Just another typical weekend...
Sunday Sarah decides the weather is beautiful and we should meet at Ray Roberts for the day of bonding as friends and folicking...right...since when does anything we plan or do go without a hitch? Never... I am just so happy this wasn't initially MY idea. Anyways, we are going over the dam at Lake Ray Roberts and Candra and I notice a wheel going up the road in front of us. Low and behold, it's off Sarah's horse trailer (horses loaded). We were probably traveling about 55. Candra, mind you, is sitting right beside me say "hey mom, you see that". Ummmmm...Yeah mija..sitting right here...I see that...Well we pull over to check on Sarah and the horses, offer a little commentary and some support (not much, too many jokes and laughing involved). FINALLY, after about 25 vehicles pass by a lady carrying 2 horses decides to stop and offer help. You'd think in Texas AND in the country you'd get a little more help, even if the conditions were highly unsafe and very undesirable...still, 3 girls, side of the road...Texans should stop. Enough on that. We get the horses unloaded, reloaded and moved down to where we were headed in the first place. Sarah does manage to pull the trailer just off the dam and we decide, hell, it's the prettiest day ever...lets ride. Saddle them up...go ridin. I have not had so much fun in such a long time. More laughs, so much commentary (you have to read Sarah's blog for the story on the passer-byes and read Candra's comment). Ladies, a bad beginning turns out fine AGAIN. What is it with us? Are we doomed at the beginning of all our adventures? Can't wait until the next... Oh, yeah, that's this Saturday. 3 on 3 ladies...ready? Here's a couple of videos from the ride...not great quality but it's something. Oh yeah...it was also very windy so lots of background noise.
you guys know my theory...one is never enough...

Too bad we didn't have one camera in the back and one in the front...to get simultaneous different angles. Mom wanted to know why we didn't take any pictures of the broke-down trailor. I think we were a bit busy when all that stuff was goin' down.
Momma Jan, we were actually nervous up on the dam then after our 4 hour ride we were tired or maybe just too hungry...in the future I will remember to take pics of all the mishaps. Are you ready for this? You know there's always something going on...
Well, it's just that I felt a little left out of it all, ya know? NOT! (well, maybe sort of). I had a more peaceful day that day, down on the farm in Tolar with the cousins. Glad everyone survived the mishap and I'm so sorry that it happened. But all's well that ends well, right? Thank God for His Graces that day! Love,
