I know I'm pathetic

I've neglected this blog long enough. I can't believe I have never changed my background for this long. I'm sure all my friends and family are way past sick of it. Anyway, I just want to apologize right now for the typo in my new header. Yes I had a kid on my lap and I do know how to spell bunhouse oh I mean Bunkhouse. Okay, I know thats not funny but right now it is to me. he he. It gets pretty pathetic around here in the humor department. Anyway, I will be fixing this blog shortly but not today. Enjoy the change -spelling errors and all-.

Demolition Derby at the County Fair

The Bunker's had their annual "Red Neck" night on Saturday. We started out having dinner at David's sister Gayle's home. We had hot dogs, hamburgers, creamy jello, beans, and potato salad. Yummy!

Then we went to the fair grounds and listened to really loud music while cars hit each other. Braxton loved it! Jennica, not so much. She wasn't feeling well and I considered staying home with her but at $10.00 for a pre-paid ticket I hated to do that. I gave her motrin, packed a blanket and she seemed to do fine. I know I'm a bad Mom. But, hasn't everyone done that at least once? Especially since she was on the tail end of it. Off the subject but why are kids getting sick in the summer anyways? Wierd.

Anyways, we had tons of fun and are looking forward to doing the same thing next year. I highly recommend it.

The Cars and The Crashes



Jennica's personal favorite car:



The People: Did I mention their were some real rednecks there?


Braxton loved the car crashes the best!

Kitties

Our Cat Princess had what I hope will be her last bunch of kitties this week. She really struggled with the delivery. The kids got to watch her deliver because she actually wanted the emotional support (I think?) It was wierd because she came to find us with a kitten 1/2 hanging out and then plopped herself down on the lawn after every one was all assembled. She had two still births and labor was forever. Anyways, I'll make she is done. The kids are really enjoying their new kittens though.

Daniell Bement

I just posted on my photography blog the pictures that I took of the Bement baby. What an absolute doll! Thought I would just let the people in my neighborhood see them.

David's new horse sale

David usually hosts a horse sale called Remuda Roundup every August. This year we are doing it on line. Feel free to check out the horses he has for sale. His 2009 Foal Crop was amazing! We are also very pleased that our stallion Buck's N Moore is now a World Show Qualifier. He will be competing in Oklahoma City in November.

Mesa Verde

To me this was the highlight of our trip. I've seen the towers of Tikal in Guatemaula and I think these ruins are just as neat. It really gives you an idea of how they lived.

It was really neat because it could be 120 degrees outside but under the rock it was 20 degrees cooler. It felt like air conditioning to us. Again we didn't have Air in our Motor home this day.

This area is so close to us I can't believe we haven't explored this more. We only had time to visit one ruin but there are several around the area to see. Plus next to Mesa Verde is the Ruins of the Ancients that can be explored as well. David and I definately want to go back down to see spend a week down there.

Four Corners

We went to the four corners. It was fun to shop in the little Indian trading posts. Each kid got a necklace. Braxton's had a little baseball on it. Unfortunately Braxton broke his about an hour after he got it. He didn't want to wear it around his neck. Instead he wanted to tie his money in it. Didn't work.

It was about 115 degrees here. We were really hot and the generator went out in the motor home so we were hot in the trailer too. Our kids did tremendous though. They were such troupers.

Our Trip

On the way home from our trip we stopped in Texas at theAQHA Headquarters to take some pictures. Unfortunately you won't see me in any of these pictures because I was in our Motor Home taking care of Braxton who had come down with the stomach flu. Bad timing. Luckily it only lasted about twelve hours and most of it was at night.

Buckskin World Show

We had a lot of fun driving in a Motor Home with our kids to Tulsa Oklahoma to watch our stallion Bucks N Moore compete. He took home three reserve grand championship and placed in two other events besides. He's been in training since the spring and has qualified to compete in the AQHA world show in November in Oklahoma City. Were really excited about how well he is doing.
