{ Memorial Day Weekend }

Our Memorial Day weekend was spent up at the ranch. The Weather was perfect, the company was spectacular, we had a really nice weekend. The Boys did lots of fencing, and irrigating, there is so much work to get done before the cows come.

Cubs was lovin his mem aide(lemonade)

We painted these cute colored chairs. Mom and T have worked their little hearts out on them, sanding and priming in the end we opted for spray paint!!

Sav and port played all day long for 4 days straight!!

They are best buddies. When they get mad at each other the threat is "I won't be your best buddy anymore!" So cute, I am glad they are so close in age and have so much fun together!!

Canon had a blast just chillin' in the cabin. He did make it out for his very FIRST ranger ride. He LOVED it, and I loved that it put him to sleep almost instantly!
We found lots of deer sheds and Cole was stoked about his new weapons!

We were LUCKY enough to celebrate 2 Birthdays over the weekend, which means 2 CAKES! I was one happy girl! Brookie turned the big TwO FiVE and Mama turned the very young FiVE oNE!!


Mom and Dad and Mom's Birthday! Aren't they the cutest grandparents you have ever seen?

We enjoyed some "beer can" Chicken compliments of Dann and his assistant chef Mat

Don't they look like excited Chefs?? 2 hours, and 6 raw chickens later they were not AS excited!!

We also had some indoor S'MORES that were oh so YUMMY! My mouth is watering just typing about them!!

MMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm!!

On Monday it was horse time! Sav was so excited to catch her favorite horse(mule) Dixie Chicken. She gets so excited to see her, and feed her. This weekend she even rode her ALL by herself! She said she loved it but not when Dixie would run!

Cole however is not such a big fan. Every time he gets near them he cries. We are working on him though. Hopefully it's just a phase. He is on Captain in this picture.

All saddled up ready for her first ride ALL by herself! Grandma Joni gave her the pink hat she is wearing, she didn't take it off the whole day!

One HAPPY cowgirl!!
