Some of August

August came and went- and again, I didn't blog. I miss doing it but dang it takes so much time! The girls did the Rec Department youth rodeo and did quite well. 
I entered Kynlie in the Jr Barrel Racing during the fair and she practiced and had the patern down and could do it by herself. Then came rodeo day and she was being her dingy little self, not paying attention to anything so I led her through the pattern. When I let go of the horse to send her home, she told me she was ready, then JJ took off on her and her head was hitting his butt as he was loping. She wasn't holding on to anything when I let go and couldn't hold herself up. They got JJ stopped at the end of the arena and he stopped fast and Kynlie fell off on her head. Luckily all she had was a little road rash on her forehead and cheek. She promises me next time she'll hold on!


Neil got himself stuck during the derby in Baker so his car was still good for another weekend. It POURED the next weekend during the Miles City Derby but the cars bumped into each other long enough that they overheated and Neil was the last one running!

The basement walls went up and we did a lot of work on the house. My dad and I got really good with wacker packers and paint rollers full of tar!
