Branding - November 15, 2014
It's always a fun day, especially when the kids and grandkids come home to help. Cash and Annie and Penny and sic of their friends from Colorado came to enjoy the weekend. Tim and Janel and Jakob, Josh, Jon, Mattie, Ben, Joe, Millie and Willa all came too! It was a full house. All of Cash's friends slept two nites on the living room floor! It's like camping! The weather was beautiful. We only had 19 calves to brand. Done in 1 hour! But it was still an event

Banding is always an eventful time filled with family, love, laughter, work, play. Lots of memories. It's an eventful "ranch" experience on our little acreage farm!
