Life got the best of me....

It's been awhile..we had a wonderful Mother's Day with the family. Our puppy is doing great and she is starting to learn new tricks! My nephew's baseball team went undefeated and playing in a Tournament tonight! I am so proud of him. Brooke entered (last minute decision) in the Randall County Playday on Sunday. Now we know it's the 3rd Sunday of every month and a great Playday! She got 4th place in Barrels - would've been 1st but she knocked over the last barrel and had 5 pts added on her time so she still took 4th with adding 5 pts. Way to go Brooke and Diamond! He is an amazing horse! We are trying out new bits and finding out lots of new things in this rodeo life...we may need a different type bit for Poles...he gets so excited once he runs barrels - she needs a lot of bit to help control him!

Memorial Day - planning on staying home for the long weekend! Can't find the energy to travel to Mom's and Jeff is finally finished with the Carlsbad, NM job next week! We were hoping to have him home during the week all summer to only find out bad news last week - he was chosen to help run a crew on a Maintenance Line in Hobbs, NM that runs all the way to Midland. You can imagine how bummed we both were...It's part of it but ready for some more time with him this summer! I am happy to have the horses in our lives because it keeps us busy doing something we all love to do!

I've decided to also let Blaine play T-Ball through YMCA. He really enjoys to play and is pretty good at hitting the ball. Callie is a great in the outfield...she brings us back the ball!

Oh, and the toothfairy visited our house again last week...Brooke lost another tooth! The school is raising money for the music program and she gave all her tooth fairy money to her class so I matched her contribution! If they raise the most money, they will get to throw a PIE in the Principal's face! She's up for the challenge! Sorry Mr. Hamil! Only 7 more days left in school! Ready for Summer!
