Happy Father's Day

I know what you ladies are thinking... & YES... he is the SEXIEST Dad ever!
It's my turn to brag about my hubba bubba!!!! This guy is everything I ever dreamed of in a husband and father. He is loving, playful, a hard worker, a teacher, and best of all a good example. He is honest and trustworthy. He is committed to his family, faith, work, coaching, and most of all his role's as a dad. Several times when I've been in dyer need of a 'date' night. Mike is always the one to say, 'Let's just get a movie and pizza and "chillax" with the kids tonight.' 'I miss them, I never get to just hang with them.' They really are cool kids.... cool in the sense that if we could hang out with anybody, we'd want to hang out with them. They are good, and have good personalities and I believe they got that from their Dad. He is soooooo helpful. I get to workout, grocery shop, run errands... and he not only watches the kids... but while he's home, he'll do the dishes, laundry, scrub toilets & vaccum. He is AMAZING!!! Mike, your a good man. I love you! More than you will ever know. O.F.E.

Cowboy Up

Well Rodeo fans the Eagle Fun Days Rodeo came and went and the Stone Boys made their mark. With significant improvements from last year Riggin placed second! And Wylie placed Fifth! Wylie needed a little more encouragement this year and by encouragement I mean Ashlee and I were forcing him down on the sheep as he cried out,"I Don't Want To!" I jumped in the chute and pushed him down and told him to "hug that sheep" and he said "Run with me Dad!" So I did. I held onto his belt and kept him on top and never let him hit the dirt. I figured whats the sense in ruining him for next year. No tears, just smiles when it was over. Riggin on the other hand stood on the back of the chute and when they said who is next? He said, "I'm Ready!" and so we handed him over and he climbed on his back squeezed tight with his arms and legs, bear hug style, and rode the hair off of that little sheep. He made the whistle and did the Lane Frost double hand wave, just like we practiced, to the crowed. When I can, I will post the video, but I swear you need a rocket science degree to get our video camera to transfer onto the computer. It was a good night. Riggin has to graduate to riding calves next year and Wylie will have a chance to redeem himself on another sheep. Anyway, we got some pretty tough boys, even if we have to force them to be tough.

In true Stone Fashion, the boys could not stay dressed after the Mutton Bustin and went shirtless the rest of the night.
