It was still too windy on Monday to spray. But not too windy for Kade to get Jaxsen to pull the roping sled around so he could rope off of Stormy, maybe he wanted to rope off of her because it was stormy?? M218 was to be harvested on Monday, Billy got there and M218 jumped the 5-pole wood fence and ran back down to his pen and jumped the feed bunk and got back in. So Billy harvested him down there. Kaine used part of the $500 he won at Hermiston for GC Steer on his pickup, like over half. So he was pretty happy he could afford to do more to his pickup. Something about fixing the exhaust?? I think Toni and I should have gotten some of the money since we forced him to start jackpotting that steer, he would rather jackpot Red Velvet because he is easy. Toni, Kaine and Kade worked on the mesh fence Monday night, the horses are bending the top over the try to get the alfalfa. Toni also texted Jaxsen but he claims he did not see the text even though he was on his phone.
Tuesday was not as windy as it has been, but was still not warm, like it is summer. I am sure in a few weeks I am going to be complaining about how hot it is. Toni went to Ellensburg on Tuesday for the Cattlemens meeting. The kids washed their animals and cleaned out the Wilson for Toni and dad to take to Allies on Wednesday and pick up Cammie and Reba. Kade rode Honey and Joss. Tuesday night John brought out a warm blood for Toni to take up to Allies, a mini mare to go in with derringer and Lynn’s sister to see if Leo would breed her. Leo was eager but Bex was not.
On Wednesday Toni and Kade took Benelli to Allies to get preg checked, and she was open, a huge disappointment. They picked up Cammie and Reba. Anna and Kaine got the main herd in and sorted off the bull to go to Borbas and some steers to halter break for people. They left two calves that had gotten weaned in. Then they went into CBJLS to set up for the showmanship clinic that Hardy, Anna and Hannah are putting on on Saturday. I got to go to Suncadia for a meeting, it was a long drive for a short meeting. Toni stayed with grandma Wednesday night.
Thursday morning Kaine and Kade’s show steers and heifers had escaped. So Kaine got them in. Mom and dad went to St John to see Skip on Thursday and take him to the VA Urgent care, which we are not fans of the VA at this point. Toni stopped and let Sammy out on her way by and fed Chick. John came out to pick up his warm blood that Toni brought back for him. So we walked around and looked at foals with John. It is always entertaining to see how the horses respond to a tall red-haired 6’6 human. He is a freak of nature so good exposure for the horses.
On Friday dad went to Lewiston to get pelleted Cotton Seed Hulls for the show cattle. Anna, Kaine and Kade took the show animals in to Sheena for travel papers. Anna went in and got her diploma, I guess it is official now, she can go to college. Toni took Mom to her appointment and then they went and got lunch. So they had a nice little lunch. Kade rode Joss through the flooded water trough area and then him and Toni rode Tina’s mare MB, fun. We got another outside mare to breed, we are about done accepting outside mares for the year. The weather has finally warmed up and it feels like summer.
Saturday was Anna, Hannah and Hardy’s show clinic. It was a lot of fun. The kids that participate all learned a lot. Mr Dansie, Mr Booker and Ben cooked lunch for everyone. Toni got the mares in out of the circle and then Kicker sprayed the chamomile flowers. Toni and Dad went to St. John to get Skip and take him to the doctor in the tri-cities. Kaine, Kade and I practiced loading Cash so she could head to the trailer on Sunday. By the third time she loaded like a super star.
I went and checked Sagebug and Gunner’s pens on Sunday and got some new pictures out of them and put out mineral. Kade, Jaxsen and Toni moved their horses to their back pasture and Kade rode the horses out in the front and roped and drug a downed tree. All the kids washed their show animals. Anna, Kade and Jaxsen cleaned out the trailer and Ben and Kaine washed it out. Anna cleaned out Butte so I could bring it to work on Monday to get it detailed before we left for Angus Jr Nationals. After chores Jake showed up to take Cash to the trainer, she jumped in after he practice from the night before.

