Life on Lazy H Ranch

One of the best things about living with Papa and Grandma is the time the kids get to spend at Lazy H Ranch. Papa and DJ pal around together all the time and DJ loves every minute of it! Papa takes him to the feed store (where they also keep buying new chickens and sometimes bunnies) and lets DJ help out with the many chores required on the ranch (egg collecting, feeding, grooming, etc.) Our little DJ has definitely become a country boy & Gavin is following in his footsteps.

Gavin loves helping too!

Loba (1/2 wolf 1/2 husky) had 12 puppies this spring. DJ got to watch Loba have her puppies and loved visiting the new puppies each day with Papa

Life on Lazy H Ranch is fun but tiring!

Always quick to copy my big brother

Gavin was so proud of his colorful feet!

Fun in the Mud

We had a wonderful time with the Middleton gang at Lake Shasta in May. Thank you Marc and Tammy for letting us use the cabin!

My Dear Lara

Lara has been one of my dearest friends since the sixth grade. She is one of the funniest, kindest,

beautiful (inside and out), giving, genuine and loving people you'll ever meet and her friendship has been such a blessing!

It is always fun to get dressed up and take a picture with my sweetie!
(Rare event now days)

Lara's nephew, Aidan, who made the cutest little ring bearer ever! He nearly stole the show as he danced the night away.

It was so much fun to visit with my dear Mama and Papa Neal! (Lara's parents)

Great catching up with great friends!

Having so much fun, just like we were in High School again.

Okay Lorp & Adam . . . time to go make some precious babies! :)
