Sunday

Hello again all you peeps out there reading this, whether you are family, friends, or just some stranger, thanks so much for reading!
Today I went to church and then went out to the barn. Today was apparently Pony Club, so we waited until all the Pony Clubbers were out of the barn and groomed R good. After we turned him out, he got in a play-fight with another horse. When we figured out they weren't trying to hurt each other, it was pretty fun to watch. It started by R trotting around the pasture, feeling his oats, and pretending to nip at K.C. Then K.C. started nipping back, and they galloped around. They stopped and started rearing and nipping again. Whenever R got a bite in, K.C. would bare his teeth right in R's face.
We also visited Stephenie's kittens, who at this point are about a week old. We were able to pick them up for under a minute at a time. I have a favorite (What can I say?), and I named her Tango. It just came to mind. She is black on her head, and has a white nose, like her mother, and a white chest, then a kind of hour-glass white shape on her back. She had strong lungs, too! There are still an unidentifiable number of kittens, but we're pretty sure there are six.
Also we recieved exciting news that yesterday my cousin asked his girlfriend to marry him, and she said yes! This supplied a happy event to discuss.
Except for that, there's no large news. We're having my favorite meal for dinner, and I'm starving! I hope that you all out there are doing great and are healthy.
Don't forget to count your blessings.

I'll count my blessings for 18 more days. Then I'm done! I voted for a pony, because then I could give it to you.
