Daddy would be so proud of us working together! I loved it! Wish I lived closer to her office so I could go back to work at her office! That would be freakn awesome! We sure love our Dr. Ence! and that Penny was the best little patient! Such a trooper while we fit and glued the hebst appliance in and then was great during the bracket placement! You rock Penny!!

Bulloch Summer Jam!!

To finish off Summer Fun Wk 8 we beat the heat and headed up to our Bulloch family Ranch!! The Bulloch Summer Jam Reunion always lands on Penny's Birthday! So I packed all the things to celebrate her up at the ranch! 
Day 1- Thursday: Arrived to the Bulloch Ranch! The roads were more rough this year from all  the weather! Jimmy and Troy sure did a good job at getting the roads as clear as they could! We so appreciate all the hard work they put into keeping the ranch going! There is always a ton they do all year round! So thank you!
Having a blast with family! Kids rode their toys non stop! The weather was beautiful! 
Dinner and smores! 
Day 2- Friday: Happy 13th Birthday Penny! I woke up early and decorated the cabin! Had some help from a few of the cute cousins too! We wanted to surprise her! She finally woke  up! lol Surprise!! Happy Birthday Penny! We sure love you!!! She opened her presents! She was so excited for her new Jordan Panda shoes! I had to hunt those down too! lol
Taught Piper how to drive the mini razor! She learned so fast and did so good! We couldn't keep her out of it! She drove around all her little cousins the whole weekend! :)
Love my birthday girl! This was the first year she stayed in a tent  with her cousins! They had a blast laughing and chatting all night! Penny also was non stop driving the big razor! She even took  me around on a few rides! Love it! She's a great driver!
We did some cleaning and organizing of the cabin! Turned out so good! It's always a work in progress up there!
Lot's of riding, swinging, and eating! Cousin time is the best time!
Had to recreate the photo on the wall of chad and his co9usins with their kids! lol So funny! Cash had a blast riding his new quad up there too! The  little girls even swam for a bit! lol They took a break from driving the mini razor! lol We all loved playing games! Our favorite this time was Bank! We could not stop playing! So fun!! 
Hanging out at the ranch!
Surprised Penny with her favorite Nothing Bundt Cake- White Chocolate Raspberry for her birthday cake! We all sang to her! She loved it!
Ended the night with Smores and more Bank playing! It was great day celebrating Penny at the ranch! We love you Penny! Can't believe she is teenager! WOW! 
Day 3- Saturday! This is the day that most family comes in! We all wear our matching reunion tees too! We were off to a great fun day!
Lots of family trickled in all day! We love being with family! So fun to sit around and catch up! All the cousins just had a blast playing and riding!
We love you Grandpa Bulloch! Thanks for providing such a fun place for all the cousins and family to come together to create the best memories!
About mid day Cash was in a accident! He was driving his quad and coming up to a turn and slowed own but was hit straight on by a 2 seater razor that wasn't familiar with the narrow turn trails! He was thrown off his quad like a rag doll! He was knocked out! Thankfully he was wearing his helmet! When I got the news I was an absolute wreck! He could not move his left leg! He was in so much pain and my mama heart could not handle! Dr. Jimmy checked him out! He was already bruising and swelling on the left side of his body! Shoulder, Upper thigh and ankle! I Finally calmed down and so did Cash! He just took it easy for the rest of the day and trip! Taking it easy is hard for Cash! He is my on the go child all the time! lol But Cash and I hung out together! Played games and had Penny take us on rides! Sweet little cousin Noah- Cash's best friend didn't leave Cash's side! Sweet boy! He was so worried about him! All the other girl cousins made Cash get well notes! He loved that! They are all so sweet!  
They built a ropes course and zip line for the kids! That was totally cool! The kids all had a blast! 
It's not a summer jam unless the guns come out! lol Cash and Honz had a blast hitting all the targets!! 
We always take a big group pic of all the peeps that came out to the summer jam reunion! We had a great turn out! Besides Cash getting hit and hurt we had a wonderful time! 
More pics! Love my family so much!
Day 4- Sunday: All good things must come to an end! We spent most of the morning packing up and  cleaning! Kids continued to ride their machines! Chad pulled out the guns again to hit targets and then off the mountain we went! 
Penny caught a horny toad! Gross! lol They kids all had a blast taking turns holding it! As soon as we hit town I got Cash in for x-rays just to make sure he was good! His bruising is bad, the ankle was still swollen and he was still limping on that left leg! Well great news to report! He has a couple stress fractures in his ankle but nothing broken! Lots of tissue damage but that's having a bad bruise! We are so relieved! He got lucky! We are so blessed! I'm so happy my boy is ok! 
We look forward to getting back up at the ranch! Thanks Troy and Jimmy for keeping it going up there for all of us to enjoy! Love my family! So many great memories were made!
