Although he was an elder now Dante still loved to play his guitar!

Grace was developing a relationship with Cedric.

Heather was taking a nap when she realized it was time for her birthday. It didn't seem to bother her to get caught in her underwear though.

Darlene and a random girl from school were the first to celebrate.

Then Dante joined in.

David missed having a horse around. He had tried to adopt a new one but they wouldn't allow him because the other animals had been taken away. Darlene had been working part time and she was willing to help him out with buying a new horse because she knew how much it meant to him. So he checked in at the Equestrian Center every so often. One day he saw a pretty mare who was a purebred Morgan and yet was a bargain at only a few hundred. When he asked the owner why the man said he just needed a new home for her and that she was a little feisty so he lowered the price to help her find a new owner. David was thrilled and bought her.

He named her Hershey because her coat was a chocolate brown.
He found out soon that feisty meant aggressive when she threw him off on the way home and then kicked him after the got home and he tried to take her saddle off. He was determined to win her over though.

When he got in he found Keira and Sawyer were wrapped up in each other ...

Dante was teaching Grace to walk and Heather had been called into work.

He told Darlene about the mare and took her out to show her where the mare was grazing. He didn't mention her tendency for aggression though.
Only a couple days later it was time for Grace's birthday.

Cedric stood by as she aged up.

She's a cute kid.

For some reason David was the only one to celebrate even though others were in the room.

A few minutes later Cedric came to life.
