Trisity's 1st Barrel Race







Trisity has always loved horses and everything to do with them. Her latest passion is barrel racing, she has been training for past several months and today was her 1st competition. She did really well and had lot's of fun. Brynnly is her greatest fan and loves to ride with her. I guess this is how I will be spending my summer!

I LOVE SPRING



Spring is finally here and I am so excited!! I love the beautiful tulips and we had the fun of having a nest of baby birds in the front yard. The first baby fell out and died and we were all so sad, the mother bird just sat in the nest for days and I thought she was going to die herself from the loss. But then three new babies hatched and they were so cute. They quickly grew up and now have all left but it was so cute while it lasted. It made me think of my life as a mother and how quickly our families grow up and leave the safety of our nests.

Mother's Day






I had the best Mother's Day ever, the girl's planned dinner and everything and everybody was there. We had a picnic at the park, the weather was nice and then we played our O'Bray version of softball. It was perfect. Thanks kids, you are the best.

Easter



I forgot how fun it was to watch the kids dye eggs. Brynnly really was excited to color the eggs and crack them on Grandpa's head. She wasn't very interested in eating them. She liked the chocolate eggs the best.
