Getting Back to Normal

Ah... a normal Saturday and it was perfect in every way.  It seems like forever since we have had one; however it's only been three weeks. 

We started the day eating breakfast together, Madalyn and I.  Madalyn asked for a banana for breakfast.  I love to eat peanut butter with my bananas, so I gave her some peanut butter and she thought it was very good. I showed her how to dip her banana into the peanut butter and eat it.  It was a hit! (I've been slowly introducing her to peanut butter due to her outbreak in hives she has had in the past. So far, she's showed no reaction. Hopefully, she will be able to eat it with no problems because I am a HUGE peanut butter lover.)

 

 

Then we headed to Aiken for a little shopping and not only did we find what we were looking for, but a few good extra deals too!

 

 

When we got back we went for a golf cart ride and of course we had to go see all the animals: sheep, horses, and the newest addition....five cute kittens!  A mama cat that Mrs. Katie has had kittens a little while go and we are just now being able to see them.  They are very friendly and Madalyn has really enjoyed them.

 

 

 

 

Next, we headed to the chicken houses to see Daddy! Yes, Kevin is back at work and feeling good. He's taking it easy but now that's he's feeling good, it's hard to keep him inside just sitting around.  He goes back Sept. 27th for a scan and recheck, but he really is improving more and more each day so we are encouraged that he's getting better this time.

 

 

A ride on the tractor with Daddy

 

 

Later on this afternoon, Madalyn went for another ride.  This time it was on a horse! Her newest love is horses. She loves, loves anything to do with a horse lately.  We could be on the verge of a future cowgirl or just a phase she's in right now, but she sure loves them and every time we pass them in the car or golf cart she's asking to ride.

 

 

A horse ride with Pop. She rode for a good 30 minutes.



 

 

Madalyn got to help Pop take the horse back to the barn.  We told her the horse needed to rest and she had to get off. She told her that there were more horses in the barn. She wanted to ride all of them.

We ended the day with some cuddle time watching Doc McStuffins and Sofia the First, while Kevin watch the Carolina ball game.  It doesn't get any better than this, except for we would have of liked for Kevin to have spent all day with us.
