Three Generations of Hickman's on Horseback (Miles, my Dad - Jack, myself and my brother Mark)
Fine weather in February made for a good Trail class clinic
Charisma was not so sure about the bridge
The Go-Texan team penning was held on a cold February day and was a win for the Senior team for Fort Bend County
The junior team for Fort Bend wasn't as lucky, but they still had fun!
Lauren, Clay and Tara also competed at the Go-Texan and had practiced at the ranch
The first 4H point show brought out all in the best finery
Emma and Gabe getting ready for the first 4H point show of the year
What a motley crew attended the Houston Livestock and Rodeo

Clueless the first of our 2006 crop of fillies
Cinca was the second and last arriving on Cinco de Mayo
And how they have grown.
Even on a trip to Stockholm Sweden, we keep horses on our minds
Sara Robinson, Kyle and Lynn became proud horses owners this year.
Summer brought camps, heat and humidity, with the later two not bothering the first
Miles getting ready to rope at the 4H district finals, then onward to State Finals
We also opened up new pastures this summer at the ranch
And the Fall rains reclaimed the pastures for the wet season.
Fall brought back the Chutes and Barrel competition once again
And through it all we have enjoyed, your company, and companionship while sharing your passion for horses, good people and good times
Though we never know what the future may bring, we look forward to sharing our ranch with you all in New Year. Happy Holidays and wishing you all the Happiest of New Years!
