State Fair of Texas 2014

Going to the State Fair is one of my very favorite days of the year...

 Woohoo!!

 Hand painting on a car...so beautiful!

 

 Big Tex!

 

 We saw some very pretty and some very interesting rabbits!

 Ready for the Pig Races!

Rylie was chosen to be our section's cheerleader down on the racing field, but she refused and Katie didn't want to take her place, so we passed it on to another kid. 

 Children's Farm...

 Cuties!

 We loved this cool horse project...built with only old metal tools. 

 Our first visit in the Children's Aquarium...it was very cool!

 

 Touch Tank...

 They loved touching the sting rays swimming by...

 Fun little roller coaster..

Great Day Together!

Elk Hunting in Colorado

Ryan went on an elk-hunting trip, this year, to Colorado with his buddy, Chase.  They had an excellent time! Chase and another friend, Dan, both got a bull elk.  Ryan didn't get one this trip:(

These are the pictures that I received...

 

 Campsite!

 haha!

 

Ryan with Dan's bull...wow!

18 hour trip home...sleepy time!

Afternoon at Grandmother's

We love to spend time with Grandmother and PaPa OT! She got a new puppy, so that made it even more exciting...

 Aunt Patty, MamaJan and PaPa were there too!!

 Then, Cooper and Luke came over and it was even better!
