Updates on the Family



Jarrod has hired back the old foreman of his work crew and says he forgot how much he missed South Texas Ag, look for his ad in the Victoria Advocate. Hay season is in full swing and is busy making hay while the sun shines. ( I know that sounded corny) In all his "free time" he is still working on our arena. He is so sweet to do this because as everybody knows Jarrod does nothing half way so he is building it out of pipe and guard rail!!! I am so excited, I bet my city girl friends are going what?, only me right. I think now that Jett has taken an interest in riding it's full steam ahead. Maybe when it is completed we will have a little roping or something, nothing big just friends and family. I will let every one know.



I think Jett has hit a growth spurt because all but two pairs of his pants are to short, so we just tuck them in his boots and try to convince him to wear them like that. He tells me no, Daddy doesn't do that...I guess I trip to Cavender's is in our future. I took him to Spashway in Sheridan last Friday I meant to take picture but the disposable camera I brought along was stolen...it's not like I could get him to stand still long enough either. We had a great time I would recommend going.

I have been feeling a lot better and have returned to work this week. I'm unsure if I will need the gall bladder surgery the Dr is waiting to see if the cyst shrinks with time or completely dissolves. I'm looking forward to return to life as normal. Thank you everybody that had me in their prayers.

TOM TOM Weekend

Tom Tom weekend is the first weekend in June and there are many events. Friday night we took Jett to the rodeo to watch Aunt Haley rope, Saturday was the parade, party in the park and that night the rodeo again. Jett had so much fun watching the big "cowboys" he woke me up EARLY Sunday morning and said I want to ride. I have been waiting to hear these words so we saddled up my horse Chicken and I led him around for a while. I was so proud of Jett and the horse. Jett was learning how to stop, turn, and back up the horse and the horse was being extremely tender. It's like they know when a little one is on, as you can see Jett's legs are finally long enough to start learning to riding by himself. We will be working on this all summer and fall, maybe this winter he can truly ride by himself.

Jett riding my horse

I love this smile

Jett took this one, he was a little close but I liked the photo.

This video is of Jett riding for the first time alone. (This horse is very broke and follows me wherever I walk) Later in the day we changed saddles and put on Jarrod's first saddle, now Jett's saddle, I will post those later.

Jane the Wonder Dog

Last night I put Jett in bed about 8:30 , Jane has been sleeping in his room lately to "protect" him from the monsters. I checked on him a couple times and he was still awake...9:00, 9:15, 9:25, 9:37, 9:49 so needless to say I was tired but the only one. Jarrod got home after a long day of hay season duties and checked on him and came running in here laughing, you have to get your camera, I think the pictures speaks for it's self...



AFTER- I think Jane just gave up and went to sleep.
DURING

BEFORE-This is his old Lighting McQueen shirt that was in a pile of stuff to put up. I promise his room is not normally this messy.

Kitchen Fun

Today I attempted to clean/organize the kitchen as I was working on the lazy susan in the corner I could not make it turn 360 degrees, so I asked Jett to climb in and remove whatever it was. He is such a little man and will just say okay Mommy no problem.

Recent Photo's

A couple of pics from the weekend I thought were fun. I just saw the date was wrong on my camera and changed it, oops. By the way I'm loving TRHO NEW Jersey, especially Dina, she is a riot.
