Adios Oklahoma!!

Well today is officialy my last day of work!! Houston and I will be hitting the road Tuesday! Were all pretty excited. Hunter has been gone a week and made some tracks along the way. He won Northeplatte, NE and split a round in Pleasant Grove, UT and then won second in a round at Reno. Not bad for the first week on the road. Let's hope it just gets better and better as the summer goes on. He'll get a short break here at home and then will head to Springdale, AR on Tuesday. H and I will also be leaving bright and early Tuesday morning, only were headed in a different direction. We're taking the rig and horses to Greeley, CO. Hunter will fly in and meet us there on Wednesday. After him and Jerome rope there then we have to jet out and get to Oakley, UT. It's going to be a very busy week to say the least and will last until after the 4th of July. They don't call it Cowboy Christmas for nothing!! Keep yalls fingers crossed for lots of winning!!!
Last weekend we went on a small vacation with my family to SeaWorld in San Antonio, TX. We were all pumped because the way people talk, it'll just blow your mind. I'll tell ya what it did....just blew my money. I will probably never go back to SeaWorld again. We got there at 930 am, which the gates didn't open until 10. Then once we got into the park they informed us that nothing opens until 11 or later. Kind of not sure why you would open a park if it really didn't open until later. But I soon figured out why...the lines to everything are rediculously long for every single thing there. You've got to get in line early if you want to see the shows. Not a very fun thing to do when you're 4 years old. Or heck I'm 24 and I was ready to blow the joint. Anyway Houston found something right away that he loved. They had a pretty big splash park and he was content to stay there all day long. After all day in the sun and walking in circles we decided SeaWorld wasn't all it was cracked up to be. We got some much need grub in our systems then hit the Riverwalk. The next day we decided floating the Comal River in New Braunfels sounded like a great plan. So we packed up pretty early and headed off. We had such a blast!! Anyway that was our big adventure for the week. I'm sure I'll have plenty more coming up. Keep us in your prayers, especially me and H man as we are headed with truck, trailer and 2 horses on a 14 hour drive Tuesday!!!

Let Summer Begin!

Hunter and H after his homerun game!!

Nice swing H

Thumbs up after his Homerun

diving for his pool tools

These goggles were pretty tricky. The first time we put them on him he paniced because he couldn't breath. I guess he forgot that you can breath through your mouth and nose.

 Houston and I officialy sent Hunter off today! This is the first time in 5 years we haven't left with him. A little sad but I'm keeping my hopes up that he kicks some major butt out there. And Houston and I may eventually fly out but as of right now we are hangin out here at home. Well T-ball finally ended...we didn't win the tournament, not even a game in the tournament but we were pretty successful. Houston hit 2 homeruns in his last 2 games!! They were Huge hits and you would have thought we just won the world series. Heck in my book it was just as sweet as winning it but I'm kind of partial. We were all so proud of him and he loved all the attention he got. I think he made close to 60.00 from all his family. Hahah we have quite a few family members and he kind of robbed his Dad. But you only hit your first homerun once!!! Now that T-ball is over Houston pretty much lives in someone's pool. My parents, Hunter's parents and our good friends John and Diane have a pool so he thinks everyday he has to be to the closest body of water. And it doesn't matter who takes him as long as someone is willing. Here's a list of rodeos Hunter will be. I will add more as he enters them and I will try to keep you guys updated on how he does at each one of them. Anyway hope to see some of you down the road and hopefully I can keep you as entertained as possible with stories from the road!! God Bless
