We made tin foil dinners last night and didn’t get to hang around the fire very long before the pivot started spraying us. We were just to the smores part. We had them laying out all nice ready to go on the table when it hit! Ryan and I had soggy grahams!
Emma couldn’t resist the cool down. We didn’t have to worry about putting the fire out!
We got to have cousin Maddie over after Outlaw Days. She is getting to be such a big girl. Rett liked her too, maybe a little too much!
It will be so fun to have cousins the same age!
Here is what Justin’s big owie looks like.
It slowed him down for about one minute! The odd thing is he hasn’t said whether or not he is going to ride again next year, he loves the idea too much! Hopefully for his mothers sake he is done with his bull riding career!
This pretty much sums up our Outlaw Days experience this year!!
It poured rain through the parade, the second the parade was over the sun came out and then the wind picked up! It was SO cold!!
Ash and Justin were determined to ride a calf this year. Ash did ok falling off but Justin got stepped on and tore his pants!! He has a big old scrape and bruise on his leg. He was pretty upset! When I tucked him in I asked him if he felt like a real cowboy now because he has a limp. He said he does not limp, he drags his leg, and he can still beat Jaci running so he would be ok! What a boy!
It really was a fun day, Ash and Emma got to do the hide race and that was really fun! The BBQ was fun, especially because we ate inside!! Hopefully next year will be a little better!
This is pretty much how we dress for swim lessons!
We had 90 degree weather Monday, and the pool was broken,
Tuesday the pool was fixed and it got to 56 degrees with rain!
Wednesday was worse than Tuesday, therefore our entire session was cancelled. Boo hoo! I hope we can make it work for a later session! We are still sad!
We celebrated Ryan’s birthday Telford style on a Sunday. (they were/are always to busy to stop for a birthday so all celebrations happen on Sunday, thank goodness for Sundays!!!) We had a great time on our overnighter. Pride and Prejudice was fantastic! It was a 3 hour + play. That poor Elizabeth had SO many super hard lines, she did so good! It was 10 by the time we got out of the play so we drove to Pocatello and got ice cream and went to our hotel. We slept in, sort of, of course we had Ryan’s morning wake up cell phone call that came in bright and early and right on schedule! We spent the morning shopping for a new gun( which Ryan never found) and then went back to Rupert for lunch at Henry’s. We had a gift card to eat there and it was ok, Ryan’s sandwich was really good. Anyway another family was there that we do business with, we visited with them a minute and I told them we had been gone and it was Ryan’s birthday. They ended up buying our lunch! So I guess we get to go back to Henry’s again to use our gift card! It was really nice of them.
The kids and I got Ryan a present on “35” after every hour of the day (well every hour we weren’t in church) It was a fun little pinterest idea.
The look!
It was a nice day for our Dad! We are happy he is another year older, and wiser!!
Ryan and the kids went out to move the line, I love that he does that for me on Sundays. Ash and Emma tried to move one side by themselves but it ended up in a pinched finger and lots of crying. Imagine that!
Emma still screaming at Ryan to come look at her owie.
This was the final of three brandings this year. The weather was good, a little breezy, but its Southern Idaho! The men finished in record time and the kids got lots of cousin time. It was a good day.
Our Daddy cowboy having fun.
That was a LOT of kids! There were 4 more babies up at the house too! Cedric would NOT get off of that four wheeler to be in the picture.
Rett isnt really sure of cows yet.
He sure can moo though!
Someone found some kind of lizard/ spikey toad creature. It was too creepy for me!
We are all very tired and sunburned tonight! Must have been a success!
Ryan and I are going here for his birthday weekend!
I am so excited, kind of a dirty trick, he loves theatrics, I love Pride and Prejudice! We are staying the weekend away from the farm, he needs some major R&R!
Ashley had cheer try-outs today. We have been practicing and practicing for weeks now. She did a great job. The best part is that she made the squad!! (everyone made the squad this year, lucky us) Now the real work begins!
We had lots of help from lots of Aunts. Aunt April made her cheer bow, Aunt Lain made her cute t-shirt, and Aunt Trish sent us the cheer. Thank goodness we have so much help!
The squad listening to the coach. (Ash also had the most glitter on BY FAR!!) I think I may love this more than she!
