Hi, I'm Mama Soup. I am the home manager for this crazy clan and I have made it my personal mission to record, here on this blog, our attempts at simplifying our life. I am usually wearing an apron and either cooking up some treat or thinking about what I can cook. I also love to paint, jog and drink hot tea. Welcome and thanks for visiting.

Fun and the Farm


Jonah in Sissy's ridding boots :)


Mr. Wonderful


The babies, doing their baby thing


Jonah out for his horse back ride with Dada and Sissy


Thumbo (brown) and Zippy (Grulia)


The gang





Dada took Thumbo for his first ever swim (we think - no one could remember Thumbo ever swimming before). He was quite reluctant, but Dada took him by the reins and won!!! Go Dada! Then Maddie rode him some in the water as well, that is the second video.

There were a few pretty eventful moments this weekend: Maddie ran into a nest of bees on Zippy out in the woods and got stung and thrown from her horse. Dada then had to chase Zippy down in the woods, who managed to break a rein before it was all over. Also, Thumbo took Dada for a ride through a gate (a very small person gate, not horse gate), unexpectedly, going full canter and managed to scrape his leg up pretty good. Guess that's just what you get when you're being a cowboy.
