We've decided to jump right in to the cattle business! We purchased a small amount last year (about 30), but this year we felt really good about it and decided it was time for this new learning experience. So far we have purchased about 180 and are looking for a total of about 300. Its been adventure so far, but we've been in it all the way together and its been a good experience thus far. The following pics are of us working our cattle. We had to brand, tag, and vaccinate them all. Tyrel did most of the branding and I was in charge of the vaccinations. Thanks to Tyrel's family for all of their help! We really appreciate it, it was a much faster process with all of their help!

| Ya I know we look puffy, but come on we're wearing about 5 layers, it was freezing! (By the way Dad and Mom, thanks for the new boots, this was the first time ever that my feet stayed warm the entire time!) |

| Tytyn helped Tyrel brand the last cow, he thought that was pretty cool! I branded a bunch too, but unfortunately none of those were caught on camera. |
These pictures are so great! I may have to use some of yours for my album this year cuz I forgot my camera AGAIN!! haha :) so much fun!
