And finally...Braxtyn got a potty...she hasn't officially used it, but we have spent hours sitting there! She couldn't be happier about the potty...
Braxtyn's little legs just aren't quite long enough to ride this just yet solo. She finally got her daddy to sit on it, but his legs were way too long. So I get on and take off for a ride, hoping that the thing didn't crater on me! Braxtyn decided that she wanted to ride with me. Thankfully, no pictures were taken of that! So we ride from the back of the house to the front and the dogs start barking like crazy. So we ride back to the back of the house and Daizie just won't let up. Bryan looks over the back of the fence and says, "I think there may be a hornet back there, I hear something buzzing." From this point, freaking out starts in. He looks over the fence and says, "No, more like a hiss...I know what has been living in that hole."
So I have known that the hole was there, but actually knowing what was living in there freaks me out! Bryan went inside to get a gun to kill the "little snake," that's what he told me. Well, since I am in freak out mood, I already have Braxtyn in my arms so now I have to say my dogs! I open the gate, Kyzer immediately ran out and Daizie right behind him. I looked over and "little snake" my ass! That damn snake was at least 4 foot long!!!!! GROSS!!!! I slam the door and all my babies go into the garage and await for Bryan to save us. Bryan shots the giant snake with a 22 rifle...so not to my satisfaction! I told him I wanted to hear a big boom! Kill the nasty thing dead! I have mixed feeling about posting the next pic, but you gotta see this. And notice that you can't even see the whole thing!
After this whole ordeal and Bryan knows jut how freaked out I am he proceeds to tell me his thoughts. This snake is rather large and has to have lived here for awhile. We have lived her for 4 years and Bryan has seen snakes on and off, little ones he tells me, but I have never seen one. He proceeds...the driveway is sinking and th snake holes are right at the site of concern. Could it be possible that we have lived with this snake for years and it has hollowed out the ground below our driveway? Is that possible? Seems unlikely, but makes me wonder?
Although, it didn't take long for Braxtyn to get the hang of it...
Braxtyn screamed at that the thought of putting the harnass on, but Kenadi was a big girl and endured the unknown and towards the end of her ride, she kind of decided it was cool.
Overall, the girls had a blast and I personally can't wait until next week. Hopefully next week, Bryan will get some pics of the girls stretching. That was absolutely cute!
On our way home we stopped to get some pizza. Brax never eats pizza and to our surprise, the little nugget ate it!
After munching on some pizza, we headed outside...Brax rode her four-wheeler, Daddy watered the yard, Braxtyn helped water the yard, and Mommy followed Braxtyn around capturing all the fun!
We all enjoyed relaxing in the Frio River and soaking up some sun. Braxtyn started off a little iffy about the water, but soon figured it all out and had a blast. She spent her time on the river throwing rocks and collecting a few in her bubble bottle. And of course, there was all that time hanging around camp. She absolutely loves having tea parties with her Minnie and babies. She quickly caught onto the camping life.
