Life is Changing

Hard to believe all the boys are in school this year.  I am so thankful all of our children are able to go to school.  Sometimes you just forget about all the close calls you have in life.  I found this saying and I think it fits my boys well.  I know I will Thank God tonight for watching over all my boys and me.

State Fair

We had a fun time at the State Fair.  Jacob showed his Polled Hereford heifer in the open show.  It has been many years since we have shown at the fair.  We seemed to get right back in the routine.  The second day we were there it was so cold we had to wear sweatshirts and jeans.   Jacob showed Thursday morning, then as soon as he was done it was time to get ready for our award.  Jeremy received his Century farm award.  It was a very proud moment for Jeremy.  We were so glad my parents were there to take pictures.  we are hoping the picture they are sending to us turned out better!!!  Then right after that we changed back to old clothes and went to load all the tack and heifer up to come home.  It was a busy couple days but Jeremy has already mentioned next year and that hopefully we can get a Exhibitor Camping spot.  

The boys were invited to a VIP event with the lady that makes the Butter Cow!! 

Back to school

Summer has come to an end.  THe boys were up and ready for school.  Joey will be in Kindergarten and Jacob will be in 5th grade.  Justin gets to have an extra week at home before preschool starts.  Joey has 2 of his cousin in his class.  Then Wyatt is in Kindergarten too but has a different teacher.  So time for crazy, busy schedules and lots of learning.  There were NO TEARS today!!!  YEAH
