Everyone was out of town except for us this week….I had to work nights – so Chevy got to go to her “school” for a sleep over!!

When I came to pick her up the next morning, all her little piggies were painted blue!!  So cute & yummy!!!

We went home, had breakfast & chilled out.  Then we headed to Vernon for the Interior Provincal Exhibition!

Of course we had to visit the petting zoo – you are so gentle with the animals and you just love them so much!

     

A little ride on a pony, although nowhere near as exciting as riding your horse, Annie:

  

Then we hit the midway rides and games (you practically emptied your Mama’s wallet!! But you won lots of prizes!)

  

And we ended our day with soem face painting fun!

     

      

…..so tired on the way home:

Meanwhile…. back at the ranch:

You are getting really good at riding Annie!                                                         …and a little bareback riding too:

     

While Mama put the tack away you checked out the horses BIG dinner bowl:

We stopped by the nieghbors (G.Uncle Bob and G.Aunty Paddy) and checked out their hay supplies:

     

Mama wanted to find McCall Lake (its above our house somewhere…) and brought her own cheering section:

Of course, after Mama climbed ALL those hills with Chevy sleeping in the chariot….SOMEONE woke up when we got back to the car nad wanted to RUN!!!  =D

Honestly, I DO put clothes on her in the morning….

Hanging out in Naramata (shuttling for Dad-Dad):

Naramata Elementary School:

  

Three Mile Beach….Chevy was in the lake up to her knees before I even had a chance to stop her.  It wasn’t so bad, the water didn’t feel that cold…compared to????

     

Chevy thought it would be a good idea to go for a swim…..why not???   Not me, thanks!

  

Making “silly faces”:

“Wine tasting” at Tin Horn Creek winery in Oliver (waiting for Dad-Dad nad the boys to ride down):

  

Making cookies with Mama: (Aunty Paula sent the cute little apron!):

  

My laundry-day helper:

Welcome to Chevy-town:

“Hello pillow bug!” (pillow bug = pill bug):

Homemade hopscotch:

Sept 16 was Grandma’s birthday….so Chevy took her to see “Max & Ruby” Live at the Kelowna Community Theatre:

Preshow anticipation:

MAX & RUBY!!!!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAY!

At Grandma’s 70th Birthday party (everyone LOVED YOU)!!

     

                                                                 

Getting really confident with your horse Annie, insisting on walking her back to the barn!
