Vacation Week
This week is April Vacation week in Mass and what beautiful weather we have had! Like summer really and I wish I had thought to open the pool....but this has been an especially weird winter/spring so who knew??
Liam and Brendan had baseball camp afternoons this week. Lots of fun getting ready for the start of the little league season May 1st. The coach was former Detroit Tiger - Mike Laga and signed gloves and cards for all the boys at the end of camp. Huge hit with L&B!
Aoife started the week competing at the 4H State Horse Judging competition. She was on the junior team from Hampshire County and they placed 3rd. Well done!

The rest of the week has been spent at Pocketful of Ponies farm working with Marley and the big ponies.

Alan has been home all week doing "honey-dos" - beautiful counter in the laundry room, well tilled vegetable garden with fresh, fabulous compost, happy grass - seeded and limed, new pool outlet, as well as all of the other fabulous things he normally does!!:)
Sunday the 22 all three kids will be competing with the Hampshire Young People's Chorus in the semifinals of the Together in Song program on our PBS station. This program will be available on line and I will put the link up as soon as it is available.
IEA Season Ends
Aoife's IEA season ended at the New England Zones final at Mt Holyoke College on April 1st. She rode really well and made it into the final round. The top 4 riders in the final go onto Nationals and she placed a heartbreaking 5th place. Ack! It was a great ride though and her trainer was pleased with her. Next year, Aoife will move up a level and ride both flat classes and jumping classes. She can't wait!
