Good day!

Hope everyone here in North Texas is trying to stay warm. It's rainy and cold. And we're due for a Winter Storm of freezing rain so they say. Oh joy! At least there is no where I have to be. Poor hubs has work, and will be out in it.

So how was everyone's weekend? Ours was great! Saturday we went to the Fort Worth Stock Show with Kel and Ken. We stayed somewhat warm, it wasn't too bad. We made our way through the cattle, swine and poultry barns to visit some livestock. Hunt enjoyed seeing all the animals. We got to take a peak at cattle, pigs, chickens, sheep, llamas, horses and rabbits that kids were showing. Then we made our way to the kiddie barn area where we saw more of these animals(in baby form) along with turkeys, donkeys, duckies, and other foul. We also made it through the exhibit room where you can purchase all sorts of western things from clothing to furniture to jewelry or even toys and ranch stuff. Our tour through these areas was a quick run because a certain little someone...ahem(Hunt) was whining most of the time. I'm sure he was getting a wee bit tired of walking and with no nap either...well, what do you expect...right? All in all we enjoyed it. It made me wish more than ever we were away from the city. I'd love more animals! We'd love more animals!
Hunt was skeptical, but eventually petted a llama. I didn't schelp my camera along on this outing, but now wish I had.
I did snap some photos at home before and after we went.

Still need some growing to do Hunt! But not too fast!

These boots were made for walking, and that's just what they did! Hunt's, mama's and daddy's boots. We were all tired after we made it back home.

Daddy was all tuckered out. How did he get away with using Hunt's coveted blanket??? Just luck!

Hunt was too busy to notice daddy using his blanket...riding boots is a rough and tough job!
After the Stock Show we meet up with more friends at Razoos for dinner. It was great to see everyone and to have them all together was fabulous! The last time was at the lake house during the summer. We really need to do it more often.

Here is a slide show I put together from photos of the Stock Show Parade from the previous weekend.



This Sunday we spent the day at home. We watched some music videos and did alot of dancing. Then afterwards we made our way outside to enjoy the nice weather. We played with Zoe and swung on our horse tire swing.
Here are a few photos of the tire swing that I haven't posted yet. Hunt LOVES it so much! Thanks Santa! He giggles and screams with delight. I love seeing him have such a good time on such a simple thing as a tire swing. I think if given the chance he would swing all day long.

Ok, I'm trying to catch up. STILL more to come from Christmas and up to now.

Stay warm and dry...
