Exciting Long Saturday!

Yesterday we took a road trip!  Olivier (and the school band) performed in a parade competition in Selma which is close to Anna in the morning.  She met us (Matt, Mason and I) while we cheered on Olivier and the parade block!  We were super impressed by their drum majors salute and how great they did with their march and music.  Olivier is in the second row and is the second one in!  I kind of like how these photos ended up being almost like a flip video of images.   

And here is a video of them!

After the parade we said hi to the band and headed to lunch.  Anna then showed Mason around campus, and he got to pet a few horses.  This one seemed to like Mason!

We then headed over to watch the field show competition!  They did great and we really love how you can tell they continue to work on it and are getting better and better!

It was a great day cheering on Olivier and spending time with Anna!  We all were very tired and thankful for a good nights sleep!

I spy Cheese!

Cheese was being silly tonight and was hanging out in the sleeve of Olivier's sweatshirt!  

 

Make your own parents weekend!

This weekend was supposed to be parents weekend and that got cancelled (hopefully just postponed to the spring) but Matt kept his plans to see Anna!  And they started off by doing mosaic art projects!  

When they were done with phase 1 of their projects they headed to the stadium!  

It was a great game!  Fresno lost but I think it was much closer than expected!  And they got to see a drone show after!  

On Sunday they finished their projects!

The finished projects!

First tournament of this club season!

This weekend Mason had his first club tournament of the season.  It is always a bit of an unknown because the team has changed a bit from last season and they shuffle the roughly 150 around to see how they should rank.  The first three games were in Seal Beach on Saturday afternoon.  

I am glad I got this photo of him setting and up in the air!

Early Sunday morning we made the rainy drive down to San Juan Capistrano for the next three games.  The gym had a strange layout and I had this view of Mason when he was getting ready to serve.

Here are a couple of his serves!

Finished with a really solid win!  Should be a great season!

Anna had a great ride on Oliver!

 

Homecoming 2026!

Today is homecoming!  These two are always up for a good laugh/pose!  First for the solemn photo.  

On the way to another spot we stopped to take photos with this friendly neighbor walking their dog.  

Working with baby horses!

Anna got to work with the baby horses today on sensitivity training.  Needless to say that makes for a happy Anna!
