Down on the farm

Wow Spring is here and summer is on the way. What a busy month we have had. April 30th Brody graduated from USU and his girls were so proud of him in his cap and gown. Good Job Dad. I hope any of you considering going back to school do it. There is always excuses to be found, but if you get in there and get the work done and pay the time it will be over before you know it. Brody was able to go to school full time, work full time, be the scout master full time, an manage to find a little time for the family and go hunting. So never say you don't have enough time.
Then down to grandpa's farm we were able to go and help brand the calves. This year we tried something new that we haven't done before. This year we roped the calves and dragged them out of the pen and then branded them. Boy did we have fun. Some of the beginner ropers could of qualified for the special Olympics. Brinlee and Haylee did not like hearing the calves cry so they helped grandma cook dinner and bring it out later.
This past week down on grandpa's farm we went down to help grandpa plant some of the garden. Then girls had fun for a minute putting the tomato plants in the hole and covering them, until they found the mud. I think the pictures say it all.

Winter

Wow has the time flown by since the last posting. Lots of fun things have taken place. Christmas has come and gone for another year. We have had 3 birthdays. And enjoyed many sleigh riding trips. My parents have also done some remodeling in the house and we were able to help with some of the fun part; distruction. Brody is back in school for his final semester as a Senior at USU and graduation is approaching fast. He can hardly wait. Well have got to go for now, but promise I will not wait so long in between posting.
