We had another little celebration for Reagan today. Since the girl is a big fan of the Toy Story movies, it’s not difficult to imagine what the theme for her party was. And, to no one’s surprise, her favorite character is Jessie. You know, cowgirl Jessie? She received a Jessie dress yesterday and she has…

Happy Bir-Th-Anksgiving
Here’s hoping you enjoyed your day with those you love. Here, we not only had quite the feast, but these two beauties celebrated their birthdays together. Happybirthanksgiving!
Making Memories
A day off… kinda. Vernon said he was going to haul hay as long as the ground remained frozen… as it thaws, you start rutting up the road. As it turned out, he managed to haul hay until noon. That gave me time to clean up from yesterday’s big birthday celebration for Victoria’s twin boys….
Pro Photos
You’d think looking at 430 photos would be boring! Not so with this family! Holy cow! I’ve laughed and giggled and snorted and rolled my eyes! Please note: Victoria and her family prefer not to be on the internet. This doesn’t mean they weren’t included! You’ll just have to come to my house to see…
Daisies
I’m a lifetime member. I’ve got sashes and badges and pins. For years my blood ran green. So often I identified myself as a Girl Scout member/First Class recipient/camp counselor/troop leader/cookie manager/service unit manager/trainer and almost trainer-of-trainers… Now, I’m just a grandmother to two adorable Daisies…
#TBT: Here They Come… There They Go, v.2.0
This was first posted September 25, 2008. My sister took this picture for me… I love it. Here we all are, well, my sister and my husband are both following us with the pickup and horsetrailer… But look! It’s US! After a long day of cowboyin’, we ride for the corral, shadowing a puny feeling…

Hard Working Girl
As I looked through photos from the other day… there was one that stood out. This one that Lorelei took. There’s Lacee, holding the heavy pipe that blocks the gate stop Brandon is holding. I asked Tess about it. She said Lacee did it for the whole time they worked. It was her job. That’s…
This
It was going to be a “Pony Day”… Four grandkids riding this smallish pasture, so to let their all the parents go along, that left me and my little bitty partner, Reagan, at home. As usual, I miss being in the middle of the action… but sharing the delight of “Patty Cake” has its own…
Swallowing Stones
We took the time to stop and look into some history. While Vernon had known there was a tiny community in this area once, we didn’t know where certain foundations remained. A relative shared with us where the school house foundation was and, unbelievably, we walked right to it! Great directions, L.! Thanks! You can…
#TBT: Thirty eight
What kids!
Another Visit
This time, a cousin from my mom’s side of the family came by for a visit. He stayed at my sister’s house, but, of course, we shared some good meals and fun stories and a short tour of the country. Now, D. is ten years older than me, so as kids, we didn’t hang around…
