My aunt done this tree, for my cousin who got killed a year ago he was a Duke fan so this year her tree was all done in Duke. My cousin was also known as Doogan. We miss him so much we love you Doogan..
I am a little early on my background, but I am so ready for the cold cold weather to be gone and for spring to be here. Valentines day is one of my favorite holidays.
Can't forget the new gun howd got for christmas he is so proud of them, he actualy got two of them, he thinks he is going hunting with his grandpa..
They got new recliners for christmas and they both crashed on Christmas night in them.
Both kids got new chaps and cowboy hats for christmas, and Baylee got a Barrel racing set and Howdy got Bull riding, we told Howdy he is in the wrong sport, this is a team ropin family, not Bull riding, I told him he is not going to be a Bull rider when he gets older, and of coarse they got more toys they got spolied with both grandparents to.
We had a awesome Christmas the kids were so excited when they woke up Christmas morning. Dad got us up at 6:00 i think he was more excited then they were. Here are a few pictures of Christmas morning.
Billy got a big surprise on Christmas eve, He got a New saddle from Chad and his family and it is gorgeous. He was so excited, he did not even know that he was getting one and I didn't know until that day. Thanks Chad for being a very important part in our lives we love you guys.. You are like a Dad to us and a Grandpa to the kids.
My Dad had a Christmas party so we took the kids and Santa was there, Baylee last year was scared of him this year she wasn't when he walked in the door she went right up to him and shook his hand it was cute, on the other hand Howdy he is so scared of Santa he screamed and cried when he came in then, finally he wanted Grandpa to go sit by Santa and then Howdy went up there but he didn't get very close to him, but he did shake his hand, so that is a plus here are a few picks with Santa even the whole family got pictures with Santa.
We had family pictures taken so here are a few of the kids, these are my favorite there were so many to choose from so i got all of them.
A year ago today our lives changed, when my cousin was killed in a car accident. He was a great person he would do anything for anyone even if he didn't know you. He had that beautiful smile and touched many peoples life's. He taught us to be a better person and don't let life get you down. Dallas We Miss you and We Love you.
The kids are so excited for christmas this year, we put are tree up last weekend, and they ask everyday how long before santa comes, o boy this is going to be a long month..
I have more pics to come from Disneyland that have Howdy in them, but we had a blast we stood in line for over a hour for Baylee to see the Princess's and get a picture with them and she loved that but her best part was meeting Jessi and Woody.
I decided to take a couple pic's of the kids in there Halloween costumes since we won't be here for Halloween. We are leaving on Halloween to fly out to Los Alamitos, California with some friends from Roosevelt to attend horse races. While there we are going to spend a day @ Disneyland.
Baylee & Howdy have a Halloween party at school next week so I will post more from their party. Baylee wanted to be a princess , and of course Howdy, wanted to be a cowboy. He is not into dressing up so he will probably be a cowboy the rest of the Halloweens to come.
Last weekend we were putting fence up for the Horses, and Howdy would follow his dad every where he would go and he put his gloves in his pocket when ever his dad did, I thought it was kinda cute. Alllll Boy....
Poor Howdy he was out numbered by all these girls, my cousin got a moose
permit for in the Uintah's so all the guys went hunting and my sister-inlaw and her 2 girls stayed with us and Howdy was the only boy and poor Howd he got picked on by the girls, he was so glad to see his dad come home.
This is one of my favorite photo's it was one day before Bay went to school she loves to get her pictures taken.
