Summer 2016

So far this summer has been SOOO WARM!!!  We have been in the pool almost Everyday multiple times.  Except for today it is raining and 62 degrees.  Joey and Justin played Tball they were on the same team.  Jacob did not play ball this year.  He has been working with uncle Dick.  Dick comes to get him around 9 and brings him home around 5.  He has been using Dick dart gun to shoot calves for pink eye, put out mineral, gets groceries and anything else Dick need.  He is also getting ready for the County Fair which starts Wed. the 6th.  We are taking 5 animals.  Jacob is taking  2 heifers, a cow calf pair and then Justin is taking Michaelangelo.  Joey and Justin will show in the pee wee wrangler show.  It will be tons of fun..... (MAYBE).  Jeremy spent almost every free minute he had building fence on the new farm.  He pounded over 150 steel post in by hand. We have not had rain so it was some hard ground!!!  In fact he broke the handle off his post pounder.  IT has just been the normal crazy, busy, loud place!!! 

Jacob and Beauty

 Jacob is in and advertisement with his heifer Beauty.


This young man, Jacob Novak, is working hard this year with his heifer, Beauty. She will definitely be a beauty with the help of a New Balance Commodities custom blend from starting on feed as a young calf and now as a yearling. Jacob is showing her for Dick Graham of Benton, Iowa. You can find Jacob and Beauty at the Ringgold County Fair, Iowa State Fair 4-H show, and the Iowa State Fair Polled Hereford show. If you stop by the Ringgold County Fair on Saturday, July 9th for the beef show, stop by and see New Balance Commodities!
