Horseback Riding in Idaho

One of Lissie's favorite things to do on the rare occasions when we make it to Idaho is to go horseback riding with her Uncle Jimmy and Aunt DeAnn (and this time even - cousin Cameron). They all spoiled both Lissie and Emily with a whole morning of horseback riding. Then they took Lissie to the authentic cowboy store, D&B, where she longed for some very pricey cowboy boots.  Lucky for her, she brought home a token horseshoe by which to remember her fun-filled day.  (Emily, Annabelle and I were off running fabric store errands at that point).

Here is the evidence of their genuine cowgirl experiences:

Just look at those smiles!

Thank you so much Uncle Jimmy, Aunt DeAnn and Cameron. 

You are the best!

Dance Photoshoot in Dallas

We had a one day layover in Dallas before we continued on to Salt Lake City for the "girls reunion", a couple of weddings and a graduation.  We were so happy to spend this one day with Lauren, Steve and Cole.  Lauren was so sweet to take Lissie out on the day we arrived for a special dance photoshoot.  Here are just a few of the fabulous pictures she took:

Thank you so much, Lauren. 

You are a wonderful big sister!
