Chapter One Hundred Twenty-Nine
Spring Break – Week Two
A/N – Well in hope you enjoyed some back to Borden time, I know I sure did. I find that writing about the family never gets boring for me and in fact it has become the reason I continue to write this story. I have reached 128 chapters, 656K words, have had over 350 reviews with over 46K views. To be completely honest I am not bragging just overwhelmed with how my story has been accepted. Some may think that it is time to wrap this up but interestingly my readership continues to rise. So for now I will stay the course but I will commit that when this does end I have two other story lines I want to take on, so I won't go away. Let's see how week two of Spring Break goes and expect some more Borden time. Please let me know how I am doing and providing me with your thoughts and ideas. I can't tell you how much they mean to me. Mature Content (I mean they are at Pike River!) Enjoy!
The sun began to peak through the windows as Amy and Ty were lying peacefully in each other's arms. Last night had been perfect. After a romantic dinner on the gazebo the went back to the cabin to see it filled with a dozen roses and assorted chocolates and even a bottle of champagne, with sparkling cider for Amy. It seemed that the kids, with some help from Lou, had set everything up for their night. Amy and Ty made love well into the early morning as their trip had been even better that they had expected. Amy was the first to open her eyes as the sun moved over them. She squinted, took a moment to gather herself and realized that she was laying on top of her husband, their naked bodies clinging as one. She smiled remembering last night and how wonderful he was. Also she thought of her kids and how much effort they had put into their weekend. She moved slightly and immediately Ty opened his eyes. "You aren't going anywhere are you my love?" She smiled and leaned into him for a deep kiss. "I am right where I want to be." They held each other for a while and then realized that unfortunately they needed to get ready to leave. Not missing out on the time they had left they had a shower together that turned into a lot more. As they got in Ty and Amy cleaned each other off but the moves and touches ignited their love once again. As her hand moved over his body he reacted and she decided to take advantage of his full attention. Amy gently stroked him as he leaned back against the shower wall. She kissed his chest and neck as she continued to please him. The night before he had made her feel like she was the only person in the world repeatedly bringing her to climax. She felt she needed to return the favor and by his moans she knew she was. He couldn't remain idle as he returned her with passion and began to move his hands all over her body finally reaching between her legs. He tantalized her as she continued to move her hand up and down smoothly. Their movements became more intense and as usual Amy reacted first by exploding in ecstasy as his fingers performed their magic, She screamed softly, "Oh my god Ty, that feels so good." She shuttered again and increased her movements on his hardening shaft. She knew he was close and began to focus on him with her hands and more. Ty exploded his in his love for her and Amy joined him again. They calmed as they were both flush panting heavily. Holding each other Ty joked, "Well Mrs. Borden, it looks like we need another shower." She laughed smiling into his chest, "But it was worth it." It was a perfect end to their trip as their love was as strong as it had ever been.
