Girls FUN!

 

Girls Camp Drop Off

This year for Girls' Camp they rented out space at the local college.  The girls got to stay in the dorms and have fun in downtown Tyler.  They ended the last day at Tyler Lake to cool off.  I think they had a great time.  It was strange to be down to just one girl!  Stay tuned for a photo dump from the fun things they did!

 

Blue Eyes

After just one short year in glasses, Mhari has joined the contact club!  She was so happy to get contacts!  Lucky for her she got them right before girls camp!  She is just growing up too quickly!

 

Pounding Away

Time to keep working on fencing!  The missionaries have been so helpful to get our next pasture under way.  If we can set up the h braces and t-posts, then we are prepared for them to come work on Saturday.  With Sandra's work schedule she's not available to work at the ranch very often.  Looks like it's time for the younger kids to step up!  This was Mhari's first time using the t-post pounder.  Also, Clark's first time leveling the t-posts.  It wasn't perfect, but we got the job done!  

 

You're in the Country

One day at church Jeff was talking to a lady and her family in the foyer.  The lady's purse started moving and two things fell out.  Then they started moving on the ground.  Someone pointed them out to her, and she picked them up.  Jeff mentioned that they looked pretty cute, and she said they were her skunks.  Their mom was killed and so she was going to raise them and train them.  She said they were making noise and so she got them to go to sleep.  She said they were supposed to be sleeping.  

Seriously one of the funniest things that has happened since moving to the country!

Sorted

The calves have a new home!  After getting sorted off their moms in March we held them in the handling facility.  Now that we have two pens set up we moved them over!  I think they are loving having the grass to eat!  This is a lot more space than they had before!  I hope they love their new home!

 

Hello June

It was a beautiful day!  On the way home from the ranch we stopped at the lookout.  It was great!  When I took the kids to the church for activities the sky was amazing!  What a great evening!  Happy June everyone!
