BUCKED OFF

 

 

Sierra got bucked off the little play pony that we hung in grandma's tree. She was out riding it and fell off backwards landing in the rocks. The rest of us were out shooting guns and I called to tell Mary we were on our way and she said Sierra had cut her head open. We got there and blood was all over. It had just gushed down her head and her shirt. The back of her shirt was covered in blood all the way down to her underwear. She didn't want anyone to see the blood and wanted to hide it. She even wanted to go and clean the rocks the next day. She found out there was none on the rocks it all ended up on her shirt. I did talk her into one picture though. We opted for no stiches because of where it was at and thought a little scar wouldn't hurt her there. So we bandaged her up and put her to bed. The next day it had scabbed well and we sent her to school to show her battle wounds. We are so glad we are still a stitch free family. TOUGH GIRL!!

While the Others Kids are at School

 

Makenzie and Tyson have a great time in the morning with Dad and Mom to themselves. They play well together too and have a lot of fun!! Makenzie is enjoying school and you can see just how many projects she has been doing. Tyson was having fun balancing on dad's hands showing his muscles. It is nice to have a little one on one sometimes.

Elk Hunting with the Whites

We went up camping to Ely for Steve's elk hunt. It was a lot of fun and beautiful weather. The kids had a lot of fun with the White family. It is always nice to have other kids to play with. They had fun racing bikes down the hill, making forts, hiking looking for treasures, riding 4-wheelers, and swinging on the rope swing. It was short but fun to be there with Steve. He ended up being very close to the one he wanted but never could get a clean shot. He really enjoys hunting and enjoys the time to think. He is training the children well and how to be true hunters.

Beautiful Singing

Makenzie is so hilarious to listen to when she is singing with headphones on. We were going camping and I had the camera right there as I was driving so I set it up and when she started singing I would push the button. After a few tries I got this. This is Makenzie singing Jesus Take the Wheel. SO FUNNY!!

Makenzie's New PONY Shirt

Makenzie called Grandma to tell her about her new shirt. So Grandma wanted to see it on the blog. So here is Makenzie in her new outfit.

GONE and COWBOY PANTS

Tyson wakes up everyday and wants to put on his cowboy pants and boots and go to grandpas. He loves wearing pants and boots and his hat. His other favorite thing to go around singing is Gone. It is on the country karaoke and so he has heard the kids sing it. Here are a couple videos of him although they obviously are not as great as when you catch him when he doesn't know you are there.
