Evenings

I went and picked Carlee up from practice after work and then went and picked up Tanner from Sara's. Brianna had practice last night so I tried to get Laney to come home with us and play. She is to cute, because she just looks at me and says no. She is a mamma and daddy's girl right now. Tanner tried so hard to talk her in to it but she kept repeating the word no!! Sara told Tanner that before to long she will change her mind and want to go with us all the time. When we walked out of Sara's house Tanner said, Well poop I really wanted her to come out and play. I told Tanner hopefully before to long she will decide she can come and play without her mom right beside her. It was to cute.
Carlee had a big test she was studying for last night. We were trying to keep the house quiet for her. I asked Tanner if he would go on a walk with me. He said he would if he could take Bert's sorting cattle stick. Tanner and I headed out down the lane, we sang, skipped and did other stupid things. It is nice when you can go out and just never really have to think about anything else going on in the world. When we were headed back to the house I about stepped on something I had no idea what it was and I freaked of course. Then Tanner wanted to go back and see what it was. Well the thing I kept thinking was I can't walk fast enough. We got back to the lot where Bert was checking out the calves. He was trying to see which ones might be good prospects to show. Tanner told Bert of course how dumb I looked when I squealed. Bert asked what it was and I told him I thought it looked like a pigs foot, but I wasn't going back to see it. Tanner thought it was a snake. Tanner kept checking my legs to make sure it didn't bite me. I told him if it would have bit me he would have known it. Bert was curious so we walked back down to the object. He just laughed at me. It was some kind of bone that I am sure a wild animal had brought up. I think Bert probably thinks I am a really big sissy sometimes. I guess sometimes I am just not cut out to be a farm girl. I think if Tanner would have had his way he would have taken the bone in for show and tell. Needless to say Carlee had a nice quiet time to study for her test. I don't think she was bothered at all.
Carlee plays in Joplin tonight and plays against College Heights. I think she is really excited. She had picture day today and was all dolled up. I am hoping to take some pictures of Carlee playing so we can post them on here. She is having a really good time playing Volleyball.

Tell Carlee good luck on her game tonight. Hopefully I can watch her on Thursday evening. Maybe Laney will come with me and she can play with Tanner. :-)

You may check - Tanner probably has that bone hidden in his room somehwere :) And, yes, someday Laney will be begging to go with you like my daughter. Last time she pretty much "snuck" in your car to go to your house.
