Isaiah is great at taking care of Small One. The kids love to ride him. He does very well with them even though he is only 2. We walk around the house with the kids on his back....not all at the same time. Don't worry....he can take it. He is over 200lbs himself.
What a mess! This is the back of the car after we brought the horse home. The kids are smiling because they did not have to clean it up.
Dragon's first encounter with Small One.
Part of the family on the way home. It's interesting to discover how Adonyah's hair looks like hay.
This is Sequoyah leading our new addition to our family. This is Small One. He is a 2-year old mini horse.
This is how we got him home that first night. We lifted him into the back of the Expedition. He fit alright. We placed a tarp underneath him but there was still some "cleaning" to do when we got him. He rode in the back for 90 minutes to get home because of the wet and slippery roads.
Adonyah is helping to manage the leaves after a wind storm!
Letters written, carrots for the reindeer, cookies for Santa (there were more), fireplace open to make sure he can get in, new P.J.'s on, all the kids sleeping in the tent, and rocking chairs set up....for his delivery!
Adonyah working hard to write her thank you to Santa...for an umbrella.
Sequoyah thanking Santa for her new shoes, Isaiah thankful for his new motorcycle helmet.
Dad helping the kids set up the tent in the play room....what a fun traditions for Christmas Eve!!!
Eric and the kids made me a BAT HOUSE this year for Christmas....how cool is that!!! Between our ducks and the bats, we are doing our share of bug control! We are still looking for the perfect place to set it up...I will let you know how that goes.
Isaiah drew his dad's name for Christmas and this is what he found....for them! It was a great pick on Isaiah's part, they love this little helicopter.
Let us not forget Dragon on Christmas! The kids were so excited to give this to him and laughed hysterically when he ran laps around the house finding the perfect spot to bury it.
Is is cold enough? Poor Adonyah was frozen by the end of the night!
Warming up by the camp fire!
The camel enjoyed the attention just as much as the kids!
Smile for the camera

We went to a live nativity that included the entire city of Bethlehem. Isaiah got his chance to say hi to the camel.

Sequoyah in her preschool Christmas program. She sang all of the songs and even managed to twirl her dress in the middle of it. Great job Koya!
