Family fun at the Ranch

We finally made it down to Haystack Ranch. Better

known as the Smarts ranch. They have been trying to

get us down there for awhile and well being the chicken

and more of a city girl that I am it took a little while

for me to go. But I enjoyed it and had a nice relaxing

and fun time. I definatley could not be a "cowboy's wife"

nor do I ever want to be but for a weekend here

and there it will be ok. Now the rest of the family enjoyed

themselves very much too! The kids had fun riding around

in the ranger and just getting dirty! Something Kamrielle

has no problem doing (she's not my daughter). Carder

was sooo good and he just enjoyed being outside. Caden

well he ate well. He has two hollow legs and I think he

finally got them full! He is a growing boy.

Now this is more up my ally...relaxing and getting

a pedicure. Misty was so nice to give us all one while

we listened to conference.

Vinnie has been to the ranch several times to help round

up cattle (I think that's what you call it??) Anyways this

is something he enjoys doing and he would love to just

live the rest of his life out on a ranch...hmmm. Maybe I

should not mention it. He had a great time and I do think

he is a dang good lookin cowboy! Even if he does not own

a pair of wranglers those old navy jeans still look cute!

Augustus "Gus" named from Lonesome Dove movie got to

come along too! He fit right in with the 30 plus dogs there.

Vinnie and Josh doin some leanin on the fence and some

cowboy talkin. That's what you do you know.

Getting my snugglin in. Just incase they did not come

back or something. I look like I just crawled out of bed.

Oh wait I did. Vinnie looks cute in his chaps (spelling?)

There they go. Off to find cattle.

I thought this was a cute picture of some of the

kids. Kamrielle is second from the left. Thanks for

sharing your ranch with us. I think we will try it again

soon! As long as I don't have to cut off any horns and

seer them with hot metel and brand and you know,

Cowboy stuff. I'll just keep helping in the kitchen. Is

that enought to get invited back??
