My favorite quote from this weekend came from my son. We were riding four wheelers on our camping trip and came a cross a group of riders on horseback. My son was fascinated. He shouted to them asking if they were Cowboys. He continued to talk about Cowboys the rest of the trip. So I mentioned to him that his Grandad Curt is a Cowboy and so is his Uncle Billy. So then he said as excited as I have heard him, "Oh my Gosh!!! Does that mean I am part Cowboy?!?!
I answered yes, of course. So he is 25% Italian, his dad was the last generation of the Choctaw nation so he holds a fraction of Native American, a little German, Mexican, and the rest must be Cowboy.
We all hold traits carried over from the generations that proceed us. I hope that Tanner holds on to a little bit of the Cowboy spirit. He is certainly proud to have the blood running through his veins.
He is a Natalian Germexican Cowboy!! (Native+Italian+German+Mexican+cowboy!)
