Foto Phriday: Yeehaw, Pards!

20 May

Welcome to Foto Phriday! A collection of images from the past week that I plan on making a regular feature at SSETY!

Until next week when I forget to take any pictures. Or come up with something better. Believe me, if you feast on consistency, you’re going to starve around these parts.

Saddle up.

If you haven’t done so, or even if you have, please go check out StuffKidsWrite.com, a project that I’m collabing on with the lovely and talented and humorous and Canadian Leanne Shirtliffe. Click here to read today’s post, which deomonstrates the unconditional devotion kids have to their moms.

 Right up until they don’t. In writing, one word can make all the difference. You’ll see what I mean.

And please submit humorous writing from your kids to stuffkidswrite@gmail.com.  Leanne promises she’ll send you a can of Elsinore beer if you do.

Also, if you’d like to read a piece where I write with a different voice (almost adult-like) you can check out this sports feature that I wrote for the Billings Gazette on Kick Ass Wife’s cousin. He won the high jump and placed second in the long jump at the state track meet yesterday, and tomorrow he’ll vie for titles in the 110 and 300 meter hurdles. He’s a neat young man, and you can only imagine how my crew looks up to him.

Happy trails, y’all!

    P-Motion looks almost as good with facial hair as you do, Chase! Love the sunglasses on #4 too!

    Have a fun weekend…

    And now, I want to go ride some horses.

    (mostly because I love Benadryl.)

    Love the pictures. Your family is adorable. And wear facial hair well.

      Thanks, Julie. Actually having my morning cup of Benadryl right now.

    Any other promises you’re making on my behalf? ;)

    Great article. Geez, you grow ‘em tough in Wyoming.

    And PMo rocking the Magnum PI look. Love that. Goatee next, please.

      Well, I did mention that anyone submitting to StuffKidsWrite.com within the next 20 minutes would receive a free Ironic Mom shoehorn.

      • Leanne Shirtliffe (Ironic Mom) May 22, 2011 at 2:24 pm #

        I got a bit nervous there for a minute. Until I read “shoehorn.” Wasn’t quite sure what noun would appear there…

        I should have just left it blank and people could use their imaginations.

    My oldest loves horses, but she has to down the Benadryl like Slim.

    The 80s ‘stache is great.

    • Chase McFadden May 21, 2011 at 6:48 am #

      Those allergies are a booger, aren’t they? I feel bad because I don’t think that Slim has ever known what healthy feels like. But he doesn’t complain.

      Not sure why 80s staches ever left.

    Jammied kids are so darn cute. And mustachioed kids are a pretty close second.

    • Chase McFadden May 21, 2011 at 6:48 am #

      Mustachioed jammied kids really are the ultimate in adorability.

    Do you live in Billings?

    Great pics and that article in the BG is great! Are you going to write for them more? Congrats on that. You really are good man.

    • Chase McFadden May 22, 2011 at 10:50 am #

      Thanks, Clay. I’m hoping to do some more freelance work for them.

    So they’re all coming bullriding with me next time?

Say it don't spray it...
