Summer Fun

Just a slideshow, to show some of our fun moments this summer. We've stayed pretty busy, less vacationing - more running around, working on the ranch, going to lots of rodeos. Trying to go camping, we've packed up our stuff to go alot more than we've actually made it. Lots of stuff that I don't have pictures of.


We also had a fun summer party, we BBQ'd then watched a movie outside, making good use of the white shed in our backyard. Good food & good friends= Good fun!!! We were glad to see those of you that made it, if you didn't maybe next time. Hope everyone's enjoying the hot weather, we love it, & will miss it when it is gone.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY BABE!!!

Today is our 3rd anniversary.

I can't believe how fast time has flown. We have so much fun together & have made so many amazing memories. I love the day's I get to wake up next to my gorgeous baby blue's, and spend the day with my fun husband. I am thankful everyday & feel lucky to have this great guy in my life. He continually teaches me so much, teaching by example of generosity and being a good person. I love that he can have me laughing till I am in tears. It's hard being away from home when I'm flying, but it only makes us appreciate and love eachother so much more!

We often talk about how we have a story for everywhere we go. There is always something funny going on with us.

I have trailed cows up a dark mountain with Hootie a few times, with faint moonlight guiding our way & trusting Hootie and my horse. I have drank water out of a cattle trough because I was that thirsty, although, I swore the whole way up the mountain I wouldn't do it. Hootie was quite amused when I swished the wasps out of my way and cupped my hands in that nasty water. I was sure I'd be feeling like I drank the Mexico water for the next few days.
You can't really plan an adventure with Hootie, because it will usually work out different than planned.
Last week we parked a semi with a sheep trailer in a parking lot we didn't quite fit in & went swimming in Lava's pool, mind you we walked in covered in sheep crap, that's what the shower's are for. Fast forward one week later, our camping plans didn't quite pan out, (finished helping the herder @ 11pm) and we are sleeping in Hoot's truck in that same parking lot.

We have so much fun together, & it's much easier to roll with the punches when he's around. When I want to be ornery about something & he shows up with wildflowers he has picked. Such a sweet, thoughtful guy.
Anyone who has been around us knows Hootie can be quite hilarious, so for people who are always asking ... "Yes, I am laughing all the time", being married to a comedian in his own right. To sound cliche, I do fall in love with my husband more each day...We have a game Hootie likes to play, the answer is- yes Hoot, I love you even more right now.

I can't wait to share more adventures with this cute boy. I look forward to so many more years together and more.

Love you lots, Happy Anniversary!!!

You continue to amaze me and make me laugh!

Isn't he hot, model material ?!?

Bad Luck?

So Hoot & I have a new little pet. If you know us, you know we are more dog people. Till we have kids, we like to have fun with our dogs around. Sunday night I was in the house on the phone & Hootie called me outside to check out a new visitor. There was a tiny, maybe 4 weeks at the oldest, black kitten outside, rolling around playing in our sprinkler. What cat likes water? Apparently, this one. He was so friendly & lovable. He would just follow us around.

Of course, Hootie's dogs were pretty interested, Dash kept trying to pick up the kitten, I'm sure he thought he could get away and bury it. We had to go somewhere & figured the kitten would leave, when we came home he was still here & crying under our car. We thought maybe someone tried to get rid of him, we have a canal across the street.

Hoot said the kitten crossed the highway & he was worried it would get hit, then he started rolling around under the sprinklers, playing in the water. (Maybe he was just really disoriented). Hoot started calling him Evo. (Evo Kinevo, instead of Evil Kinevil). We'll see, the name will probably stick.

My mom brought food over for my kitten, but then I sent him home with her, because I had to be out of town working all week. I went to get him today. The sweet little kitten is hard to find-gone. Now I just have this playful, mean, sharp-clawed, little attack cat. He has a cute personality & a loud purr. So I didn't think I really wanted to have a cat around, but we may. Unless my mom wants to have him. I think Hootie really likes him, probably cause he found him, kind of. I'm sure my dog will hate him, till he gets bigger. He is all black, I had a black cat when I was little & I'm not superstitious, I don't think they are bad luck.

Love this video

I love this video, I think it is so sweet. I can't believe how old Andy Griffith looks, makes me realize that I just keep getting older, too. It's sad to see people age so much. But I think this video is so cute & tender. Just thought I'd share.

Update: Video doesn't work, embedding is disabled. Go to YOU tube & watch Brad Paisley's, "Waiting on a Woman".

I'm out of town all week, when I get home, I'll try and post, maybe add some cute new pics. I've been in Salt Lake, Chicago & now in Milwaukee teaching classes. I think Milwaukee seems like an uneventful place to visit, unless you love beer & want to visit a million breweries. Go Milwaukee Brewers!!!