The fishing group was early to rise with the smell of bacon, country ham, eggs, biscuits and fresh coffee. As Lyndy and Wyatt walked out from their rooms, they saw Lisa and Casey working on breakfast. Lisa laughed, "Are the boys still out?" Wyatt laughed. "Well we kind of stayed up a little later, seems they had too many smores. I think they will be out for a while longer" He leaned into Lyndy and kissed her forehead saying good morning. Lisa smiled remembering how Ty had always done that with Amy. She always felt it was such a strong sign of his love for her. And now she saw it with the two of them. Casey noticed her expression and whispered in her ear, "Looks familiar." They laughed and carried on as Tim and Jack came back inside as Jack spoke up. "Those boys still sleeping, you know we need to get some more fishing in and I thought you all wanted to go on a trail ride." Lisa scoffed, "Chill out old man the boys will be out soon. Lyndy why don't you and Wyatt grab something to eat and go out on a trail ride. I think the four of us can handle those 5 rascals." Lyndy smiled, "That would be awesome, thank you." Jack tipped his hat, "Well you two deserve it. You have done a great job with them this weekend." As they began eating a sleepy JT and Trent came out hugging everyone good morning. "GG ready to fish?' He laughed as the other three boys came stumbling out. Tim chuckled, "Well you five need to eat up. Can't catch fish with grumbling stomachs." Everyone chuckled as they at heartily. JT noticed that Lyndy and Wyatt were already done and getting ready to head out. "Where are you guys going, trying to catch all the fish before us?" Lyndy smiled, "No Wyatt and I are going for a ride, you guys need to catch ours for us. Remember we need to catch enough for dinner at Heartland tonight when mom and dad come home." He smiled, "Don't worry we got it. You kids have fun and be safe." Wyatt and Lyndy tacked up their horses and headed out with a flask of coffee and some extra biscuits. The planned to ride up to the foothills on a path that she was familiar with. They strolled slowly holding hands and looking over the beautiful scenery. She screamed alarming Wyatt, "I found it, over there." Completely confused he followed her as she sped up cantering over to an outcrop. They dismounted, tied off the horses and got the blanket and goodies. They sat silently, as she finally spoke up, "My dad brought me here once when I was maybe 6 or 7. We came up for the night and mom stayed back with the twins and Maddie, who was still a baby. We sat right here and looked out. He smiled and told me that he and mom had found this place years ago and it was just thiers. Wyatt his look showed me how much he loved her. I wanted to bring you here to show you the same thing. Wyatt Miller, I love you with all my heart, I am sure of it." Wyatt smiled and kissed her deeply, as both of them felt the warmth of their love. It was the same feeling that had had several times before. Much to her dismay he pulled away and whispered, "Well that is good because, I love you more than anything in the world. You are my everything." They kissed again and she frowned, "We better get back, I bet those little guys are giving GG and Grandpa a run for their money." They picked up and headed back to the cabin, smiling and holding hands with no words needed. They were together and in love.
After a catch up call with Amy, Soraya and the kids went back to dinner. They had a day of fun as Soraya felt they deserved it. Then five girls went on a lunch trail ride with a number of the cousins and some of Camilla and Carolines old friends. The Borden girls had really fit in and were having a blast. They talked about their ranch and horses and how their mom was called the Miracle Girl. Addie added that their dad was an amazing vet, known throughout all of Alberta. One of the friends spoke up, "Wait you mom is Amy Fleming, the Miracle Girl. I have seen the video, it was incredible what she did with that horse." Annie blushed, "Yea, she is really amazing and her and my dad are an amazing team. We really love them a lot." Maddie chuckled, "They are cool but that kind of are embarrassing sometimes, with all the hugging and kissing, like in public." Caroline blushed, "I think it is wonderful to see how much in love they are. I like when my mom and dad kiss, it makes happy to see them so close." Maddie frowned, "Well I guess it is kind of cool." The group laughed and set up for their lunch was fun and full of chatter. Back at the house Soraya with help from her mother-in-law and a couple of Dillon's sisters finished up boxing up the final items that she would be sending back. She looked at the three of them and finally broke down. Dillon's mom brought her into her arms, "Soraya, I know you miss her but you have a lot of people here who love you. If you need to ever talk, I am here. I am not your mom but I can sure be there if you need me." One of Dillon's sisters spoke up hugging her too, "And I'll tell you this women is a pretty good mom." Relieved they all laughed and hugged. They headed out to the porch and waited for the group to come back. For Soraya and her girls the trip had been a mix of emotions, but they really enjoyed it. It was good to be back even though part of the reason was not the most pleasant. As they sat drinking coffee they saw the large group of riders heading down the path to the barn. They waved and watched as they untacked the horses and groomed them. Soraya laughed, "The girls have really become more horsey for sure. Those Borden girls have it in their genes for sure." Dillons mom laughed, "Well they have been a delight. Do you think Maddie can stay for a while longer. I love all three of them but she is a joy." Soraya laughed, "A joy is one thing to call her, she is the most rambunctious 10-year-old I have ever met. But I will tell you this, she has really helped Caroline come out of her shell. She has that effect on a lot of people." As the kids walked over after a lot of hugs and chatter, they got ready for dinner. Their trip had been amazing but they were all anxious to get home.
