preparing/pep talking each other to enter the ring
camp-o-rama social and dinner circle

staying with our most beautiful Diney (grandma)
first horse back rides on Taco

Smith is a natural on Taco. It must be the "horse girl" genes coming out in him. Cole, looks like you showed that cow who was boss? Thanks for wearing her down for me.

Love these photos Remi. I don't think we have ever had such good pictures of the wild cow milking event. You can even see Cole kissing his "you know what" good-bye.
