Ohhhhhhhh, that sounds like fun. If I were home then I would go, but somehow I qualified for all kinds of stuff for track so I am at school through the end of the month. Have fun with Swayze and take lots of pictures (is Bugsy going as well? ) Miss you

Hi Emily! That's good you're doing so well in track! Bummer you're coming home later, but still glad you are doing well. No, Bugsy's not going, although I think he would do just fine. He's been such a good boy for the last several months. You can't even imagine. Swayze and I are only going if I can find one more person to go. Nobody from up at the barn can go and while I think Swayze would be just fine by himself, I don't want to push my luck. Gotta run...talk to you later! *miss you!*
