My vacation started August 14 when I left Chicago and flew to Frisco, Texas, It was a trip that I needed and didn't think I needed. I did many different things, Sandy and Ken had a party for my birthday! Red Velvet Cupcakes!
We went out on Matt's boat very refreshing, for that day it was very hot and the water blowing in your face felt good.
This was one of the many Bull riders that we saw, they are all so young!
I did manage to find a cowboy for Andrea!

Yes, a long time ago the tail on the buffalo was the tapper! I didn't like the beer. I love Shinners.

What a great vacation! Have you been to Andersen Gardens in Rockford? It's been rated as one of the top 10 Japanese Gardens in the world. It's very pretty. If you ever want to meet there, I'd be game :)
It looks like you had a great time and you deserve it.
Oh wow what a wonderful holiday, I especially envy you seeing those cattle drives you know me and cows!! It looks like such a wonderful place, so many different things to do. Love you blog too, you have a beautiful family and your grand children are adorable.
