Newest addition to our horse family!!!




Di ckie has finally gotton him a horse!! He retired his old horse and gave him to Savannah. So he has been without a horse and has just recently gotton him another one. We have had him about 2 months now and he is working out great. He is a red roan, gelding, 7 year old. He is great horse and just needs alittle work roping out of the box. I rode him the other day and I have to say he is the fastest horse I have ever rode.

Mom's 1st Women's Ranch Rodeo 12/3/06

Well I survived my first ever true rodeo!!! It was fun and I had a blast!! Me and my horse worked very well together and I am proud of her. Had alittle trouble roping the calves, but all in all it was a good day!! We did 3 events: mugging, sorting, and un-tagging. My team is planning to do several rodeos throughout this next year, I will keep you posted on the dates. I know one rodeo will be in Terrell, Texas. I will get some pics posted as soon as I get mine.

Savannah's rodeo finals 12/2/06

My daughter had her first rodeo finals this past Saturday in Henderson, Texas. She did a outstanding job in all her rodeos and we are so very proud of her. She won a belt buckle, wildrag, coat, reins and a headstall with a handmade buckle. She cleaned up and the prizes were awesome!! She is ready for the next season to start.
