Saying Goodbye to Miss Abby!

Week 47:  It started out as the same old week in the Whatley house! A week of school, playing outside, horseback, and fun times with our friends!  It hit me on Wednesday morning, Mary Virginia is almost done with her first year of school.  I can't believe how quickly the time has flown by.  She has had a wonderful experience here, we have been so lucky!  MV had her cap and gown pictures on Wednesday, I can't wait to see the pictures - but it is really going to hit me that she is growing up! 
One of our favorite neighbors came over to play and poor thing, the kids made her dress up!  They were playing "Mike the Knight".
 Friday we were back at the barn, but it was a little bitter-sweet.  MV did great riding on Cayenne.  She also "jumped" with him for the first time.  The bitter part was that this was her last riding lesson with Miss Abby.  We have met the new instructor (and I know we will riding with her), but we are really going to miss Abby! 
Here are a few pictures of MV on Cayenne.




Here is John Bay hanging out at the barn...he wanted his picture too!

It was another lazy weekend!  We stayed around the house most of the day on Saturday, which was perfect!  On Sunday, after church, we cooked dinner to take over to the Harpole's!  The kids were able to see the new baby and visit for a few minutes.  They wanted to know where his toys were...I guess they don't understand that he is only 1 1/2 weeks old!
