Finally Friday

If you’re waiting for things to slow down… this probably isn’t your kind of life

We wrapped up a great week at the Spokane Jr Show and now we’re rolling right into another one — headed to Ellensburg for the Jr Angus show this weekend. We’ve still got a handful of mares left to foal, so the mom and the men are holding down the fort while we’re gone.

Thursday Thoughts

Wrapped up a great week at the Spokane Jr Show and now we’re loading up and heading to Ellensburg for another Jr Angus show this weekend — no slowing down around here.

The Spokane Jr Show was a good one. Kade had a strong week, landing 5th overall and 10th overall in FFA market, and his heifer topped it off as Champion FFA Market Heifer. Always proud of the kids and the work they put in. Even better getting to catch up with all our show friends — that’s what makes these shows worth it.

Anna ended up coming home Thursday night and rode over to Spokane with me on Friday. Then Saturday, Anna and I were right back at it — getting mares in, hauling them out with the studs, fixing fence, and keeping things moving.

Saturday kept things busy — JC had a 5-header calf roping, good job JC winning the 2nd round and making it back to Sunday. Then still made it to prom with Kaine that night. Jaxsen and Hailey went out as well, just skipped the prom part.

Back home, it’s been full speed as usual. Dad was working in Kahlotus and then jumped right into hauling Jaxsen around once that wrapped up. Jaxsen has been holding down most of the horse chores, while Mom and I have been busy with the colts.

Annie and Twiggs are doing great — getting turned out during the day and enjoying a little sunshine. Ben, Kaine, and Kicker have been handling cow chores, with Ben fixing circles and chasing water to keep everything running smooth.

We’ve had a few more foals hit the ground this past week, and Dad delivered a few bulls as well — just another week of juggling it all.

Wouldn’t trade this life for anything.

➡️ On to Ellensburg.

💙 Man Crush Monday: KT Heza Pana Dude “Dude” 💙

Some horses leave a mark you don’t forget… and Dude was one of them. We lost him two winters ago, but he’s still very much a part of what we’re building every day.

Dude was a stallion we proudly kept out of Zink—a horse that stood out from the start. He had those unique white markings, that rich golden color, and the kind of look that turned heads everywhere he went. Big bone, big hip, a pretty head, and most importantly—a winning, kind disposition.

He was started by Jordan Crabtree in Ferndale, WA, and was the kind every trainer appreciates—quiet, willing, and easy to get along with. Just a good-minded, honest horse.

At 88% NFQHA, Dude carried the kind of foundation breeding we value. He was a grandson of Pana Dude, with influence from Sheza Major Star and John Zink—a pedigree built on versatility, durability, and cow sense.

And he’s still proving himself where it counts most—his foals.
We’ve got babies hitting the ground by Dude, and they’ve been big, stout, good-minded foals with size, presence, and great personalities. The kind you enjoy being around and look forward to watching grow up.

That’s the kind that sticks with you.

Gone too soon, but his legacy is just getting started.
