The Rodeo

Out to Pasture

Each night all the horses on the ranch ran up the mountain to spend the night in the pasture. The lead horses wore bells around their necks so they could find the horses the next morning. It really is a totally different life than here in Columbia. It is much calmer, less stressful, a relaxed way of living.

Today we are busy helping Jamie recover from his wisdom teeth removal. He took his pain medicine at 3:00 am and had a pretty good night. He has some "large" cheeks today. :) I am hoping to post pictures from our Wyo. trip by the activity and day. Not much time to start with day one right now so below are pictures of the branding of the boots. The symbol stands for Turpin Ranch. It actually looks pretty good on the boots and is most definitely a reminder of a wonderful family vacation.

A pretty view

Our family has just returned from an awesome vacation in Jackson, Wy. The weather was terrific and we are definately missing the cooler days back here in SC. This was just one of our views we feasted our eyes on each day of our trip. We stayed at the Turpin Meadow Ranch for six of our days. The Grand Teton Mountains are in the background of the picture and we just marvel at God's beauty. He is Glorious!
I am catching up on all of the laundry today. We are getting the house in order because Wed. will be a big day for Jamie. Wisdom teeth are coming out. YUCK. More pictures and stories on our vacation will be coming. I hope all of you are doing well. May God send his blessings to you today.
