Things have been really busy, so this is a pretty long post.. We've been camping, fourwheeling, BBQ-ing, parade-ing, rodeo-ing and of course.. DERBY-ing!!!

The week of the 24th Tims family always camps all week long, its so nice up there. During our camping trip we took a 50 mile fourwheeler ride, and yes we took Mckray with us. He loves riding on the fourwheeler and didn't whine at all during the whole 6 hours we were gone. It was an amazing, beautiful ride. Here are some pictures of our camping/fourwheeling trip...

This is our tree.. we first carved our names in it in 2004 and have been there every year since. except 2006- which is the year we got married and I'm pretty bummed about it.

I didn't get any pictures of him in action, I was too busy recording it, but here are the after pictures.. it's not as damaged as Tim would've liked it, but at least he can use it for next year. I think he did a great job!

I love this picture.. after Tim unloaded the car, he had my little brother go and park it, Cassidy was in heaven! Isn't Tim amazing!?



some of my most favorite people in the world at the derby!

It was so cute.. on Saturday Tim had to go put everything away from the derby so I told him that I was going to go to the little cowboy expo at the park with my family {since my grandparents were selling tickets} anyway about 20 minutes later, Tim came up in his "cowboy clothes" {as he refered to them as, since it was rodeo day..} I was a little surprised, but he looked so handsome!


And lastly, we were in the horse parade this year.. my Grandpa built a wagon for his mules to pull and he's usually in the parades, well they told us that the city gives you free rodeo tickets if you ride in the parade, so we decided to take them up on the offer. Mckray was so cute, there was a baby mule walking to the side of him and he loved it, he starred at it the whole time and even got to pet it!


I LOVE where we live.. and I LOVE this time of year!!!

First of all.. thanks to all of you who voted and left words of wisdom.. we've taken all of that into consideration and here's the final decision....

Today was Mckray's first haircut.. I was really sad to let all of that hair go. Do you know how much heartburn I had to have for that hair? Anyway, I figured that since it was so out of control and uneven, I would cut it and let it grow kinda longer and do it curly- I called Brenda {my beloved hair stylist} and she fit me right in.. I was nervous to see how Kray was going to act so I stopped and bought him a sucker {totally against everything I believe in :) } Once we got there and I popped that sucker in his mouth he was in heaven. He was such a good boy during the whole thing- he didn't fuss at all, he throws more of a fit when I get him dressed than he did with getting his haircut! Needless to say, Brenda did an amazing job {as always}. I loved his handsome curls, but I guess it was time for a haircut. I think that my baby looks adorable!! What do you think?

HELP!

Ok, so here's the latest Lindsay-Tim debate.. What are we going to do with Mckray's hair? Some of you may already know that my little bug has naturally curly hair, and those of you who didn't.. well, surprise! Anyway, its now to the point where if I try to comb it straight, the tops of it will straighten, but the ends wave and do weird, funky things. So I know you're thinking well just let it do its little curly thing, right? Well we try that, and it looks so cute on him when its wet and gelled and stuff, but if he sleeps on it, rubs it, and kinda messes it up well let me tell you- it goes into this major weird fro, fuzzy thing- and I hate it! So I suggested to Tim that maybe we should just cut it kinda short and it would be so much easier to manage and wouldn't look so out of control.. but being the man he is, Tim thinks it looks just fine when we do it curly and it frizzes and fros- he thinks that Kray is too young for a hair cut! So, I've posted a few pictures of his hair kinda curly, and straight. They're not the best pictures but they'll have to do. I've also set up a poll at the top of my blog for you to vote..
WHAT SHOULD WE DO WITH MCKRAY'S HAIR? Please help me!!
