4-H

Zoey, Maddie and Emma Claire joined 4H this year.  We have a great county extension agent and a great county club.  They are learning so much and I am excited about all the opportunities they will have through 4H.

The girls participated Food & Nutrition and did really well.  They both learned about portion sizes, food safety, a healthy plate, and knife safety.  Zoey received 3rd place with her Chicken Noodle Soup and Maddie received 2nd place with her Colorful Pasta Salad.  

Along with cooking skills, they are learning more about serving others!  They did a great job serving refreshments to everyone at the food show.

Cousins….

We had the privilege of keeping sweet Olivia for a week while Amber and Jake's house was being remodeled.  She did great and kept up with all our crazy happenings.  She went to a 4H meeting and Tuesday/Thursday school with us. 
Image
Nana came to help while Olivia was with us and took Maddie, Emma and Olivia to her house Wednesday evening.  The rest of us joined them on Thursday for a weekend filled with fishing, adventures and birthday celebrations.  Hudson even joined us so all of the cousins were together!

Going out on Dado's boat is the best. 
Image
Image
Playing in the lake while waiting on Dado is lots of fun. 
Image
Image
It was still warm enough for the kids to swim and they had a blast.

Image
We celebrated Nana, Memo and Olivia's birthdays!

Happy 5th Birthday Sawyer!

This boy sure is a blessing and brings joy to my heart.  He is smart, funny, and a really hard worker.  He loves his Papa, playing in the dirt, and using his Papa's tools to build things.

Rory's excited about his brother turning 5!

Happy Birthday Sawyer Man!

Double Digits….

It is truly hard to believe that our baby girl is 10 years old!  It am so blessed to be her Mama and watch her grow into a beautiful young lady both inside and out.  She loves all things art, eating ice cream, watching Dr. Quinn, and collecting treasures.

Happy Birthday Zoey!

West Texas Fair Goat Show

Maddie loves her Mimi and showing her goats.  She had a blast at the West Texas Fair and did really well.  The other kids love going to the goat shows to support Maddie and play in the dirt!

Happenings….

These past few months have been a blur around the ranch.  We have been busy remodeling the trailer house and hope to move in sometime in the next month.  I am really excited about moving and already have our school room and all the bedrooms set up in the trailer house.  Between school and remodeling the trailer, I don't seem to have much time for anything else so my blog has suffered greatly.  I down loaded all my cell phone pictures so I could at least post a few things from this summer that I would like to remember someday.  

Maddie loves her PopPop, her goats and riding horses.  She has spent a lot of time with PopPop this summer learning about horses and life.  She spent an entire week with him right before school started and I only saw her once the entire week.   
Image
Zoey, Sawyer and Rory all took turns riding the horse with PopPop too!
Image
Image
Image
This boy loves his Papa, working with his Papa, wrestling with his Papa, using his Papa's tools and anything else that includes his Papa.  Before school started, he was all excited about school but after one day, he was done!  I plan to work with him some but he won't officially start school until next year!  He is to busy working and playing to sit still long enough for school!
Image
Emma Claire turned 7, learned to ride her bike, and lost a few more teeth this past month!
Image
We celebrated Emma's birthday with Granny and Grandpa Sigmon and Nana.  We had lunch and she got to go shopping at Wal-Mart with Nana!
Image
Image
As I posted in July, Nana and Dado have moved to Lake Whitney.  We finally got to spend some time at their new home and the kids loved it.  Swimming, fishing, golfing, and riding in Dado's "super fast" boat sure is a lot of fun.  
Image
Zoey found this cool spear head in their back yard.
Image
Little Miss Evelyn Aubrey was born on Wednesday, August 26!  Emma Claire was super excited because her birthday is the day after hers. We are so excited for Katie and Travis as they start this new adventure known as parenting!
Image
The kids spent several nights outside in Maddie's tent until Ellie, our dog, tore a huge hole in the side.  They love camping out as long as they can watch a movie on the iPad!  
Image
We had a pretty mild summer as far as injuries are concerned until Sawyer hit Zoey in the mouth with the end of the water hose.  Apparently playing in the water with my children is a dangerous sport.  Zoey had to have two little stitches and she handled it well.  
Image
The kids sure love Baby Evie.  They all took turns holding her, well all except Rory and I just don't trust him to hold a tiny baby!  
Image
Image
Image
Image
That about sums up the end of our summer and now we are looking forward to cool weather and football this fall!  

Blessings,
