"Ty! The crib go's over there!" Amy said to her husband

"Ok Amy." Ty groaned and moved the crib to the other corner. "There better?"

Amy thought for a moment. "Actually I think I liked it better over there."

Ty glared at her. "Amy."

"I am kidding." Amy held up her hands.

"Yea yea."

Amy smiled. "You want to take a break?"

"Yes."

"Grate cuz I really want some pickles." Amy said

Ty groaned.

Lou looked out the open kitchen window watching her daughters and her son where planning in the play house that Ty and Jack had built for them it even had a little barn and paddock for the ponies Amy had gotten them for Christmas. Looking at her young son who was tormenting his twin sister she smiled he reminded her so much of Peter. "Dinner." She yelled smiling as they ran up to the house. "Mallory dinner!" She yelled up stairs to the girl who had been staying with her over the past year. Her parents where on tour and Mallory was going to school to be a teacher. Living with Lou but was helping her with the kids since Lou had an oil company to run. She looked at her son who was covered in mud. "Peter you're a mess." She looked at his twin sister Sam. "And you got Sam muddy too."

"He was throwing it." Her eldest daughter Catherin informed her

Lou laughed. "Why I am not surprised."

Marion was watching a horse breezing on the track when Tim and Scot walked up, "How's Bolt?"

"His times are improving every day."

"No more problems with his tendon?" Scot asked

"No. And he is loading in to the starting gate now too; all he needed was the blinders off."

"Ah well I will leave you two to your racing I have a few more calls to make." Scot said walking away

"Well I am starving. So let's go get some lunch." Marion said

"Ok let's go." Tim wrapped his arm around Marion's waste. They had remarried about a year ago and had been working together and had produced some wining horses.

Lisa sent Lightning Dexter forward at a lope towed the dude ranch. She was handling it on her own since Soraya was finishing business school in Québec. Lisa had been managing all of Heartland since Peter had died and Lou had taken over his company. It was a lot to manage Heartland and Fairfield and she had given up training horses at Fairfield hiring someone else to do it full time. Reaching the dude ranch in what seemed like no time she tied Dexter to the fence and went in to the lodge to check on Marine who was the full time cook for the dude ranch. Lisa sighed she had days' worth of work to do but only a few hours to do it.

Jack pulled the frozen pizza out of the oven. He pulled it apart and set it on 2 plates balancing them both on his arm and grabbing two bottles of water he walked out to his truck and drove to the dude ranch. Noting that the horses were not in there paddock he figured they were all still out on the trail ride. He sighed he hardly saw Lisa any more she had been so busy. He looked up when he saw the group of horses ride in to the yard. Getting out of the truck he met Lisa and held Dexter while she dismounted.

Lisa smiled. "Hay what are you doing here?"

Jack kissed her. "I brought you some lunch."

"Well thank you so much. Let me un tack these horses and I'll be back in a sec." Lisa left and retuned nearly 30 minutes later.

"Nice ride?" Jack handed her a plate and sat down in the shade.

Lisa sat down next to him and took of her cowboy hat off. "Boring it's always the same thing. I think Dexter has turned in to a trail horse."

Jack smiled. "And that's a bad thing why?"

"It's not bad for a race horse to be good on the trails but I am going to start riding Alberta Dancer I mean she is here and she can't race anymore and I can't breed her so I might as well give Dexter a break." Lisa coughed

Jack looked at her wordily she had been coughing a lot lately. "You should see a doctor about that."

"I'm fine besides I don't have time to. I barley have time to eat." Lisa said kissing Jack and standing up. "I have to get back to work."

Jack sighed watching her walk away. She was working too hard and she was going to crash. She hadn't even noticed tomorrow was there wedding anniversary. That was a new one for Lisa she was normally reminding him and now he would be reminding her.

Lisa walked in to the kitchen the next morning to see Jack waiting for her in the kitchen. "Morning."

"Morning." Lisa smiled and kissed him "I have to go I have work to do." She started to walk away.

Jack caught her hand. "Why don't you be a little bit late? I want to show you something"

"Ok. What?" Lisa followed Jack outside to the waiting truck and horse trailer. "Jack?"

"Get in." Jack got in and started the car
