Weekend

Well this weekend was our big cattle cut and drive. We headed over to help my dad with everything . But first Saturday we had a little fun. Grandma busted out the water slide and the kids had a ball.
Tanner heading down.


Sunday was the big cow day. Stetson on the fence sizing things up. He isn't sure if he's ready to take the plunge into the corral or not.



Tanner is checking things out also. He hung on the fence but their was no way he was getting in.

Lainee in the back of the truck. That was as far as I could get her for the first 20 min. It took her awhile to warm up.

Preslie on the other hand had no fear. She wanted to get in with the calves so bad she kept trying to crawl through the gate. Ron and sheena finally had to take turns and carry her in by the cows.

Ron getting into the routine.
The men and boys roping the next calf. Austyn was cheering because he thought it was him that snagged this one.
Heading up to horse valley with the cows.
Tanner and Stetson with uncle clint herding cows

Still herding cows!!!!!!!!!
The trek was long and hot and by the time we reached horse valley I was too wore out for anymore pictures. It was a good time though. My kids really look forward to this every year as do I.

Sorry that it took me like 5 minutes to wave to you when we saw you at KB. I wasn't even paying attention and didn't recognize it was you. Anyway, looks like you guys had fun. I remember doing this when I was a kid.

I have to say I'm glad I've never done that- it's good you can do things with family though. And I'm usually free, just give me a call and we'll go do something!
