Guess???

Guess what we did yesterday????




Finally, after several missed attempts due to the weather....we woke up to a beautful day of sunshine, NO wind, NO rain...just a perfect day given to us by God!


And...so, now all our babies have their very own ear (rings :D) Sorry, I couldn't resist! And, those babies that were bull calves are now offically steer calves...not that they like that a whole lot either :D
I'm not picture/photo taking savvy like most of my friends...(besides my Mr. would NEVER stand still for it to happen...) so, I don't have any other shots of the fun....but, I'm hoping to catch a few today of the babies sporting their new team attire (as in their brand)!
Overall, I have to say it was a good day...my nephew came and helped us...(Thank YOU so much Eric) and, for once my job didn't have to be pushing the cattle up from behind :D Instead, I just got to catch them in the squeeze chute...help tip the calf table over...get the ear tags set-up, and occassionally, I got to run the shears (or clippers as I like to call them :D)
And, the BEST part...is I managed to escape getting covered in anything green :D (I hope you can guess what I'm talking about?!?!) And, that's not an easy thing to do with you are surrounded by a herd of cattle...who don't like the event anymore than I do!
Hope everyone else found great ways to enjoy the sunshine too....may your Sunday be just as bright! Sweet blessings!
