After swimming that day we went to the Rodeo to watch Sam, Albert, and Jake do the Wild Cow Milking and Cow Riding in the Senior Rodeo.

Sam got on the cow like 3 or 4 times before he actually stayed on.

Friday night was the Campfire circle which was a lot of fun as usual but no pics. And the Alumni Soccer game and the family dance and I decided to skip both of them since the kids were tired and Cutler and I were still sick!

Saturday morning was the Run that Rachel was in charge of so I decided to help instead of run. The tummy was not right and I was lazy!  But Mick, Hannah, and my mom ran of course! And a few of the kids did the mile run!

A little later we headed back down into town for the parade!

The highlight was the candy and seeing Grandma!

The Junior Rodeo was on Saturday and I did go for a little bit but missed most of it because I felt a nap was a huge necessity for this mama and her little kids! Sam did a good job and won the roping! He is getting really good at that cowboy stuff and sure loves it!

Sunday after church we took some family pics since it is a rare occasion for us all to get together!(we were missing Cameron and Tyler)

This is what Ronnee wore to church that day. Got to love this little girl and her strong will!

Not sure when these pics were taken but here are some Random pics from the trip that I want to be on the blog!

Love me some little baby feet and toes!

The next day my mom started Cousins Camp!

July 10th we leave for Az

We survived the drive to AZ with lots of stops and changing of pants and diapers. We had to go bath as soon as we got home! First things first we had to go see the horses!

Sadly this was the only time that Ronnee rode a horse. She was afraid because they were a lot bigger then the pony’s she rode at the Rodeo! But she still loves looking at them! And this is what happens when you ask my mom to patch your pants!

One of the days we were there we got to go to the ranch with Jake and see the cows!

Mary’s nipples!

While Tyler was with us we stayed in the bunk house and one of the mornings we woke up and I was literally covered in poop from both kids! I carried to naked babies in the house to take a bath. That just sums up the first 2 weeks of our vacation. 

Tyler flew home on Saturday and we got to stay for a couple more weeks. 

Ronnee even though she was sick she still had a lot of fun. One day she helped my mom make bread. I was in cleaning up Cutler and I hear her telling my mom “just a minute I am helping you!”  I go in the kitchen to find this…

Thank heavens my mom is patient with her Grandbabies!

Ronnee started feeling better finally and we all knew she was better  because the first thing she did was color with pencil all over my mom’s newly painted walls.  All the family that were wishing that she would get better so she would be fun was soon wishing that she would be sick again so she would be lazy!  She loves all of brothers and it was so cute to see them play with her! Every time they would leave she would ask where they were because she wanted to “push them.” The things that she finds so funny!

On Tuesday I got the lovely sickness and Cutler was still sick but Ronnee was better thank heavens! 

And on Thursday Abe and his family surprised us and came a day earlier then they said. It was funny to see the kids walk in and my mom face be so surprised! Everyone else got there later that day!  That night the kids got to play with some fireworks that they bought in Arkansas.

Friday morning we rented the pool for our annual family swim time and races! Cutler loves the water and falls asleep pretty much every time. Ronnee was nervous at first but now loves the water. She only will wear the bottoms of her suits but we are lucky because she used to only go naked!
