http://raininglranch.blogspot.com/2008/12/back-to-business.html
Saturday, December 27, 2008. I enjoyed taking a break for Christmas. and I hope everyone else did too. But now lets get back to the task at hand! Now that you that you have life in your horse's feet and it is moving around you at an energetic walk, you should work on disengaging (or yielding) the horse's hind quarters. These terms refer to the inside hind foot. Stepping up underneath the horse and crossing over the other hind foot. To cross-over until you stop walking (yielding). When yielding a hors...

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. Dirty jeans, workout clothes and wet swim suits. Oh my GOSH I'm tired. And it's such a GOOD tired that I cannot complain one bit, but you'd think I'd have more to show for it. I love summertime. SO. MUCH. Yeah, so the house gets a little trashed from time to time and laundry backs up like crazy. but who the heck cares? 500 yard swim, 12 mile bike ride, and 3 mile run/walk. I ride horses. I don't DO that stuff. And swimming or ...

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. SO I have decided to stop being lame and start being awesome. Which means I will start posting again. I got all deep and cosmic and stuff and who the hell wants to read that crap? And then I got depressed, and NO ONE wants to read about that crap. I may or may not still post the 2011 year-end recap in two separate posts:. A happy summarization with photos/links to prior posts. That way I've covered all my bases, right? Hilario...

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. To be finished when this tired elf gets some rest today! 1252011 public service announcement.

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. 482011 ranch and vineyard ride. We finally got a brief break in the weather, so my pony and I headed out to a nearby ranch and neighboring vineyard for a ride. Oh, and the dogs too, of course. :). Kaiyah wanted to head for the cows every chance she got. Yup, cows. Lots 'o babies on the ground. We rode up to the top of the vineyard and enjoyed the view. Still looking at the cows. Poor Bailey dog was a TIRED pup! Clean out/purge...

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. Once again the boys made their super simple Pinewood Derby cars and once again kicked butt! Calvin got 3rd and Caleb got 1st place in their Webelos division, so Caleb gets to go to District! A few science projects we've been working on around here lately. Toilet training the cat: FAILED. So, the toilet training bombed. But it was completely hilarious to watch Diesel watch the cat on the instructional video. You are IN MY SPACE!

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. Here's a riddle for you. Yet there is a cat living in our house. And Jonathan loves him. It's a Christmas miracle! Meet Diesel, the Dairy Queen Christmas Cat:. It was late December and I was in Dallas to pick up supplies at the Old Mill Feed Store. For our church's live nativity, and as I was driving through town I had a strong feeling to go through the drive through at the Dairy Queen. The feeling did not come from my stomach.

It takes no time to fall in love. but it takes you years to know what love is. Tri Your Best" triathlon (Sept. 25). Our wonderful stake Relief Society president (local LDS women's group president) Debbi Morrison felt inspired this spring to organize a stake "Tri Your Best" sprint triathlon: 500 yard swim, 12 mile bike ride, and 5K walk/run. When I heard about it, I thought it sounded like a great idea for other folks, but that there was no way in hoo-ha that I was going to do it. Thanks Jen and Kathy).