The fish fry at Heartland was a big success. Thay had caught so many they all of the other boys parents and siblings joined them. Lisa and Casey had headed back early to get everything ready. JT and Lyndy were waiting on the porch when they saw their mom and dad pulling down the drive. They stood up and headed out to meet them. JT ran and jumped into his mom's arms as she gave him a big kiss, "Hey buddy, it is so good to see you. How was fishing?" He smiled broadly, "We caught so much that everybody is coming for dinner." Ty smiled as he picked up his little man and walked toward the door. Amy and Lyndy lagged behind arm in arm. Lyndy blushed, "So how was Pike River?" Amy smiled and leaned into her, "Well thanks to you, I hear it was better than we expected. I can't believe you guys called ahead and arranged all of that special stuff. It was perfect. But more importantly, how was the cabin, did Wyatt and you get any time to yourselves?' Lyndy turned red as Amy stopped and gave her a big hug. "Mom, I took him to that spot that dad showed me when I was younger, the spot on the outcrop you guys found and claimed as your favorite up there. We sat, had some coffee and biscuits and just talked, holding each other. I told him the story and that I wanted to be our spot too. It was so wonderful I am still feeling warm inside about it." Amy smiled understanding what she felt and just held her for a while. She finally whispered, "Lyndy, dad and I love you and love Wyatt too. Be patient and continue to learn about each other. You two are amazing together so enjoy it as much as you can, with respect." Lyndy silently understood what her mom had said as they walked into a happy group of people sitting down to eat. Caleb squawked, "It's about time you two we are hungry." The fish and sides were great as the group enjoyed their meal. The next morning, after a final call from England, Amy and Ty got back to work and JT headed over to Trent's to spend the day at the Day Care Center. Lyndy and Wyatt had some horses to work with and snuck in a lunch for just the two of them. They had planned to have a kind of date night, going to a late afternoon movie and having dinner at Maggie's. They wanted to be in early to get enough rest, as everyo9ne was going to the airport to pick up the travelers. Amy, Ty and JT had Mallory and Trent along with Dillon over for dinner. It was a fun evening as JT and Trent went to play and the adults talked about Mallory's second date with Doug over the weekend. Dillon laughed, "So you had a date with your son out of town, how did that go?" Mallory scoffed and blushed a little, "Well a girl never tells and he had to get home to Shawna so it's not like we hooked up or something." Dillon looked at Ty for clarification of "hooked up." Amy smiled, "Dillon what blunt Mallory is saying they didn't do the nasty." The all laughed as Mallory sat flustered, "Wow Amy, crude much. And what if I would like to?" Ty added his thoughts, "Well if you do you better have a place for Trent and Shawna to spend the night." Again Mallory blushed, "You two are something else." They laughed and ended their conversation as the two rascals came storming back into the room. Trent spoke to his mom out of breath, "Mommy can JT stay over?" JT looked over to Amy and she responded, "Sure but don't' forget we are going to the airport in the morning so we can pick you up." The kids high fived and headed back to his room. Mallory smirked, "Well who has some alone time now?" The four adults laughed as Ty squeezed her side and kissed her cheek. Amy took her phone out and texted Lyndy telling her that they would not wait up for them.
