Tonka goes to school.... twice


Today, after our riding lesson, Tonka and I stopped by the nursery school where Kassy works. I wanted to pop in and say hello and she thought "her" kids would have fun seeing Tonka.
Most of them were a bit timid when they actually got close to the trailer and saw that big creature inside, but one little gal who "loves horses" couldn't wait to get close enough for a pat.
Tonka would have loved to get out with them, but, it wasn't safe to do that, and besides, I didn't want to scare the kids....
Mocha is actually doing a "real school" visit in a few weeks (like she did last year).... I think they will feel a bit more comfortable with her..

we got..... windows!!!!!!

So..... they cut big holes in my house and then....





go to lunch....

actually, they finished shingling the front side of the roof, and then cut the window openings... by then, it was more than lunchtime!!!!






The crate that holds all the windows and was delivered last fall... is finally opened!!!!








"honey.... there's a man standing outside our window!!!!"








and in goes the first!!!! got to get inside and see what they really look like........

we got.... con't



can't believe how different the house looks with the windows in...





this picture was taken from the kitchen looking into the living room... there are still windows going in here on the back wall (to the left)






our bedroom... which is the right front corner of the house... we have 5 windows in this room... since the sun comes up on this side... there won't be much sleeping in......






this is the other front bedroom... looking across the hallway into our room...

this house will have plenty of light and fresh air...
