This Easter weekend we had an opportunity to head up to our Bishop's Family Ranch in Tucumcari New Mexico the help with the Branding.It was so nice to get away from the city!!! The kids and I were able to spend almost every minute outside and just relax! It was so wonderful. It was windy, but we did not mind.Spring time in New Mexico means-WIND NON STOP! and with the wind is dirt. People say you watch Arizona blow to Texas each spring. You can literally see dirt build up on you and your clothes when you are outside. Emmaline had the opportunity to go out with Samuel on her own horse and round up the cows the day before. The day of the Branding she was able to go gather cows with the bishops mom and son. Samuel was not there to help her, but they said she did great! She really felt big--I felt nervous!and very much relieved when I saw her come back over the hill with the cows. The branding took more time than we had anticipated so we ended up being there for Easter, which worked out well. They had an egg hunt for all the kids and treats. They did not want to leave. They had dirt, open spaces, horses to ride,cows to watch, water to play in and more dirt!