At the airport, with signs in hand, the Bordens and Dillon waited anxiously for the travelers. Amy reminded JT for the tenth time that they would be tired and he needed to give his sisters some space. "Remember, they left in the morning England time and will arrive in the morning here. So for them it will be late afternoon." He agreed still not fully understanding but happy to see his sisters. Ty looked at the board and noticed that they had landed. They all strained to see them and Lyndy was the first to see Annie. "There they are she screamed." They all hooted and hollered and held up their signs. The kids ran to their parents for hugs and then they went to their siblings. After Dillon hugged his two girls he gave Soraya a big hug and kiss. He know it was a difficult trip for her as he whispered in her ear, "I love you Raya, I am so happy you are home." Amy and Try noticed their embrace and took all of the kids to the luggage carousel to give them some time. Dillon had filled them in privately on some of the things she had to do and understood their need to be alone for a minute. Led by a wired Maddie the kids found their bags and pointed out Soraya's for Wyatt to get. They headed to the vehicles and decided to go to lunch at Maggie's before heading home. Amy called ahead and had Lou get a big table ready to them. Soraya joked, "Well I have to admit one thing, "I didn't miss the food over there, can't wait for some vegetarian chili." When they got to Maggie's Lou had a table for the four adults and one for the kids a ways away whispering to Amy, "I thought a little distance wouldn't be too bad." Amy and Ty immediately started asking questions about the trip and how the kids were. She smiled, "The kids had a lot of fun and Dillon's family love them, especially you know who. Dillon she really bonded with your mom and they promised to write each other. It was kind of cute." She got silent, as Amy grabbed her hand, "So how are you. Dillon filled us in on some of the things you needed to do." She smiled meekly, "It went well. Dillon your mom and sister were with me the whole time and were wonderful." She hesitated as she choked up a little, "Your mom told me that she knows she isn't my mom but would always be there for me, whenever I needed her. The trip to city hall was Ok but the trip to the hospital was a little more stressful. We had a lot of things to settle up and it brought back a lot of memories. I miss her so much" She leaned into Amy and wept quietly. At the kids table Camilla noticed her mom and she really wanted to go over to be with her. Lyndy lightly grabbed her arm and whispered, "I know it is hard but leave her be for now, I think my mom has it. She will need you guys later for sure." Camilla smiled and shook her head yes, clutching Lyndy's hand. They finished lunch and headed home. Amy and Ty had three tired girls to tend to. They were going to try to keep them up to get acclimated to the time changes but knew it would be tough.
That afternoon Amy and Ty went back to work as Lyndy and Wyatt kept the three travelers active. JT suggested a trail ride so the six of them saddled up the horses, grabbed some hot chocolate and cookies and headed out to the ridge. Running on adrenaline Annie, Addie and Maddie had a great time with their two brothers and sister. Lyndy and Wyatt made sure they kept up the questions and JT really had the entire group laughing and joking around. He asked, "So was the farm nice and did they have horses?" Addie answered, "Except for no mountains, the farm is beautiful. There are several houses because four of Dillons siblings are in the business. Annie continued, "The mainly raise dairy cattle and have several hundred head and a huge milking barn. They supply milk and cheese for a lot of the local grocers and even a chain of stores under the family name, Walsh Dairy Farms." Maddie continued, "The also grow several different crops that they sell too. It is pretty impressive and as big as Heartland, maybe a little bigger." They all sat listening to the three of them enjoying the day, cookies and chocolate milk. After a few seconds Annie continued, "Oh and they have a barn with a number of family horses. We got to go on several rides with a bunch of Dillon's nieces and nephews. The entire family was so nice. His parents and a couple of the other family said they hoped to be able to visit to see our farm and business. We told them all about you guys and they all know of the Miracle Girl." Addie added looking at Lyndy and Wyatt, "And they asked about you two and the whole living in a house in bedrooms next to each other and being together," raising her hands making quotation marks. "Don't worry we told them it was cool and how mom and dad have guardianship rights." Maddie jumped in and said proudly, "But except for Lyndy, which would be weird, we consider you a real brother and that we love you a lot." Taken aback by her emotional comment Wyatt reached over and gently grabbed Maddie's hand. "You guys, that means a lot to hear you say that and I feel the same to all of you." To lighten the moment Lyndy spoke up, "I think mom and dad had a great weekend at Pike River. The dinner we set up under the gazebo went really well. Joanna's son said they couldn't keep their eyes off each other and showed up for a late breakfast before they headed home." Addie, scoffed, "TMI Lynny." They all laughed but felt warm inside about the love their parents shared for each other. Deep down each of them were proud of their parents, especially when a lot of their friends parents were divorced are fought all the time. Lyndy and Wyatt talked about their date briefly but filled everyone in on Mallory's second date with Shawna's dad. "Seems they are really getting along well. JT added, "I know Trent really likes him and Shawna is pretty cool and nice." Annie tickled him swooning, "So JT do you like her?" He looked at her sternly, "A guy can like a girl as a friend and that is what she is." The group burst out laughing as he huffed. Wyatt took him on his lap and whispered, "Don't listen to them, girls are silly." He smiled and gave him a brotherly hug. Lyndy melted as he saw them together reinforcing how wonderful Wyatt was. After some more chatter they all headed back to the ranch. They spent some time settling the horses before they headed to Heartland.
