Grand finale to our cowboy adventure….

 ….with Soren and Sebastian.  

A horseback ride through the beautiful Sonoran desert!


A rattlesnake decided to take a nap in the bushes next to the trail.  Since it had claimed the trail and refused to move aside, we gave it a wide berth and forged a new trail.


Grandpa was our rearguard.  His biggest challenge was keeping his pregnant steed from biting him, staying far enough behind my mount to avoid being kicked, and keeping his hungry horse from stopping every few feet to nibble on the desert bushes.  But Grandpa forgave her, as she was eating for two and soon to be a mama.  

In the midst of all his struggles to handle his temperamental mare, Grandpa was still able to drink his coffee….this is definitely one of his many super powers!


These two grandsons are always up for any adventure.  They are filled with joy and enthusiasm.  But even more special is that they are both kind, generous, and loving….perfect companions for their Grandma and Grandpa.


Soren and Sebastian birthdays this year are big milestones.  Soren will turn 16 at the end of May, and Sebastian will be 13, a teenager, in the middle of June.  Since we won’t be with them on their actual birthdays, we surprised them with an early birthday party on their last evening at our home.  Grandma made a cake for each of them.


Thank you, dear Soren and Sebastian, for choosing to spend your Spring Break with us.  We love you.
