One thing that we did get at the tractor show was a cowboy hat for Jacob.  Apparently they don’t make cowboy hats for babies, at least we couldn’t find any, but we found some kid sized ones, Jacob was asleep in his carrier at the time so we couldn’t try it on him, but he has a big noggin so we figured it would be close enough.  It was a tad bit too big, but he wore it proudly! Just pretend that his jumper is in fact a horse

Who doesn’t like to go for a ride in the morning in your PJs and cowboy hat?

I mean it is great exercise and the perfect way to start your day

Giddy up!!

And my absolute favorite picture of my boys is now this one

My brother and sister in law bought a ranch about 10 minutes away from my parents.  So we went over there one day and looked at the house and property.  I absolutely love old barns and have always wanted to do some pictures in a rustic beat up barn and my brother had one.  So we found a spot along a wall and set up some hay and had a little photo shoot.  My mom was holding Jacob while I was getting the settings on my camera ready and they looked so cute, I started snapping.

Then we got my dad and Jane in the picture and Jane and Jacob had to say their hello’s before we could get down to business.

Then everyone was all smiles 🙂

After taking a bunch of pictures, we realized that Jacob didn’t have his cowboy hat on, so of course, we had to take more.

Then it was mom and dad’s turn

Our handsome little cowboy

Back at my parents ranch it was a beautiful evening so we spent some time out on the porch.  If you remember the pictures we took with the tractors last year, you will recognize this one

We had lots of good old fashioned playtime

On our last night there, my parents neighbors came over to visit and meet Jacob.

My brother and his wife came over and we ended our trip with a family dinner.

We had such a good time and really enjoyed the relaxing (but busy) time away from home.  We didn’t get the extra third seat on the plane ride home, but Jacob was such a good little traveler and slept the entire flight! Grandma and Grandpa wore him out!
