We headed up to Taylor this past Friday for a benefit dinner in honor of Skylar's uncle that has Wagener's Disease. All we know about it is that it attacks the vascular system. I didn't get any pictures of the actual dinner and auction, but boy is it different up there than down here! The majority of people were wearing cowboy hats and the items in the auction consisted of wire wreaths, cowboy pictures, antler chandelier, stud services and many more cowboy stuff. I thought it was pretty funny. They also had a cow outside that was part of a raffle. They marked the ground with squares and put numbers in the squares and people got to choose a number and they had to wait for the cow to poop on a certain number and whoever chose that number, won the cow!
This is the Stock Up Feed and Tack store that Skylar's uncle owns in Taylor. They had their 1st Anniversary on Saturday. They served hot dogs and had roping contests.
I realized I hardly had any pictures of Daisy, so I put this one on of her in her car seat :)
This sadle is on display at the store and Slade just had to sit on it. I just saw that Sadle and Slade contain all of the same letters. Hmmm... Anyway, I told him to start riding it like it was a horse, and the wooden stand it was on started cracking and falling forward. I caught him just in time and we tried to make the stand look like it did before, but then I saw they had camera's in the store. Oh well, hopefully they won't get mad because we are family....
Skylar and Slade enjoying the party... Yeah, we had to sit on hay and when you would stand up, it all stuck to your pants. It was great. I stood up once and was brushing off and the wind took the hay over to the lady sit next to me and landed on her hot dog. 
This tractor was on Skylar's uncle's ranch and Slade LOVES tractors. I told him to stand by the tractor so I could take his picture and this is how he posed for me. I
Slade loves horses too! I think it runs in his blood because Skylar's grandpa was a bull rider and lives for horses. So does Skylar's dad and uncle. I am surprised that Slade is not afraid of them, but then again, he wanted to get into the Tiger cage at the zoo.
Skylar and Slade by the cows. They have tons of cows and Slade was in heaven of course.
Slade posing for me agian. I promise he did that all by himself!
The Thursday before we went to Taylor, we went to the Phoenix Zoo and visited the Stingray Bay exhibit. It was so neat! You just stick your hand below the water and the stingrays will swim right up to you. It was scary at first because they feel so weird and they bolt at you, but it was really fun. You all have to go! I have a membership, so the exhibit was only $1 per person. For non-members, it's $3 per person and kids 2 and under are free. Slade loved it! I didn't think he would, but he didn't want to leave.
