Seminary Graduate!

Sandra graduated from Seminary tonight!  4 years of early morning seminary done!  She loved her teachers, Sister Acker and Sister Salter.  Way to go Sandra!

 

Fencing Again

We are getting going on pasture 4's last fence line area!  I cut down this tree that was in the way.  Then the kids helped put up t-posts and set up h braces.  Then we ran barbed wire on the line between us and the neighbor.  That should stop the other neighbor's cows from trespassing!

Also, the little calves are growing and so cute!  

 

44 Years Already!

My birthday fell on Saturday this year... ranch day.  It was a good productive day.  That night Jeff and I went out to dinner.  Everywhere was booked because of Mother's Day tomorrow.  We ended up at Braums which was great.  It's always nice to spend time together!  Sandra had made me a cheesecake so when we got home, we did presents and dessert with the kids.  It was a nice day!

 

Trouble Makers!

It may have taken a few days, but the bison sure left me a surprise!  They got into the riomax!  Oh man!  Such a mess and waste!  I think they messed up 6 bricks!  I guess bison can't be trusted when you let them roam the compound!  Total bummer!

 

Grandpa Help!

It's always great when Jeff's dad comes to town.  He is a great help on some of our projects!  He fixed a leaking pipe on our irrigation system.  Clark was his assistant.  They did a great job!  He even got power set up at the little house so we can use power tools easier when we start building. I love getting projects done!

 

Taking Over

We set up the main compound area so that we could let the bison in to graze down the grass.  It was crazy to show up the next day and have bison all over the place!  They nibbled the hay, but for the most part they were pretty good!  It's crazy to see them out and about!  We even let out our mini herd to eat the grass by the squeeze chute.  I will say they are good little mowers!

Oh, and we are making progress on the last line for pasture 4!  I got brace wire set up on some of the h braces!  Pasture 4 will be up and running before we know it!

 

Permitted!

Mhari got her permit!  Time to start the process of teaching driving to my teen all over again!  They really do grow up too quickly!  16 will be here before we know it!
