Ride'm Cowgirl

Karson rode this past weekend at the NBHA spring district show in Columbia. It was just an all around awesome weekend for her. Saturday she placed on both Classy and Chance and became $75 richer. That's a lot of money to a 13 year old! She improved her times each day on the horses, so by Sunday, she and Chance (aka ole faithful) had their best run to date. We were all there cheering her on, as you will hear in the video! (we probably annoy so many people) By Sunday, we weren't sure how much more our rearends could take. My goodness those bleachers get hard after 3 days of barrel racing, but you know what, seeing Karson run a 15.2 was well worth it! We're so proud of her.

Happy Anniversary To Us

Yesterday, Mike and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary. 22 years, oh how the time has flown by. I look at Kylie now, who will be 20 in March, and think about the fact that I had been married for almost 2 years when I was just 20. What the heck were our parents thinking, letting us get married? I'm sure they thought the odds were stacked against us, 18 & 19 years old, trekking off across the United States, no money, NO anything.....except this incredible love we shared. There isn't a person in the world that could have talked us out of it. I tell people all the time that God sent me Mike. I'm a lucky girl. Happy Anniversary babe, I love you. Thanks for marrying me!
