Happy Dog Days! This week Jessie and her husband Chad argue about which hurts worse, crashing your bike on pavement or gravel. It gets deep I tell you. Chad shares all his major bike injuries and how it got him in trouble because it was the '80s and moms were mean in the '80s. Then, of course, they get interrupted by the girls, so they weigh in on their most recent and traumatic bike crash. Jessie shares the column of the same name and stocks up on Band-Aids.

This week Jessie catches up with her husband outside on the deck where the birds are chirping and a sudden shift of wind sends them inside. She shares the key wardrobe item she recently forgot to put on for a public appearance and then contemplates what it means when her five-year-old describes moms as "struggling." Seriously. Because maybe she is. Maybe we all are. And maybe we should just own it.

Papa Gene comes in at the end of their visit to talk about actual work, and it sounds like Jessie might get her chance to be in charge of the Bobcat after all.

Stay to listen to her column at the end, a sweet story about a character who wore holes in his boots dancing during the Korean war.

This week we're a little late in catching up due to celebrating the life of our grandma Ginny. Jessie sits down in the kitchen with her little sister to talk about celebrating her life and this conversation is a real glimpse into what Jessie's house is like when all the girls are together--you can hear them screaming and laughing in the background the entire time, interrupting them for tick checks and a missing stuffed animal.

Jessie talks about a new music video she's working on and how the song is inspired by her little sister's dating history...

Like always, Jessie shares her column.

This week Jessie catches her husband up on her week spent in Nashville recording her new album, "Yellow Roses."

This week Jessie and her husband Chad catch up on getting back on the horses in the spring, Jessie's dad's horse-whispering skills and some of their epic horse wrecks.

They also catch up on Jessie's Nashville plans and how Chad had to rescue Jessie once again from the side of the road.

Jessie reads her column of the same name.
