Total Hicks


I am trying to spare you all the 300-some pictures I took. Along with the fact that I now have TWO broken cameras and missed out on some good pictures of Isabella leading Vincent on the horse (because we made a trip to Hobby Lobby), I am also waiting on some pictures of the hard work my Dad did on the Ranch-sign and the balloon arch (yea Cheer-leading!!) we put around the sign.

So what did we do for 9 days??? I am not really sure!! Unfortunately my Dad and Papa Joe worked A LOT around the ranch....we made several shopping trips, a trip into downtown Fort Worth with just the 4 of us, lots of eating out, lots of drinkin' and visiting, lots of work for the 4th (which I realized I don't have decor pictures of on the collage, but I will put in my book), a little horse riding, a new golf cart, tons of fireworks, matching t-shirts and a few odd happenings around including Camryn getting strep-throat and Popi giving us a scare on the Tractor. I did take some really cute pictures of Isabella for her 6th Birthday that I will post later. Oh and one more important fact: Chris and I are the Empty Cross Ranch Chili-Cook Off Winners!!!!!!!! YEE HAW!!

Yay for chili cook off winners, that's great! And I'm loving Bella's short hair, it looks so cute in pigtails.

OK, first off you are NOT total hicks...lol! Far from in fact! Second, LOVE Bella's haircut...she looks adorable. I think I saw on FB that she donated to Locks for Love? Maddie has been asking about that lately...And third, looks like you guys had a great time...sorry about the broken camera, strep throat and a tractor scare. Hobby Lobby is my favorite! Remember we tried to go there when you were here last year but it was Sunday and they were closed. I spend WAAAAY too much money there! I think we need a post about your chili, maybe a recipe???? ;)