At the fish fry the active chatter continued but Amy and Ty saw that the travelers were fading fast. Soon after dinner they went home and three of them were told to go to bed and that everyone else would handle night chores. Just before Ty and Amy went to join the three others in the barn they peaked in their rooms. Maddie was out like a light, still I her clothes. They walked in as Ty picked her up, Amy fluffed the bed before he laid her back down. Amy tucked in the covers as they each kissed her on the forehead. She never moved. They stood silently looking at her as Amy whispered, "Look at how cute she looks and so grown up. I love her so much." Ty pulled her closer as they stepped out silently. The twins were also sound asleep but had managed to put their pajamas on. Ty and Amy went up to tuck them in and kissed them each on their forehead. Annie mumbled incoherently, "Love you mom and dad." They stepped out and headed to the barn feeling a lot of love and happiness that the three of them were back. As they entered the barn, JT was giving direction to Lyndy and Wyatt on how to groom Blaze and Triumph. They stood back as listened to him, "You guys, mom likes Blaze to be groomed like this. It is important that we do it the same way she does. And Triumph, we always need us to add some banana to his feed, he loves it." Lyndy laughed, "We got it, are you the ranch boss now?" He huffed, "Well someone has to be in charge." They walked into a laughing Wyatt and Lyndy and a focused little man. She hugged him and helped him with Blaze. They worked quietly until Lyndy spoke up, "Mom how is Mrs. Walsh, we saw you talking with her. Annie said the time in England was hard for her." Amy smiled and had the three kids sit with her on a hay bale while Ty stood behind her. "Well there was a lot to do and some of it was not pleasant. Soraya never really had a dad and her and her mom were very close. Losing a parent is hard and there is a lot to do to settle things up. I was lucky in a way because when my mom died I was young and all of that was handled by GG. But she is Ok and said that your three were a big help and a lot of support." They sat for a moment as JT spoke confidentially, "Well you have told us to be nice and to support people." He hesitated, "Daddy, I have been thinking about this but if anything happens to Grandma Lilly, we will all be here for you, mom and Max too." The comment caught Ty off guard as Amy looked at him overwhelmed with the comment. He gathered himself and pick his little boy up, "Thank you JT, I have no doubt you all will be. You know we have been thinking. Grandma is doing well and would you like to come with us to Lyndy's competition and spend some time with her. I bet if anyone can get her to go to it that would be you. What do you say?" He smiled and looked at Wyatt as he shook his head yes. He hugged his dad tightly, "That would be cool."
