Fun Times Roping

Yes this is me attemping to rope 7 months prego. And oh was it uncomfortable. Also I am very lucky I have a strong husband who helped me on and off the horse.


Riggun was so excited to rope like uncle kolbey does. He thought he was so cool and big it was cute! I was just shocked he actually swung the rope and threw it (with daddy's help). And for those of you who are wondering what that contraption is and does well.....It is just a plastic horse that you sit upon and then you push a bar and the calf or steer comes rolling out in front of you so you can rope it. And then it rolls back to start over. It is really cool and fun. Thank you Ganpa Hughes!



Murder Mystery Party

So I haven't taken any prego pics so this is the first one. As you can see from this pic the reason why I don't like prego pics and it doesn't help that I am carrying her so so low it makes it worse. Oh and I am about 27 weeks in this pic.
For my niece Brianna's birthday we did a murder mystery Nathan was Uncle Tex, I was Auny Maybelle, and Riggun was Lil' Tex. It was fun to dress up.

Roasting Hot Dogs

This was Riggun's first time roasting hot dogs and he had a blast. The only problem was is that he wouldn't let anyone help him. He had to do it himself and as you can see by the blackness of the hot dog he was no pro. And it wasn't black cause he burned it, it was because he would stick in the coals. Oh well he had fun, and no he didn't eat them he just cooked them.

Cute Cousins

Riggun, Whitley, and Statlen. We went to watch Whitley at her first pee wee rodeo and took this pic cause those kids are just so cute. Riggun liked to cheer for Whitley while she participated it was fun.

San Diego Trip

So we went to San Diego for about a week and had a blast we went to The Wild Animal Park, The Zoo, and Sea World. We went to the parks for 3 days straight and then on the fourth day we went shopping and to the beach even though we went to the beach almost every night anyway cause we stayed so close to it. We had so much fun. Everytime we went to the beach I forgot the camera so I had to take pics and video with my phone so unfortunately I have no idea how to get them off my phone to the computer which sucks because it was Riggun's first time and he was hilarious. It was a little chilly but he did not want to get out of the water. So he played and played until he was so cold he couldn't even walk, but there was no stopping him. If I ever get them put on the computer I will have to post them. It was a fun trip to take before the new baby comes.

Sea World

This is a pic of Riggun and Nathan on one of the rides in the new Elmo's Bay of Play. They had three rides there and Riggun loved them and wanted to go again and again.
This was another of the rides and he was trying to wave at me but couldn't find me. There was like no one at Sea World so there was no waiting in lines for rides. It was awesome!


They also had a big jungle jim for the kids to play on and Riggun had a blast playing on the with dad of course....Mom probably couldn't even fit through that tube! :)

I had to take this pic because we were watching the Shamu show and his little face was cracking me up cause he was just so intrigued!




San Diego Wild Animal Park & The Zoo

Mommy and Riggun Posing
We were leaving the Zoo and this was our last Park to visit so needless to say I was relieved 3 parks 3 days 6 months prego that's a lot of walking.

Riggun chose out the mask for his trip treat at the zoo so we found this shirt to match. He loved and some of you may know he is deathly scared of masks so we were surprised he chose it out. But only he could where it and he would say to us when we acted like we were scared "It not scary mom it not scary" But when we tried to put the mask on he would freak out cause he was scared it was so funny.


Daddy and Riggun riding the big tortoise!



Riggun had so much fun seeing all the animals.
