Living With Designer Genes

Raising a child with special needs isn't easy, but neither is raising a typical one.

Howdy Partners!




They say everything is bigger in Texas and I am finding that to be true about a lot of things, especially the summer party we went to today! We were lucky enough to be invited on over to Perry and Kelly's annual shindig again this year, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint!   From great friends, great conversation, and great  food, to bucking broncos, lasso competitions, water slides, and bounce houses. Perry and Kelly sure know how to do it up at their place,
WESTERN STYLE.
   


               
       This is the front of their house.  I love their covered wagon. they actually have several of these old wagons on their property.  There sure is something to be said for moving out in the country...........SPACE!


          
Check out the fabulous building they put up in the back of their house. Every time I see it, it gets better and better and now there is just no other word to describe it other than amazing! The mural on it is a gorgeous western scene and the inside has been converted into a real life saloon! 


  Okay, so maybe this part of the party wasn't exactly western, but it was a cool way to cater a party and to bring in a little bit of Perry's roots, since he is actually from across the pond.  Whatever you wanted, you just walked up to the bus window and they handed it out to you! I wanted to go inside that bus and walk up the stairs so bad!




Sarah gave the bucking bronco a try.......for a whole two seconds when she was thrown into the air. After Brooke saw that, she wasn't going anywhere near that thing.


Here are some pictures from inside the saloon. It is so creative and everybody completely got into the fun!


Yeah, cowboy hats were a staple item at this party and the band rocked it out.




Even Roy Rogers made an appearance!


It was a fun and exhausting time for everyone where we all giddied up till we were ready to drop.  Thank heavens, the two little cow gals are now snug in their beds and the pillow is calling this Madame's name.
