Austin's Birthday

Austin had another birthday and he got another cheesecake...his favorite kind of cake! He kind of hordes it and doesn't share very good!

Farm Bureau Trip



We were in Boise for our last YF&R conference so we took the family!  We got to torn the Capital building and see all the new renovations that they have made...it was beautiful and educational for our boys!

This was our last year as the state chair..and really the last for us as YF&R.  It has been an amazing experience where we grew a lot and met some life long friends.  These two are a perfect example..I will miss seeing them.

January Happenings

This family loves the time of year when it gets dark early and we can just spend time together playing games, reading, playing and just finding what we can to get through the long winter months.  We love that we can slow down for a season and just be!

Dad playing farm monopoly with the boys!  They love when he plays games with them!

Babe-The Mare

Austin was given this mare from his grandpa when he was about 14.  She has been a good horse.  Austin broke and trained her.  He trained her to jump, team rope, but her biggest accomplishment was an great cow horse! 


Ruxton loved her as much as Austin and she taught Ruxton the ropes.  Hard day for this little cowboy!




Austin, Ruxton, and their mare!

Ruxton's 7th Birthday

This crazy boy had a birthday!  He is loads of fun and keeps us on our toes!  We love him and the light in our family would be so much dimmer without him.  He loves the out doors, horses, and being a cowboy!  Happy birthday sweet boy we love you!













New boots..of course!

Grandpa Price


Austin and I had just gotten back from Hawaii and were exhausted and sick!  But we made it back to celebrate this boys birthday!
