It’s a busy phase of life, getting to do so many of the things we love, and a lot of you here probably would benefit from these details too! So instead of only sharing with my Facebook friends I wanted to share the inside scoop of events or associations I’m involved with and aware of that have upcoming summer events that at least some of you will want the info on. So, here it all is, in one convenient spot 😉 reach out to me with any questions!

Little Sterling just a few years ago, back when he’d wear a coat 😂

Frigid sunny days with new babies starting to hit the ground only means one thing around here….. we’re getting closer to our favorite part >> longer sunny days and branding pen weekends 🤠🥶

Raising independent humans sure can lead to some sticky situations with no handy return in a hurry 🤣🤣

When Scarlett ran in in a panic that Sterling was “Stuck in the mud and needed my help” this wasn’t quite what I was imagining 😆☠️ All four were playing hide and seek and Maley told them they could “camouflage into the mud” 🤦🏻‍♀️

About the only time of year I’ll say, please hard freeze already.

Happy Birthday to the U-S-A, home of the free because of the BRAVE.

PS - how was this only 4 years ago and yet a complete lifetime ago it feels 🥹🥹🥹

It’s been a hot minute since the kids or I have jumped in on the 4th of July run and last night we kicked off the first one of the week at Toppen*sh, and there’s just no other way that I’d want to raise my kids. Prayer, love of our country {ALWAYS}, friendship, competition, and grit win or lose, so many life lessons as an every day part of our lives.

Here’s to more rodeos, safe travels, and hopefully fast runs! Lucky that our very own circuit has some of the best rodeos in the country come rodeo season!

{Twelve} years, over a third of my life I’ve lived without my mom here to share it with. There really isn’t a day that goes by that she or Ned aren’t on my mind.

The day feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago all at the same time. I wish we had more time, I wish it had ended differently, I wish a lot of things really, but mostly I’m thankful for the time I did have with a Mom to be missed so much.

I truly believe one of the hardest parts of this has been watching the friends that would follow in the footsteps of losing a parent young. It’s this unspoken connection, a constant thought, because you’ve been there, and I have too many friends that have been there now too.

We all know it’s part of life, but it sure doesn’t make it any easier. In the past 12 years so much has happened that I want her to be here for, but I’ve still been blessed. I don’t lose sight of that, but that alone did give me strength and a vision for the life I would lead. Remember no days are promised, invest in your relationships and memories more than you do your materials, you will never regret building a life worth living or making memories and passing time with friends and family that can be missed so deeply.

Love you Mom & Ned 💕

Scrolled past this tonight as I was cleaning up my computer downloads. Man, what a blur. It feels like yesterday, yet so long ago at the same time 🥹❤️

Maley was in her colorful hair stage, Hudson was in his first year of school, and the world hadn’t shut down quite yet and I was keeping my head above water literally feeling like I was doing nothing but nursing twins and keeping everyone else semi content 😅

What I didn’t know, is that time would move on, I’d miss parts of this stage, but mostly I’d learn and grow so much as a person from just 3 years ago. Sometimes you have to get lost in the mundane and only bare necessities to truly find what sets your soul on fire or the things that really matter to you. I always knew my family was what did it, but finding peace, and just being content has led me to such a stage in life of pure gratefulness.

I look back and I’m proud of so much, and also pumped to not do it again 🤷🏻‍♀️🤪

❤️❤️ Thankful. Grateful. Blessed. ❤️❤️

I’ve learned a lot, we’re always learning, but the most monumental this winter is there’s no slow season around here any part of the year anymore. 😅 Haven’t had a “family” photo in a while make a mark here and thought it was time. We truly have no babies, and it shows how grown up everyone is.

Hudson 9, Maley 7, Scarlett & Sterling 4. Jason’s working non stop whether it’s been feeding, calving, or welding and building all our fences and place updates. I’m busy managing the household, a few days a week as a hygienist at the dental office, and keeping everyone’s horses saddled 🙌

We spent last weekend branding our big set of calves and got ourselves that much closer to pasture turnout, thankful for all our amazing friends that came and helped us get that knocked out!

Life’s not perfect, but it’s all a part of growth right?! Here’s to hopefully soon warmer weather, and a lot more memory making!

Baby spam…. If only the wait on the four legged babies you raise wasn’t so long 😅 Sweet “Sevi” is a spicy one, but we’re excited for her! A little round pen work on this dang cold spring afternoon.
