After a busy day at work we were happy when 4:30 finally rolled around! The BLM had our first fire, and it turned out to be 10 acres... Things are always rough on the first fire, and it is better to not be around for that. When we got to my Mom's Bri wanted Jake to watch her ride her bike. She had already been on 2 bike rides that were a mile and a half each. So he took her on a short ride. He ran into Parracks and then Jess brought Carston over to play. We visited for awhile, and then had to leave. We stopped at Wal-Mart, and then went to do the Wilcox's chores. Brilee loved bottle feeding their bum lamb. I was exhausted by the time that was over, and so Jake took me home. He and Bri went over to exercise his horse. After walking Chato around for awhile he decided to saddle him. Then he proceeded to let Brilee sit on him... AUGH!!! She came home and said, "I rode my horse that is going to turn into Goldie." I was confused and then Jake explained that she is the first person on the back of Chato, and one day he will be her horse. We ate cereal for dinner, and then passed out for the night! Bri came in sometime during the night, and slept restlessly. When she woke up she couldn't open her eye. It was hurting her really bad. Jake got her a cold wash cloth and she held it there for an hour. She couldn't keep her eye open for longer than two seconds. It was sad. We decided to take Molly and the steer to sales barn, and Bri assured us she was "all better." We went to Granny's, and Brilee fell asleep on her couch. She slept for about a hour, and woke up with her eye still bugging her. We took her to the sales barn anyway (because she kept saying she was fine...). We lucked out with our sales, and Molly topped the sale!! We were shocked. Jake actually told me on the way down there we would probably have to pay to get rid of her. haha nope 500 bucks later! Brilee fell asleep at the sales barn, and Jake thought she felt warm. Her eye was nasty, and so we watched the steer sell and took her to the clinic. She cried and cried that she was fine and didn't want to go to the doctor. We took her anyway. She fell asleep in the waiting room, and woke up when they called us back. She told the nurse "I am fine. I don't need shots." The nurse agreed to no shots, and Brilee did everything she asked. She fell asleep again while we were waiting for the doctor. He FINALLY came in right as she was waking up. First thing she said to him, "I am all better now!! I don't needs shots." He also told her he wouldn't give her a shot, and then she went into a big spill about how Dr. Staker gave her two shots (two months ago, she's like an elephant with that memory), and that he would give her baby brother shots and she would hold him and tell him "don't cry. I am not scared." She was very entertaining. The doctor listened to her heart and she told him, "I am good. My heart stopped beating." haha We were all cracking up. After it was all said and done her ears are infected, and her throat was nasty looking. We got her on her antibiotics and she was feeling pretty good by this morning. She woke up happy and first thing she said, "I really am better Daddy! Mama I am good." So today we had a eventful day where we checked a lot off our list! Thanks Mom and Dad for helping us this morning, and cooking us lunch!
