For Memorial Day every year we brand the cattle on the ranch. This year was my first time since i didn't have to work! I was a little skeptical about the whole thing since i am such a softie for animals. I find it horrible to cut their you know what off and I didnt want to have any part in it. Well when i got there, Andrew told me they were rubber banding them off this time, so i thought i would join in. I branded and worked with the rubber bad gun thing. I didn't help wrestle any down to the ground like all the crazy men. Poor LJ got kicked a few times, one straight to the ZONE! Andrew got stepped on and all bruised up too so i figured I would do the better less painful work. Of course all the family comes up so we have a non stop weekend of play with all of our billion neices and nephews and get to join our family for some nice church time. Before we left we were able to go eat dinner with the fam at Red Onion. It's been forever since then so i don't remember half the other things that we did... sorry. What i do remember though, invloves a ride out to the ranch with Jennie and us thinking we went too far so we turned around, a truck full of dead coyotes, frezer burnt hamburger patties, frisbee golf, a stomach ache, and a newborn baby cow! Pretty eventful time. We always have a blast.
Andrew had to finish it off for me since it had to be tight enough to cut ALL circulation off.
Savannah with the baby cow.
He is pretty much the coolest guy ever. I think this was right after he was riding this cow, and of course i missed it on camera!
Andrew is teaching her bad things. Andrew says that he LIVES on Mt. Dew. She has lucky charms in her other hand
Uncle Daniel stuck Carter's shoes in his underpants! It was HILLARIOUS to watch. Sorrry CArter if this imbarrases you.:)
Poor Brooky hit her mouth and it was bleeding. Someone has to get hurt at every family gathering though right?
Everytime Andrew comes around the kids go flying...at least the ones who like it. That is Hayden up there. Kamryn used to be the one who would always want to be thrown up but since her little spiff on the mountain, she barely likes to be put over his head. I guess Hayden will have to do the job now. And as a side note, Andrew is going to be a GREAT father! I can't wait
Miss Landy got to spend the whole weekend in Heber with us since mom was sick;( She is the most adorable baby and her personality is hillarious.
