Happy Birthday Tyler!

Tyler turned 34 on July 10th!!

Happy Birthday to my Husband and Super Dad! 

I made him his favorite supper and a German Chocolate Cake!!

Check out our lil man sitting up all by himself!!

He will be 22 weeks old this Friday.

He can roll over when he wants to, talks alot of baby talk and is always smiling.  He is the happiest baby.  Here lately he has been sleeping all night long.  Between 7-10 hours at a time.  It has sure been nice for me.  I have been quite sleep deprived for 2 years now. 

 Bronc jumping on the trampoline!! He has a blast on the trampoline.  This was Tyler's trampoline when he was little. 

Here is Bronc feeding his lil stuffed sheep.  We had to put a diaper on him and get a bottle to feed him.  He had to have the pillow and covers of course just like Momma when she feeds Tucker..minus the bottle though!!

 Sweet Tuck Tuck.

 Bronc is always crawling on or into things, he is a monkey!

We have been busy just raising kiddos, rodeoing, roping, doing yardwork and all that comes with life.  Looks like we might get to finally move into our house hopefully by the end of summer or early fall.  I am thinking early fall if they keep it up.  They are coming along on Linda's house finally!!

4th of July

I traveled to Abilene for the 4th of July with the boys. Tyler had rodeos and work so we didn't get to bring him. :(

Needless to say it was still a nice visit.  My brother from Colorado came down which was awesome because I hadn't seen him in almost 2 years.  Isn't that awful, I know...I know..I have been busy having babies the last two years and I sure haven't gotten to Colorado as much as I used to. 

Meet Parker on the left, he is my twin sister's boy.  He loves babies and is so good with Tucker...y'all probably didn't know I had a twin sister huh??!!  We are complete opposites and look like sisters, we are fraternal twins!!

The other picture here is my big bro, Bronc and other nephew Caden.

That is my twin there holding Tucker. 

 Mohawk Baby!! Pawpaw in the background eating some grub.

 Bronc loved the swimming pool at Mimi's house!! We had bought one last summer and the dang mice chewed holes all in it, so we didn't get to use it at all.  At least he got some swimming in at my Mom's.

 I know this is a gorgeous picture of me....NOT!!  The sun was in my face and I was trying to take a self portrait of my cute hair! LOL!

 My Big Bro, Love ya Clay!!

 Our delicious feast!!

And of course Cupcakes, Yummo!!

We had a good time. It was really nice to be around all of my family for several days!! 

The Boys

Bronc is on his way to filling Daddy's Boots!!

If Momma ain't happy nobody's happy....this is so true huh!! I put this on Tucker when I am grumpy to warn Tyler.  Haha!!

Bronc was helping Grandma make homemade pudding and was so excited to help hold the eggs.  We told him be careful and don't drop the eggs........oops we dropped an egg....isn't that funny!  He thought he was doing so good and Tucker did something and Bronc raised his arms up and hit it on the cabinet and an egg flew out of his hands!

At least it landed on the rug!!

I have been enjoying doing yardwork this summer as usual!! Here are a few pictures of flowers and such. I still have alot of projects in my brain that I haven't gotten done...wildflower garden, vegetable garden, plant crype myrtles and more.  Some of that will have to wait until next year. 

On our way to the pit to dump tree limbs, Tucker was helping me drive!  It's not that far for those of you concerned, down the dirt road a mile.

Bronc was a big helper to!!

I spy Bronc in this picture, do you!!??

Bronc being silly!!

I love pictures of Bronc reading.  I often find him just hunkered down in a corner or in his room just so absorbed in his books. I have really worked hard to get him to enjoy this...mainly because of how Tyler was in school...dislike, dislike and dislike some more.  I really want Bronc to enjoy learning and so far he does!!

Ode to Goatheads

Ode to Goatheads...Or OUCH might I rather say. 

I don't know if everyone is fighting goatheads this summer, but we sure are.  I go out many early mornings to hoe these mean weeds with the prickly beasts that hurt like a beep.beep.beep#@$ if ya know what I mean.  Yesterday Bronc was playing around the corn field and he was barefoot, like usual.  Well Tyler's Mom goes to get him and he takes off into the grass corner as fast as he can go.  He lands into a patch of mean Ol' Goatheads and stops and then takes off again.  Linda yells stop Bronc, but he didn't, he really didn't know what to do.  So needless to say, he ended up with 6 Big Ol' fat Goatheads in one foot and 2 in the other.  All of them in his foot as far as they could possibly go.  Ouch to Goatheads, poor baby...  We got them out and then he was off again. 

I will continue my mission to eliminate these Mean Ol' Goatheads, but I think they are winning.....

Frenchie

Meet Frenchie...He is my humble steed, my caballo, my trust-worthy partner in crime....not really but my partner in ranch rodeos.

 I love me some Frenchie

Frenchie is a lover not a fighter.

He wants to be everybodys friend, people and horses included.

He respects me, I respect him. 

He listens to me and takes care of me. 

 He is good to me, I love the bond we have formed. 

Horses are amazing creatures, Amen.

I am thankful that we decided to buy him when we left the Tongue River Ranch. 

He has a good home now! 

Isn't he beautiful!! 

I just love me some Frenchie.  I told Tyler he COULD NOT SELL FRENCHIE.  He has my mark on him from here on out. 

HE ISN'T FOR SALE!!  Its about time Tyler listened to me, he always sells the horses I love the most and this one isn't going anywhere anytime soon!!!

And then there is Nacho.  Meet Nacho, Bronc and Tuckers Mexican Pony.  Isn't he a cutie pie.  He is perfect for our boys. 

We love us some Nacho to!!

Girls Ranch Rodeo

Meet the Springcreek Ranch Girls!! Jessica, Romni, Andrea and Me!

We have been going to RCRA (Ranch Cowgirls Rodeo Association) Ranch rodeos since this spring.  We are a new team that we put together this year.  We have done fair for being a new team! We have figured out what works best for everyone and I feel our groove is on now!! 

This picture is from this past weekend at Portales, NM.  We placed 3rd overall in the average and won the tie down/mugging event!  Overall in the current standings we are sitting 3rd in year end points.  We hope to get qualified for the finals soon!! 

I have really been enjoying the rodeos and am feeling more and more confident in what we can do individually and as a team. 

Thanks girls for a fun time and more to come!!
