Champ

Congrats to my oldest son and his partner,Skeete. The won Region X Team Roping. Now they get to go to State and hopefully Nationals. We are really proud of them, they are both becoming great young gentlemen.
Sterlin was also chosen to compete in the olympics for Region X and Skeete was chosen to compete in the truck pull for Region X. We are making some great memories.Can't wait till June to post more pics.

Karate

Just wanted to say congrats to my youngest son TJ. He went this past Saturday to the dojo and tested for his yellow belt.We did not know what to expect since this was our first test,but I was pleasantly surprised. There were many there and it is such a family event.It was great to see the kids being encouraged and lifting each other up. It is not a competition between the kids but an individual one that everyone wants you to do well on. I wish we could have stayed longer to see some of the higher belt test but we had to get back to the roping. I will try to post some pictures later.

Good Job TJ !

NO I DON'T WANT TO

I have had a severe case of the I don't want to's lately. Maybe it's spring fever or lazy days , I just don't know. I just want to hang out. It will all still be there when I get ready right? Well you know it will but it will be bigger and require even more work,so I am trying to get motivated. What do you do to get motivated when you have days like this? Come on share, I need to get over it!

Spring

Spring has come. The weather is warming up and flowers are blooming.The wind is blowing but at least we have had enough rain that the sand is not blowing around with the wind. There are some around here that gripe about the wind , they don't even have a clue. I can remember the sand blowing so hard that it would be blackout conditions where you could not even see anything. The first time my husband saw it, he thought it was the end of the world.LOL Anyway, lets enjoy this time, get outside and enjoy all the new things sprouting.Enjoy what God has given us.

Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and it was a good one. I chose not to do any work yesterday,so after the boys were through with school, I took the rest of the day off. Then last night my mom and I went to town and ate at Applebees then went to the local community theater. "Steel Magnolias" was playing. I have never been to a small community play before but it was a treat. They did a really good job and we really enjoyed it. I love that my mom and dad are so close we can do things together. My dad was in the roping pen with Tommy and the boys when we left. Wish we got to see my brother more but at least we keep intouch. Family is such a blessing!!