It took a day or two but the three travelers finally recovered. JT called them the zombies as they fought off the jet lag from the trip back. Amy and Ty were extremely busy the remainder of the week but made sure they caught up with each other during the day and also touched base with the kids. Since they were so busy they worked on Saturday but promised themselves and the kids that Sunday would be family day as they got ready to go back to school. Lyndy, Wyatt, Haley, Rusty, Annie and some of the fledgling trainers continued to hone their skills. Ellory Whitepath had been a lot of help and each of them also spent some time with her. Amy was next to her as they watched Annie with a pretty simple horse as she spoke up, "Ellory you have been a lot of help for us, we really appreciate you coming here over break. Your dad always spoke highly of you and I see a lot of him in you. He was a great man and an even better friend. Do you know he helped Ty and I reconnect after a time apart." She laughed, "Are you kidding me he talked about you two all the time along with your mom." She put her head down, "I know that they had a connection Amy and he really loved her." Amy smiled, "I know, I realized it when I spent a weekend with him so he could help me with Spartan. All we did was go for walks." She laughed, "And hit golf balls, I really miss him." Amy pulled her in for a hug as she missed him too. After a moment, Ellory spoke up, "Look at her Amy, my god she does the same things you do. I am sure she has the gift and will take her skill to a very high level. I see it with Lyndy too, but with her I just see a little difference." Amy smiled, "Yea, Georgie and I have been watching both of them and Lyndy is amazing but she has her dance as well. With Annie there seems to be a little more detail in her approach. Look how she is positioning herself with the horse. That is something that is not taught, it comes from inside." Ellory laughed, "Amy it comes from you." They both smiled and continued to watch the young trainer. Amy thought about how amazing Victor's daughter was and couldn't wait for her return in the summer. Deep down she kind of hoped that one day she would come back permanently. She smiled to herself as she dreamed about the future with her as a part of the team. She jumped when a pair of arms came up from behind her. She laughed, "Ellory, I hope that is my husband." She giggled, "You two are crazy. I guess I am happy my dad got you two to get your acts together years ago." Ty looked at her confused as he kissed his wife's forehead. Amy chuckle and whispered, "I'll fill you in later."
Ty and Scott set a meeting up with all of the vets at the clinic along with Amy to go over what they should present at the spring lecture at the University of Calgary, scheduled the week before they were heading to Denver for Lyndy's competition. They had always mainly focused on horsemanship with Amy but the staff at the university recommended they spend the session on the veterinary side of their business, especially surgeries and non-traditional healing methods. That was where Amy came in. Scott started the conversation, "Well we have videos of many of the more complex surgeries so I think we share several and take the time to talk through them. My first suggestion is the complicate abdominal surgery we did a while back and maybe the difficult bone displacement. In most cases those horses would have been put down." Cass added, "Since we are looking at alternative things, how about the acupuncture that Mandy and I have done." Ellie and Steven also had ideas on surgeries they had done also. Ellie spoke up, "We need to make sure we include other animals as well. Ty didn't you work on an alpaca once?" Ty laughed, "Yea, but no video, but Soctt I know we have several beau vine surgeries we can present." Scott laughed, "Ty we should talk about the cat the you tried to find the penny in her stomach. Guys he kind of freaked out." They all laughed and Ty got red faced, "It was like my first surgery man, ease up." Amy consoled him cuddling into his shoulder, "Well I remember when you saved Lobo after he was shot. You were amazing and the doctor filling in for Scott was very impressed." Scott scoffed, "Ok I will give you that one." They continued to discussed several surgeries than took the time to decide on seven of them. Three horses, one beef cow, one pig, one dog and one cat. Amy listened and asked, "So where do you need me." Ty answered pulling her in again, "Well I think you should talk about the post-surgical treatment you did on the three horses, especially the horse where Cass did the acupuncture on. As I recall you were a little pessimistic." Amy replied back quickly, "I had all the faith in Cass and the work she was doing. It was new and at the time I didn't understand but she rocked it and I was sold. The horse's owners were unbelievers as well but after the saw the results they brought another horse back for it." Cass laughed, "After meeting the one owner, I felt like he needed it as well." They all laughed remembering how candid Cass could be." Mandy had an idea, "Amy has a great point. If we have the time we should include the post operative consultation we had with owners, especially the