Farmer Erika...

I learned how to drive the tractor this weekend!

I helped Mike pick up hay out of the field with the Bail Waggon.

In these pictures I moved 800 lbs of hay ALL BY MYSELF, with just ONE FINGER!!!

How exciting!!!!

Mike and Melissa tied the knot!

As is our family tradition to go to Elmer's the morning of the wedding... here it is. This year we've added 2 spouses and 2 little brothers!

Melissa loved running through the field with her bridesmaids...

It was the most gorgeous day and Melissa was absolutely stunning...

China Hat ISDE in April

If you notice my riding gear: I am wearing Forrest's boots and gloves, and Matt's (brand new) riding pants. I kept the pants clean even after crashing the quad!
You can tell who was leading by who has the cleanest face and the biggest grin... Matt!
Our traditional signs!!
Lobos annual dirt bike race in April, China Hat, was great. The weather was fairly cooperative, we woke up one morning to a blanket of snow covering the ground.


The WHOLE group!
