Am I a Taylor? a Gypsy? or both!

We moved from This..

To this...

Gypsies are defined as "persons of nomadic habit of life, (with the last name Taylor) whatever their race or origin, (Taylor) but does not include members of an organized group of traveling showmen, or persons engaged in traveling circuses, traveling together as such.", this definition includes such groups as New Age Travellers, as well as Irish Travellers (did I mention the last name is Taylor)

You know you've had enough of winter when...

You see this!!!

Road Art

West has this habit of watching for pictures in the tar that fills the cracks of the asphalt. So far we've found a smiley face in Diamond Valley, Utah and on SR 18 by snow canyon there is a palm tree and a circle B. All these pictures are on the road from Richfield to Loa over the Fish Lake Mountain. Shay and her friends decided to pull over and take pictures of them this is her and the Giant Spider

Marissa and the little spider

Big fish chasing little fish

Oh, Deer

Makell and the bear paw, we've also seen someones initials and the name Ted.

Small town news

Shay has made the local paper 3 times since we moved here last November. Two of the times she was on the front page. She wrote a letter as an assignment for school. She chose to write to Montana Silversmith and ask for a belt buckle. And They sent her one. Some of the other kids wrote to movie stars and asked for autographs or pepsi and asked for Mtn Dew.

Branding Bologna!
Some how this will prepare you for branding real animals. Shay has already had the opportunity last year to brand real cattle for the Hughe's out on the Arizona strip. She said she likes the smell

Giving shots to oranges and banana's will help to prepare her to give shots to her livestock someday. And YES she has already done this in real life too. She has given shots to both horses and cattle. She's quite the little farm girl.
