School "Daze"

Yesterday was Ty's 1st day of school. The ranch is home base this year, so you can see us dropping him off yesterday morning. Yesterday afternoon, we led Cody down to meet Ty at the bus stop, and we rode horses home after school. If you double click the pictures and look at them up close, you'll see that Ty is wearing his backpack in one, and his boots are attached to the saddle in another.

Mi Vida Loca

That means "My Crazy Life!" We did a lot of living this month! July events included: The trip across the state to the wedding, a couple days later I helped with Teen camp at Paisano, Teryn and Ty went to a Boys camp at Paisano, we also spent a little time at Paisano General Encampment, we went to Angelo to work on a house we bought for resale, and Teryn and Ty worked cattle on different ranches most of the month. All that in addition to work and all the things we usually do! Ty is doing a great job training Cody, but he's still riding my horse when they work cattle! Ty needs about 15 more rides before he starts using Cody as a cowhorse. You can see from the pictures that they are riding outside the round pen now, and Ty is pretty relaxed on Cody - enough to drink water on his back!
