Birthday Boy

Today is Brant's birthday!! We decided to celebrate yesterday since I have class most of today and tonight. Yesterday we just got to hang out and spend some time together. Last night we went out to dinner to celebrate and then we went over to my Mom's house to eat some cake. Poor kid, I must have worn him out yesterday because he fell asleep at his own party. Haha! It was fun just being able to just be together and go on a little date. Happy Birthday Babe!

Today Was The Day!!

Today was definitely a GOOD DAY!! We were finally able to get water hooked up out on the land where we keep our horses. Normally, Brant has to load up some jugs or barrels and we would have to haul water out there everyday. It is not fun at all. I worried all the time that something was going to happen, like smash out the back window to the truck! We have gone through four back windows in our truck in the last year and a half that we have owned it so far, and Yes, the barrels do get tied down. It's pathetic! And expensive to replace I might add.

Here is my love working away!

Brant's dad Billy and grandpa Floyd came out to help him dig trenches and lay down the pipes. Me and Jo Ellen (his grandma) just got to hang out all day and gossip. Thanks everybody for all the help! I am so excited! Never again will I have to haul water. Now all I have to do is just turn on the facet!

Surprise!!

Yesterday I was just hanging out and I realized that I hadn't seen Brant in a while. I started looking around the house and couldn't find him. I walked outside and to my surprise, this is what I found....

I was so dang excited to see my Hubby hard at work. It made my whole day!! :) Especially since I didn't even have to ask him to wash the truck! I know this is totally the lamest thing ever, but when it will make your wife happy....what can I say?

Come to find out...for one reason or another there was a whole mayonnaise container out in the middle of the road next to our truck. Someone had ran it over and it seriously exploded all over the truck! So my loving husband cleaned it all off in the 100 degree weather just so I wouldn't have to deal with it....what a Great guy! I love good surprises!!...who doesn't!?

Prize Winner

Okay so, cool story. Brant went out to the horse races this last Saturday, I wasn't able to go because I had to work. He thinks it's pretty fun, I don't understand it personally. I don't know, I guess I just can't really get into the whole thing. Well, they were raffling some stuff off out there and Brant bought a ticket. Long story short....HE WON!! He was so dang excited when he called me at work to tell me! He got the 3rd prize which was originally a $600 COWBOY HAT that he WON after buying a $1.00 raffle ticket!!!! Yeah...That is a SMOKIN' DEAL!!! It's pretty cool for being nearly free.

Brant's Hunt

Brant got drawn for deer this year. He was gone for almost a whole week. I think that is the longest we have ever been apart. It was hard this year because he didn't see any bucks. It was a close call, it took until the last day of the hunt before he finally shot one! It wasn't a trophy buck, but he was excited because he was the only one out of all of his buddies that got one this year!
