Wagon Races




Well, we are finally home. Its seems like forever since I have seen the computer. Nine nights and ten days could be considered too long. I guess that would be judged on who you were talking to. It was hot and dusty for most of the week and very hot and dusty for the rest of the week. It was also a lot of fun!! William and the kids never want it to end, I enjoy the people watching and the excitement of the races. The concerts were all good and everyone loved dancing and goofing off to the music. MaKayla was excited to be racing with her dad and Colby this year. I was maybe a little less excited than them, haha. MaKall, who turned seven last week, rode a bull at one of the clinics that was held. MaKenzie just enjoys being around all of the horses and trying to learn to rope from "her brother Jeffrey". All of the kids seemed to have a wonderful time. Dausen and MaKayla wanted to ride every second that they could. MaKall, MaKenzie and Mason took advantage of not going to school for a couple of days and just had a ball. Everything went great until Saturday afternoon when Lonnie took a horrible fall when the out riding horse went down. After an ambulance ride to Clinton hospital and a William ride to Conway, he endured surgery on Sunday morning to piece together a badly broken leg. With lots of prayers and lots of patience, he will be fine and ready to "Baboon" again in no time.
