We have all been out of town so much this summer, we haven't been out to the ranch together in awhile so Sat. Billy wanted to check the fence for problems. He and Kisha rode it out and found a few places that needed some attention. The rest of us met them at the big barn around lunch and had a picnic, then went and played, some on four wheelers, some on horse back and as always some of us on the mule watching Billy work because that's what he enjoys (I'm the one watching along with several grandkids that just like being with us). It was fun. The boys also took their guns out and practiced shooting cans and bottles down in the big pit. Got a little hot around 3 but a great great day. I love having Maebeth and Kisha so close. I have always loved it when the girls live close by and I have been lucky enough that I have had all of them at one time or another after they grew up and left home!!
Richard and Mr. William, he is getting so big!

Evan just always loves going with Grandy and Grumpa, he eventually went with the boys on the 4-wheelers. But that was after we finished the fence. He was busy catching locusts and telling us all about them.
Here's the crew we had helping us. Holly and Charlotte fell asleep on our way back to the barn

Believe it or not Kisha got Kyle up on a horse. He'll never be the same after he lives here.
Holly needed to get up and ride too when she saw them but it didn't last long. Kisha is riding Jazzie. She wanted to check him out before we took him to the house for the kids to ride. He's prefect except one thing, He doesn't like to unload from the trailer, other than that he will be great for any of the kids so come to see us Katie!!
Will and Maebeth, she had just got done riding the 4-wheeler and was taking a little break! Will had fallen asleep while riding with her.
What a great day, looking forward to many more.
