Weekend Complete


thank goodness, to much craziness.!.
This long weekend was jammed packed with rodeo, parade, chuckwagons, wild pony races and wicked storms.
We did get some visiting in with some old friends and the kids enjoyed the freedom of the rodeo infield

Here are some picture hi-lights.

Kids in the parade, the Burnco float with the musicians

This was the hail that fell at the rodeo grounds on Saturday night. Shaped the bullets.. that was crazy.. then Sunday night!


Sunday Night.
Sunday night hailed and Stormed at our home at 2:30 in the morning. Rocking and shaking our house. Our siding is cracked, window broke and my holiday trailer very badly hail damaged.
Horses ran through the fence and gates dinted. It was very scary, we took the kids to the basement and waited it out, we lost power for 8 hours. Not a night I want to relive.


A video of the boys first night wild horse racing.


So as you can see, it was fun and eventful. hopefully insurance is not a hassle and a "make work project" and we can get this fixed up without any problems.

Back to work tomorrow, I think that it will be a welcome change to the unscheduled weekend.

Wow! What a mess. I'm glad it's property that was damaged and not any of you.

That was one of the most brutal storms I have ever seen. We were still at the rodeo grounds sunday night in my little trailer.

It was soooo lovely coming home Monday morning to $25,000 damage to my house. I am now waiting for a new roof, new siding, new paint on the deck and fences.

Good times had by all!
