We lost Skipper today in an accident.  Poor Simon just sobbed.  My heart just hurts for him…I thought Skipper would be seeing him off to college like my Bonnie sent me off. Andrew, just this morning, told me how he finally felt like he and Skipper were able to communicate well and he was telling me about how Skipper was showing good cow sense during morning chores.  If you have a little room in your prayers please say some prayers for little Simon and our family.  Today we lost our companion, guard, and friend.  

Ever since we moved in, Andrew has wanted a red checkered tablecloth.  I finally found one at a price that I liked.  I really like how it looks, that man has taste!

A good day with some challenges & happy accomplishments!

One year ago, these two, were wonderful miracles in the making, now they are big enough to sit for a picture!

There’s been a lot of  kind-hearted folks over the years who have helped us out trailing our cattle to pastures. It was nice to have an opportunity for the boys and I to help with a trail drive today.

The three boys went and picked and husked 7 cobs for a treat tonight!   So tasty!!!

I was going through some old photos looking for one for my brother, but I found this one instead.  I hope all of my children develop a close bond with a “Creature of Our God and King” that leads them to happy memories.  I sure have happy memories of my Bonnie.

We processed 2 boxes of Faye Alberta peaches.  

We had to move our bigger herd to a connected pasture, we did that on Sunday.  We realized it was a three generation cattle drive!