Monday was Kaine’s first summer football game, so Coco, Shea and I went to it. It was fairly warm, Shea fell asleep as soon as we pulled into the parking lot, so Coco and I packed the stroller up the stairs into the stadium. The only shade was at the very top. Shea slept most of the game, and then woke up in a great mood and we shared some watermelon and she played with the toys I brought her from my office. Toni had court in Ritzville, so headed up there for most of the day. Toni and the rest of the kids did chores. We got a feeder set up for Chick, as she is now an orphan. This way she has feed available with milk replacer in it, 24 hours. Except when Cleo knocks it open and eats the feed. She seems to really like to eat the milk replacer. Kade really started to ride Joss because she finally turned 2 so he is working on her a bunch. We brought home Papa Murphy’s for dinner.
On Tuesday Kaine had his second summer game in Royal City, it was a windy day since it is always windy in Royal. The kids washed their steers and heifers to get ready for the show this coming weekend. Kade had an orthodontist appt and Jaxsen elected to hang out with mom. Steve Jarmen brought out a mare to breed to MC and two more donkeys. So now we have 5 donkeys. We also got another outside mare in to breed to Cappy. The 2 young studs have the most outside mares, but that is probably due to their location by the house. Kade put another ride on Joss. Dad and I went to the scrimmage in Royal, it was a lot of fun, there were 8 schools there.
On Wednesday Jag headed to SE Idaho first thing to get a few rides on her. Then Toni and Kade took For in to Sagehill Vet to get Coggins and health for the sale. He did great. It was his first ride alone in the trailer and this colt continues to just really impress us. He is super smart. The one thing we would change is to make him a gelding, that should really make him smart. Toni took Jaxsen’s halter as a leash for her dog, so Jaxsen used a string to catch his steer. Gunz was fine until he got to the barn and Gunz decided he had not finished eating and drug Jaxsen back to the feed bunk. Toni stayed with grandma on Wednesday and I was actually home for chores, no game.
On Thursday Toni got some more videos of Kade riding Joss. She is doing great, very smart, picks things up quickly, agile, she has been a great little mare. She isn’t the biggest in stature, but seems to have a big heart. She also has really good bone and hoof size for her actual size. We think she will make a great breakaway mare. Jaxsen went down to rinse his steers and forgot a halter so caught his steers with string he picked upon the ground. At least he was a problem solver. We also continue to try to pet, handle, love on all the foals at the house. We have some really friendly buggers.
On Friday Kaine had a scrimmage in Connell at 9:30, it was windy and cold, but I was wearing shorts since the kid are on summer break. I am committed to summer no matter what. It went until around noon. The kids clipped and dyed heifers and steers in the afternoon. I checked cows and fixed fence. Then went down to do chores early to go to grandmas. Toni was late due to meetings, so her and Aby fixed fence. We have a couple of fences that need some work. Nothing extreme, just maintenance. And the Sagebug fence needs to be put up every year because we take it down for the winter. Fence, fence, fence, seems to be what we do way too much! We need a fence fairy. So far we haven’t found one, if anyone has one for sale, please let us know.
On Saturday Ben took the three older kids to the UCCA Desert Classic in Hermiston. They all did really well. We had a few class winners and Kaine’s steer, RJ, was Grand Champion Overall steer. At home I was building fence for Sagebug and his mares to come down to circle 3. I checked Sagebug’s pen after the thunder lightening and hail we got. Toni and I did chores with the shags. We took a couple of mares out of MC’s pen. We are trying to get mares cycled out of pens that require feeding and out onto the pasture. There is no real secret to fat happy horses, they just do better on green grass.
Happy Father’s Day. Sunday we did not have the storm but it was still very windy, and we need to spray. So that didn’t get done. After a lunch of steak and baked potatoes, Ben and Kaine worked on Kaine’s pickup, and Anna and I went out and put mineral out. Marlo brought Toni some cats, and then Toni and Marlo went down and messed with the yearlings, pulled some of Lightning’s hair for DNA and got Katana and Colada in, Colada has a cut on her leg that needs doctoring. Kade continued to ride the young horses. It is really a debate which of the two year olds are doing the best, they are all so good. Gucci, out of Blue and by Tank is a favorite, but so are all the others! It is always hard to pick a favorite.
Just a reminder that if you want to show in the AQHA Ranching Heritage Challenge you must have a horse bred by an AQHA Ranching Heritage Breeder. We have been enrolled in the program since 2011 and are the AQHA 2022 Heritage Breeder of the year. Check out our amazing foal and yearling offerings!
