Haley’s first job interview and it was a working interview!!

BIG weekend for Haley with all these new experiences out of her normal comfort zone but she did AWESOME!!! 
She drove to her 11am interview Sunday morning (after the homecoming sleepover) to a barn right near her highschool called Beyond the Barn! Naturally she arrived at 10:40am to be nice and early! She wasn’t sure what she’d be doing but when she arrived the owner Mrs Joanne said she had a pony party arriving at noon with nine 4yr olds!! They did pony rides, painted horseshoes, gem mining and a little bull ride. Haley said it was super fun but as we all know parties are exhausting! Well she got the job and will be beach next Saturday!! So PROUD of Haley!!




This is her highschool and the barn is just behind the house on the left. So close! 


I enjoyed a long walk on the greenway while I waited for Haley to finish working. 


We went for some açaí bowls after I picked her up so we could talk all about it before getting back home to the boys and all their daily requests ;-) 




This is from the night before while Koda and I were anxiously awaiting the girls to return from HOCO! 


Sunday morning after we cooked a little breakfast and waiting for the girls to wake up to eat before Haley’s interview. 


Saturday after Koda’s Mutts and Mimosas and before the girls arrived to get dressed for HOCO.




Friday evening….the boys playing some football 


Haley also volunteers at her barn at school every week! She’s crushing this vet thing!! 


Noble was offering up frog legs for lunch….eeewwwww


GUILTY 


Brody’s hair is green again lol. Koda chilled with him while he processed 






All done! 





Koda’s Mutts & Mimosa’s!!

Addi’s 2nd Annual Mutts & Mimosas!! Koda was very nervous as she’s getting older (7yr)! She also had just been to the groomers that week so I think she thought I was taking her back there.  She had a great time once she got going and of course all the kids loved doing the obstacles next lol! 

Thanks Addi for inviting Koda!! 



















Haley’s Sophomore Homecoming at Denmark High School!

While Haley’s friends at Denmark weren’t going to homecoming this year Haley decided to ask her 3 friends since kindergarten who go to Lambert Highschool if they wanted to go to Denmarks! These girls had the biggest and loudest laughs getting ready at our house before pictures and dinner. Then we snapped pictures out back and they headed to hibachi and sushi dinner! After dinner they went to the dance for just a little bit (we all know how those usually go ;-) ) then all the girls came back to our house to sleepover. Again those laughs were contagious! No idea when they went to bed but I know they had a great time!
