This week has been back to school. KyLeigh is a second grader, Shad is a Fifth Grader, and Dixon a jr, and Casy the Science Teacher, with his newly acquired masters.
KyLeigh is so excited, she could barely go to sleep on Tuesday night after back to school night. Her teacher Mrs.Worthington has a rat and a snake. That and snacks are her favorite so far.
SHad has Mrs.Keen, who is in our ward and he had her in primary. She is a great girl, played college basketball, and is a great teacher he is excited.
Dixon, needless to say was not excited to go back. Although I am pretty sure he is glad to be getting closer to moving out on his own!!
Summer has been fun, lots of mountain horse rides, practicing, competing, swimming, laughing, and lots of hauling hay!!!! The fresh air in the mountains does a body so good!!! I took a 3 year old up tonight for a big ride, she did awesome. We made it close to the top of the red cliffs, and you could see so many ridges and skylines. Nothing like that, to clear your thoughts.
Reminded me to step back and take a look at the good things in peoples lives. Sometimes its easy to become offended and mad. Needless to say I have much improvement to do in this area!!! I only want to be positive and really use the law of attraction. It works, if you think those positive thoughts and put your mind to use, as well as your hands good things will come of it.
Well here's to a great school year, Dixon did well in Delta last weekend, 3rd in the calf roping on Friday with a 9.5, and 7Th in the dogging with a 7.0 and 4Th in the team roping. Saturday i think we scored a few points in the calf roping, everything else went south!!!! We are headed to Randolph this weekend, for a one day waa-hoo.

Fair week is over !!!!!! YEH!!!!
Fair week is complete!! Can't say how happy I am about that. We had a new experience, and showed the cutest dang pig!!! Just barely weighing in at 230, after much prayer, and lots of his favorite cake mix on top of his pig food, Porkie made the cut!!!!
It was fun, Shad did a good job showing him and selling him. He made 500, and was a little sad to see him go.
Shad and Dixon had a great run in the team roping on Tuesday night. A 6.3, ended up just barely getting them a check. They were excited, and it was lots of fun. KyLeigh Jo was in the queen contest, and just came up short of the title. She did so awesome, and I was so proud.
Dixon is back at high school rodeo this weekend, ended up 2ND in the calf roping with a 10.2 and first in the bull riding. I can't believe how time fly he will be a Jr this year!!!
I turned a year older last week, and when I ran the barrels on Wednesday, my little girl became a star at the microphone!!! It was dang cute, and made my day as she sang Happy Birthday to me. Of course she added the part that said I look like a monkey and I am one to. So lucky!!!!
Casy will have to go back to school this week, and the kids head back shortly after that. Summer has been the best time. Casy and I went to the mountain for my birthday, went horse riding, slept in,ate, played cards, and laughed. Good times, just living the dream, man am I lucky!!!
