My Favorite Things Part 1

This is Berts first calf, he and Jay took it and held it down togeather. Bert (Dad) is looking forward to the day that all 5 boys will be "throwing"!
This is my City girl she got to branding a little late she was having fun with her cousins in El Paso. We were so glad to get her back Especially Austin who learned how to clap while she was gone. She didn't take long sitting on the sidelines she was in helping the Cowboys as soon as she got out of her ballet shoes and into her Wranglers. One tough Gal!
And here we have the Brains of the operation, he was with his sister in El Paso and even though he is quiet he was well missed and it will be a long time before his Mom lets him go again. He actually catches the calves this way. He is a thinker!
This is the Palomino "O" and Bert doing his Job, on Ansons horse Anson says because he is "whetto" he gets the Palomino Dad is just using him.

Why these are my Favorite Things...

Jay and Bert are working togeather and helping Dad, Rebecca is a sweet heart and helps to even the level of BOY arround and she loves her brothers and is so sweet with Austin, And I love to be with Bert and my kids... really it is what life is all about!

My Favorite Things Part 2

Bobby found a new friend and loves all things Boy, He was made for the big outdoors and has the prsonallity to survive any thing. He saw a deer and an unidentifed running object, we are hoping his new friend Lou Lou (the Dog) will be able to track the U.R.O. soon. He wanted to ride the cows but will settle for maybe next year.
Father and Son Team Work, Jay is actually a huge help and is learning some good life lessons, not to mension a little about the the differance between boys and girls with the cattle any how...
Well we have started a tradition of taking a final picture of the Cowboys that help with Branding and hope to line the walls of the ranch houses and the Cabin with them. We were glad to Have Uncle Carlos back with us this year!
Bert made this for me and I just love it.

These are my favorite things because well Bobby just suprises me all the time with how big he is and how he just is growing into a sweet little man. Jay and Bert (Dad) Some times Jay has a hard time but when he is on the Ranch he is completly in his element and is such a help and a he amazes me with all he can do. I love to see how the kids have grown each year and who was at Branding. And I love this bridle holder rack 1 because Bert made it for me and 2 because it is so cute and 3 because Bert made it!

All in all I love going to the Ranch there is no other place in the world that I can be togeather with my kids and Bert and fell so at home with out all the worldly worries, I love Mexico and home but there is not so many things that need to get done, people to see and places to go but when we are togeather on the Ranch. It is in a way Quiet... if you can imagine that with 5 rowdy boys.

All my ducks in a row!

Me and the Man

All the men in my life

Well it has only taken 10+ years to do this but we took some family pictures! I kept on saying lets wait till I am not pregnant or not, well looking like I just had a baby, the day was a little crazy and Bobby was terrible so his 2 year pictures will be later, but Laurice did a great job ... Thanks girl! Its not easy getting all those kids looking at once we were worried about Austin but he was practically perfect in every shot.

Meet the Family

Bert and Rebecca after their Daddy Daughter date. Rebecca-9 is definitely a lone star girl, a rose among the thorns... our little angel the boys like to call her. She loves to sing, play her flute and piano, design clothes, read and of course be in charge. She is a huge help and is starting to grow up we can still talk her into pig tails on occasion but I have a feeling it won't last much longer.

Jay-8 loves to be outside he loves his horse "Pony" and his BB gun riding all horses and Motos. He rides his horse like Zorro he will stand up and fall into the saddle I am just waiting for the day he tries to do it from the roof. He also rides it back wards and on his knees, this is the same horse that recently bucked off a cowboy the other cowboys tease him and tell him Jay is just calming the Pony down for him. He is a great help to his dad at home and the ranch. He takes after his Uncle John and is a mighty hunter he has killed two trophy size jack rabbits and a few rare birds. He is one Tuff guy and we love him.

Bert-6 well you may have seen him on TV as Captain Carlos but we just call him Bert to keep the fans away Captain Carlos also eats his vegetables so we can throw the viewing audience, because our Bert would ratter do any thing then eat a "deguststig" piece of smelly broccoli. Bert loves to watch TV only if he is the one holding the remote and he loves to play his guitar. He is our little jokster and has a lower tolerance of pain then any one I have ever known. He loves to go to Manzana Verde and pick out a treat he loves his candy and is always making us laugh.

Anson-4 is so sweet he is quiet as a mouse and he loves to think. He is our little whetto and he is all Anderson he looks just like his Uncle Jeffery and could easily go live with him and fit right in. We love that he is always smiling and is so reasonable. He loves the color orange, playing in the dirt, helping Mom in the kitchen and playing with his friends, he loves to snuggle and hang out with his cousins he has a special place for his whetta cousin Madeline. He is also wondering when he is going to be big like Dad with mussels. I think Uncle Jeffery is wondering the same thing... Sorry Anson Blame Grandpa Johnny.

Bobby-2 Terrible Two in all his Glory . He loves cars, trucks the dirt and going to exercise with Mom only because his friends are there, he loves to go with Dad and most of all getting what he wants when he wants it. We are all very happy to say he is Potty Trained and loves to pick out his chones. He also thinks he needs to wear a swimming suit every day. He is a pretty cute kid he wants to be just like the big boys and hates to be left out. I love to sit and talk with him he always surprises me with the things he says he is a smart little cookie who has recently started making his own peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Austin-11months is so cute he is starting to stand independently... for a few seconds. He is a little wirery guy who has the sweetest smile with his two BIG teeth in front he loves to eat and un load my kitchen cupboards, scatter sweeped up dirt piles, and unfold laundry he is with his mama all the time helping her not to take life with out a maid too seriously. He has the sweetest laugh and loves to try and run away when ever he is naked, almost like a caged animal when the diaper is off he is free at last.. free at last! He likes to climb up stairs and has not fallen down yet ( I may have to Blog his first fall) but he sits at the top and cries when he wants down. He loves bath time and being outside he is keeping us busy and we love him for it!
