Last Thursday, Kaine finished welding the gate panel for MC’s pen. Ben brought it down with the tractor, and we got it set in place. One more project officially crossed off the list!
On Friday, I hauled mineral out to the cows and horses and took advantage of the trip to get some new pictures. Toni showed horses on Saturday and managed to get even more pictures—because around here, getting good horse pictures is practically a full-time job.
We also tattooed the bulls on Saturday and moved them out of the weaning pen and into the bull pen. They’re growing, looking good, and ready for the next stage.
The Tomrens came out to look at the horses, and Toni took them around the ranch. The kids had an absolute blast!
Toni and Kade also moved Mocha and Bean up to the house. They were the last of the sold foals still out in Circle 5, so we’re making progress getting everyone where they needs to be
On Sunday, Kaine and Ben got Skip’s old pickup set up as the welding pickup. It may be an old pickup, but it has a new job—and on a ranch, that means it is officially back in business.
Jexy competed at the State Finals Games over the weekend and had a great showing! He placed fourth in both Keyhole and the California Stake Race and won two candles. We’re pretty proud of him!
Emma is borrowing Reina for the rodeo season, and she and her sister, Maddie, have been busy getting her legged up and ready to go.
And then there is Toni’s latest adventure…
Toni won a champagne filly in a raffle and we had already purchased another champagne filly. Our quest is now complete: every color of the rainbow is either already here or currently in transport!
Of course, plenty of time has also been spent playing with the puppies—which is not exactly a hardship. They are growing fast, full of personality, and looking for their own families.
🐾 If you need a puppy in your life, let me know!
