The Weekend in Pictures

It was a full weekend for the Marangella family. On Friday evening Max had flag football which he loves, it's just one more sport for him to excel at or so he tells us! On Saturday we took the kids up to Bumble Bee, AZ (population: 20) and spent the day at Bumble Bee Ranch as guests of HopeKids. If you're into horses, cactus and long dirt roads this is the place for you! It was a bit rough for this New Yorker but the kids had a great time riding horses, taking a spin in a Hummer, and getting a little target practice in (yikes!). I was able to sit quietly in the sun with no other sound then the thoughts in my head, what a great day!

On Sunday we celebrated Michele’s birthday (I have been threatened so I cannot share numbers…), Happy Birthday Daddy!

Max meets Bucky! His first ever horseback ride.

The family horse expert. Hundreds of dollars in lessons and yet they still lead her around by the reins.

Armed and dangerous.

Out for a ride in the country.
