They Have a Way

Talked Mom into an Olive Garden evening. They have a way of doing that when I'm out of town.

Puzzle Fever

These girls have been feeling kind of puzzleee lately. Spending hours every night working on puzzles. Nice work on the Vogue puzzle, girls.

Saddle Seat






Just overwhelmed by the creativity and kindness of my friend Peter.  He surprised me today with a saddle stand that doubles as a chair.  I can sit in my cabin - on a saddle - and work at the bench. So talented and generous. This will be a cherished item in the cabin.

 Isabella's third experience with the Harlem Globetrotters....they did not disappoint.

Globetrotters Then & Now



 

This is Why




People ask me why we do what we do. Why we work so hard and play so hard. Why we don't take more time to do nothing.  This is why!  You can't replace these smiles and these memories. Priceless!

Ariat


Blame it all on my roots, I bought some boots and ruined my frugal affair....

Our first visit to Nashville's new Ariat store.

TGIF = Blizzard

Last sales call of the week in Greensburg, KY at 3:30pm.   I do believe this calls for an Oreo Blizzard with extra Oreo for the drive home.

Blue Man Group for Boo

Mom and I saw them in Vegas but this was for Isabella.  Blue Man Group at TPAC. And of course dessert at Jeff Ruby's afterward.  Happy this was a short performance, tomorrow is a work day but well worth it - she loved it.

Hottie McFarmwife

Yet again, never gets old. I receive an alert of movement between the horse and donkey pasture. It's Hottie McFarmwife graining the horses.  Love my farm wife, love my farm life.  Now if I could just finish up these sales calls and head back home.

Montana Working Cows

Sitting here minding my own business and Mike sends a picture of my boy Montana working cows at the Carroll County Fairgrounds.  THAT - is a beautiful mule.

How We FDAK







Concluding three days in Lexington for the FDAK Mid Winter.  This is how we FDAK! Ten days since I've slept in my own bed, happy to heading home.  And very grateful the girls joined for the last part of this trip.  Good times!

A Couple of Asses





Sorry, I couldn't help myself.  A wonderful stop on our trip, we invited ourselves to stop and meet a couple of mules that live down the street from our friends.  Turns out, one of them is for sale. Maybe this wasn't such a good stop after all.  I did, however, manage to pull away without buying a mule but that wasn't easy. Montana (the young man I'm hanging with) is as impressive as they come.

Fire Scout












Mr. Rob has a large brush pile that needs to be burned off.  Isabella climbed around, made her plan and successfully put a nice dent into it! My little fire scout is good at her job.