ones that were not totally onboard. Scott you remember the cat that the owners just said to euthanize but we convinced them. If I remember that cat lived to be 19!" Everyone agreed and Ellie volunteered to put the 7 surgeries together and make a thumb drive copy for everyone to look over as well as sending one to Dr. Molder from the university. They ended and set a meeting on the Monday before the lecture to finalize their presentation. Amy and Ty left hand in hand heading back to the Miracle Ranch. The remainder of Spring Break was as promised, full of work and a lot of fun. The kids were having a great time hanging out with friends. Annie and Addie had a trail ride and lunch with their friends from school, including the happily accepting Camilla. Even Troy joined in on it and Annie couldn't help but see them getting a little closer. She looked at Addie smiling as they both knew the other's thoughts. Bella poked Addie, "Will you two stop doing that twin thing, it's kind of creepy." They laughed and headed to this picnic site. Maddie and her friends convinced Wyatt and Lyndy to take them into town for lunch one day at Maggie's and a movie. While the younger kids were having a blast, Lyndy and Wyatt headed out to a spot near the river to have some time together. As they sat on the river bank they sat closely catching a kiss now and then. She nuzzled herself into his strong arms. She whispered, "This is nice, being alone with you, I can't wait to go out tonight with you." She leaned up and kissed him deeply as their hands explored each other's bodies. Their closeness made the connection stronger and their barriers go down a little. They both continued to fight their urges but the more they were together the harder it was to resist moving forward. JT was as usual always with their friends a lot but also made sure he hung with his family. But most important for him would be his daily calls to Lilly. He encouraged her to fight hard and when he told her he was coming with them to Denver, she was ecstatic. She laughed, "Well, I guess I better because I am going with you to see Lyndy." He shouted with glee grabbing the attention of Amy and Ty, "That is awesome." He hung up as they came rushing into his room. Before they could talk he yelled out running into his dad's arms, "Grandma is coming to the competition." They all smiled as Amy joined din on the hug.
As promised the day before going back to school was all about the family. Spring Break was full of a lot of fun and adventure but today was about the family Borden. After a great breakfast with a lot of talk of returning to school, the family left on a long trail ride ending with lunch at the old jumping course that Ty had built. They visited the cemetery on the way to pay their respect to the past. Amy talked about some of the stones the kids were unfamiliar with, Aunts, uncles great grandparents and GG's sister. Although some of the kids had heard the stories before they still listened in silence. JT spoke up, "Daddy I am sorry you don't have a family cemetery like this." He smiled with a tear in his eye picking him up, "Buddy, this is my family." They continued their ride and had a great picnic. While they sat talking Addie spoke, ""I think this place needs a little sprucing up. Maybe in a few weeks we can get a group of people and clean this place up. I bet a lot of our friends would love to use it." They all agreed and set the plan in place. Amy and Ty sat close silently marveling at their kids. After the horses were settle the kids went to chill before dinner. They spent some time getting their school stuff ready as girls decided what to wear. JT whispered, "They are so weird, already picking out their clothes? I just grab something and put it on." Wyatt laughed, "Don't worry pal, one day we both may understand why." As she finished Lyndy came to show Wyatt what she picked out. He whispered back to him, "Follow my lead." After everything was ready, Amy called the kids to dinner. It was a family favorite, Mac'n'Cheese with hot dogs along with some salad and fruit. As they ate they all talked about getting back to school. After dinner Amy and Ty cleaned up as the kids got ready for bed. When they finished they made their rounds. When they went to see JT, he was just hanging up with Lilly. Ty smiled, "How is grandma doing?" He gave a thumbs up and tiredly laid back in his bed. They kissed him good night and it seemed he was sleeping before they left the room. The twins were actively chatting when they came in. They told them about Camilla and Troy and what a cute couple they made. They settled and Amy and Ty kissed them both. After good nights they went to see Lyndy and Wyatt who were just getting ready to go to bed. Wyatt was already headed to his room as they entered. Their kiss had already happened so he was relived. Amy was getting ready as Ty sat in bed watching her mesmerized by how beautiful she was. She smiled as she came into bed with him and he immediately grabbed her for a deep and passionate kiss. She smiled and whispered, "Hmm, I guess you are not ready to go to sleep." He slipped his hands under her top taking it off. She received his answer as he began to play and have some fun. Their night was just beginning.
