keep it lighthearted and chit chat which helps! Steve says he didn't like it but I think he secretly did and Somer is hooked- she wants to dance in Raleigh now :)
Saturday was a fun day of emergency calls in the morning and a wonderful walk, dinner and a movie in the Evening.
Sunday was a shopping extravaganza and I sure was beat by the end of it.

We are so thankful to have amazing friends that will travel 3 hours to come visit.  We are very lucky people.
