WOW!!!! We have been here a month already! Before school started last week, we took advantage of the weekends to explore the area. The first weekend we went to the Kentucky Horse Park. They were having a big day called "Hats Off to the Horses". Which was a big preview of whats to come at the 2010 Equestrian Games. The park was BEAUTIFUL! It was built just for the Equestrian Games. They had several different booths set up that were fun, educational and really pretty interesting.
Luci liked looking at the horses from afar but really could care less once she got closer. Towards the end of the day they were going to have short 'preview' of the events that will be at the games and then there was a competition. Not being a horse fan, I really didn't think I would want to stick around for all of that. But it ended up being pretty interesting.

The next weekend we went to the Raven Run Nature Park. It has acres and acres of woods with lots of different trails. We took a picnic lunch and went on a hike. Luci, who had developed into a very independent young lady, decided that she wanted to walk all by herself. That slowed us down a bit so we only went a mile. She had a grand time. She discovered that she LOVES rocks. Which led to us stopping so she could pick each one up that she saw. It was a very fun day for our family.
School started last week. That changed things a bit. Meaning that we see James for about 1 1/2 hours a day Tuesday - Friday. Then he is here Saturday - Tuesday afternoon. Since he is gone, Luci and I stay pretty close to home. Luci has recently become obsessed with books. Which is wonderful except that....the ONLY thing she wants me to do is read to her. When I'm not reading to Luci, I have been keeping busy with several sewing projects. So far I have made a diaper bag, apron, dress for Luci and a messenger bag for James. Luci had her first experience with Chocolate Pudding. As you will be able to see, she rather enjoyed it! Love and miss you!
