Mid August at Willis Creek Ranch

August 15, 2021

We had Sunday lunch at our house - Julie was out of town on a float trip with the M family so wasn't with us this day.  We enjoyed a full breakfast spread including biscuits and gravy.  :) 

Daddy and Jonathan 

Poor Marley - so idolized by Goose!  :) 

:D

Marvin encouraging Marley to 'teach' Goose some manners.  :) 

Jackson, Brianna, and Maverick returned home from the Missouri State Fair.  I enjoyed having some time with Jonathan (who had Goose), Brianna and Maverick while Jackson helped Marvin get Luna from the round pen.  Luna is not yet halter-broke and is not quite used to us yet - so sometimes she can be a trick to get.  :) 

Maverick was excited to see Goose again!

Goose might have been a tiny bit concerned... :D 

but they both get a lot of good exercise together!  :) 

Maverick with his determined little walk - heading to the horse barn.  :) 

He needed to check things out since he had been gone...

Jackson working with Luna

time for a little sandbox play

sweet  :)

this boy never stops!!  :) 

It was SUCH a beautiful day!

No trip to WCR is complete without some time spent in the tractor.  :)

I was singing the part from 'Wheels on the Bus' about the horn going 'beep, beep, beep' and he thought that was really funny.  :)  Too bad the tractor doesn't have an actual horn!  :) 

"the horn on the tractor goes beep, beep, beep!"

Here are some video snippets from the day.
