Playing at the Ranch

We got to spend April Fool's Day (Happy Birthday, Kim!!!) at the Dimple Hills Ranch with some of our favorite people here in Texas!!!  

Walter, Shelby and Josh frying up the fish for lunch. 

 This is a close as Shelby would get to Buster and Hank when we got to the Ranch - they had to be behind the gate for her to be on the ground, otherwise Daddy had to be holding her.

Ty playing with Vivian and Shelby.

DUNE BUGGIES!!!  Oh my was I a happy camper!  And I (Sharon) got to drive - so much fun! 

Shelby having a laugh with her buddies, Red and Walter.  She was telling them that we were going to the Ranch...she thinks the Ranch is where the horses are and she didn't understand that the whole place, including the house, was the Ranch.  We all had a good laugh with our sweet Shelby-girl. 

After some whooping and hollaring by TJ and Janet the horses came to eat some feed while we looked at them.  Beautiful creatures!  Vivian, again, loved the cows; I guess she loves them because they are loud, mooing and talking back to her.

Shelby had a blast on the dune buggies - heck, we all did!  

Shelby on Daddy's shoulders, hiking around a bit. 

After feeding the horses we went arrowhead hunting.  Shelby, Janet and Josh lasted the longest and TJ was the only one to find a arrowhead, which he graciously gave to Shelby.  

And would you look at this!?!?!  Shelby got comfortable with Hank and at the end of the day the dogs were running from her - quite the change from the morning.  

It rained as we were leaving and that made for a very pretty drive from the Ranch to Marathon.  

We are so blessed to have met the Groths!  We love you, Walter and Janet!  And Red & Patty and TJ & Traci & Peyton & Tyson!  :) 

What a fun day - great memories made.
