Weekend at {Home}

This weekend Josh, Rock, and I loaded up and headed north! I love when I get to go home and spend time with family- sister event made it!! Laughs, up late and up early, and love is what is in full when I go home. I would not want to be anywhere else! Luckily I got off early on Friday so we did not get home too late- it is quite the haul home!

The only down side- the visit is always too fast! We brought the trailer home this weekend so we could haul back home this little gem: 

Meet Missy Mae

Yep, a new horse. I went home this weekend to visit my mom and dad, dad is feeling much better but still gets a little tired- but he will be back to 100% soon, and also try a horse. It is crazy, my dad has had his eye on this mare since she was a 2 year old. I rode her as a 3 year old, but just never was able to buy her. She is now 6 and has blossomed into a beautiful horse. She is broke, but green. Has not been hauled and does not know barrels! She is my new little project and I am trying her for the next month to see if we will get a long and be her new home!

I also tried a little sorrel named Annie, but we decided to go with Missy! This was how our families Saturday morning began! The weather was perfect!

After riding, we all got ready and went to eat at Bara's, good ol' Mexican food! 

Goofy Josh

Josh and I then headed out to see his best friend and best man from his wedding and his new baby girl! Josh and her share the same birthday!!! :) We visited with him, his wife, and step daughter for a little while before heading to Josh's uncle's house to take photos of Deer! 

Yep, we worked while we were gone! Josh is trying to bring numbers up at the ranch so coming to the boss with photos of deer is his best bet! That was fun! We rode the 4 wheeler and shot a lot of pics!

The weekend was pure perfection! So much fun with the family!! We sure do know how to have a good time when we all get together!

Hope everyone has a great Day! I had a blah Monday, but getting to go home and work with Missy Mae made it way better! Yesterday our goal was to get her under the barn and on concrete...seems small but it was a huge accomplishment! We were very pleased with her! Her mind is sound and she is calm! Coupers has been a great help! :)

Peace!

Here is to you two

Okay, so now that all the wedding craziness is over and the honeymoon is over and the first week of being home and catching up is now concluded, It has all reminded me of how very thankful I am to have two amazing people in my life, and not only in my life....but as my parents. So this blog post is dedicated to them.

God honestly chose the two best people to be my parents. I can truly call them my best friends, motivators, mentors, and they are the ones I aim to please more than myself. They have always done everything in their power for me to be successful. Whether it was hauling me to a rodeo and leaving at 4am after working a 50 hour week, or coaching me and attending every sporting event I participated in, they were ALWAYS there. I can always call them for any advice, go to them with any problem, and laugh at everything with them! We joke all the time about everything. I want to thank yall for EVERYTHING you have done in my life. From supporting me through my horses and sports, to school and jobs, and most of all the for giving me the best day I could have absolutely asked for in my entire life-mine and Josh's wedding. You two made our wedding day more than anything we could have hoped for. It was beautiful and I could never thank you guys enough for everything you did to make my big day the best ever. You two lay down so much for both Brandi and I and we are truly lucky to have such amazing parents like you. So very selfless and giving. Though it all, and even though I am no longer a Noah on paper, I will always be your little girl and a Noah. I will never forget the lifelong lessons I have learned from you. Always go after what your heart desires...whether right or wrong you will learn along the way and no matter what you guys are always there to catch me and bring me back. I could go on and on, but at the same Time I do not feel like anything I could say would be enough to thank yall. I just want you to know how truly thankful I am for each of you and how much I love you both!! AND THANK YOU FOR DRIVING 6 HOURS ON SUNDAY TO BRING US LITTLE ROCKY BOY! See yall soon. We love yall!
