Jr Range Riders Rodeo

We are excited to participate in this year's Jr Range Riders Rodeo, our first! They have Poles, Barrells, Break-away roping and Goat Tying. We will attempt the goat tying but we have not practiced in over a year. This is the one event Brooke will "allow" Henry to participate:
1) he's lazy and she wants to go fast....fast...fast... - and -
2) Brooke can jump off him and he'll stand there until she's done and can climb back on

The rodoe is on Sunday at 2:00. Buckles go to the highest points in each age group and then prizes for 1-3. Blaine will be participating too...I will run him around each event on Henry. He is very excited!

Have a great week!

Bushland Bound

We discovered higher than expected cost with our 20 acres in Canyon. Just to bring electricity down the road 1/4 mile was over the top ($7 grand). So we opted out of that!

We just put a contract on 10 acres in Bushland off Quail Springs in Outpost Ranches. We are excited to be one of 4 homes on this street that are 10 acres each and our neighbor to the south has a barn and horses too. We are close to the end of the cul-de-sac, which will be great for kids riding their bikes...not that I expect much of that from Brooke.

Diamond, Henry & Paizley "Blaze" will be excited to see some land and get away from "stall" life at Range Riders. It's been a blessing to have that as an option this winter but they are spoiled rotten and feeling way too FRISKY! We almost had a "HENRY" Rodeo when he decided to dang near jump the fence because he thought I was leaving him in the round pen! Spoiled I tell you, Henry is just a pet and if you ever want to get rid of apples, come on out and watch him eat one in a single bite!
