Rain Rain Rain

It is raining again... the big tank is a foot and a half from being full! Russell & my crazy cousin Kennith Earl are still on the Red Stegall ride. We rode 17 miles on Sunday, I awoke sick as hell Monday, and called Bubba for a rescue! The ride started in Jacksboro and when I talked to Russell they were almost to Azle! They rode in the rain all day today! The barn is almost dried in and will be mostly done by winter!

I found myself!

It has been months since my last post.... Where have I been? Well, I was acting like I had a job as the Rodeo Coordinator.... So now I am running back and forth to the hospital to tend my Nanny! Russell is building me an awesome barn........ I will post pictures soon!

Back from the Carolinas!

Back from a great vacation! After spending a week with my inlaws and my little sister, I am back! We had a great time! I was a bit concerned about the trip, which turned into a bonding experience with my sister and I and also my Mother inlaw and I! We visited my brother-inlaws little church where I learned alot about churches in general, and even more about my family! It was a great experience and I am very THANKFUL! I will post some pictures in a few days! God Bless Us and Keep us!

FLOODED!

Well last weeks storm was gone on Wednesday night, I am now finished cleaning up after it! We had a nice 1 3/4" wading pool in our gameroom! Always wanted an indoor pool, but not in my game room! One hellofa week! Getting ready for a week on the island.... come on July 4, I will be Independent at the island on Lake Texahoma!!! Then it is off to South Carolina to see the inlaws, and then to Mississippi for family reunion!! These people are my husbands stepdads family and the are awesome! We have been going to their family reunion for 7 years, and have not been to either of our own familys reunions for 10 years or more! These people sing, visit and really have a great time!

THAT DAMN ORCHARD!!

Well the Indy race was great, this is what we called "family day" we all had a great time and it was a great race... Danika could have done a little better... but ya cant win them all!

Now lets get to this orchard... a good friend of mine called me a couple of weeks back and said I should get to Lowes, cause they just marked all of their fruit trees 75% off..... Here I go credit card in hand, so instead of a few fruit trees, hell I just bought the orchard!! or 2!! We planted trees for 3 days, got a few more from another Lowes and a little orchard has turned into a orchard with 30 plus trees....

God Bless....

School is almost OUT!

Well, I now have one out for the summer and one more who only has a week!! We found out last night that we will have visitors next week-end! We will also have our final rodeo for the spring series! A couple of weeks off to burn some gas through the boat! Sure was proud of the baby today when she got awards for the most reading points! Smart girl!
Got some extra race tickets in the mail for the summer race, and I was just getting over the spring race! But ready for the fall race!

GONE GARDENING!!

SPRING IS HERE!! The garden is being planted; as with everything my husband has fenced off almost 1/4 acre to have a small garden! So we are going green!! Every evening we are racing down to the garden to water, plant, water, pull weeds, water and water some more! We have planted fruit trees, shade trees, and a wonderful variety of vegetables! We now have 2 baby squash! I was so excited! The tomatoe plants are now blooming! Soon we will have real "fresh" vegetables! So if you come to visit and we are gone.... we are gardening, come down and visit!
God Bless You All and I will post pictures later.... Russell is at the plant store now and we are gonna sneak off early and go gardening! Thank Goodness for call forwarding!!
Don't forget Playday on Sunday! After church, if you have no church to attend, you are WELCOME to attend ours!!

'70 CAMERO

WELL WELL, I would like to share the photos of Russell's new love! I am sure his new address will be at the man cave! Justin is ready to drive it! Russell will soon be working on the motor!!

"The difference between men and boys is the cost of the toys!!" I would never tell him this, but I hope he enjoys it, he deserves it!

Almost Done!

The playday was great! Out of there by 3:30, to Casa Torres having lunch with friends by 4:00!

RACING- no horse only horsepower

Well here we go, today I called and made it final.... We will be camping at Finish Line Campground! After talking to Susan, I just cut the check and mailed it! Over the past few years I have drug my husband to many rodeos and playdays, in return I have attended a few races, but when I did not go, I sent a GREAT standin, my brother! Well this year we have 3 season tickets instead of 2! So yes, I will be the third wheel with Russell & Bubba this year! So now we have 3 weeks to buy the rum and several fruity flavors! Hope you all stop by and visit!

BROTHERS

If my guru brother can do this, so can I. We maybe, if not he will help me.
Anyone wanna know how to get a free GPS, have a good brother, call him ALL the time for directions and after 2 years and several months of overages on his cell phone he will buy you one. It worked for me.
