A great year!

This past year has been so much fun, especially living out in Navajo at the ranch and getting to spend lots of time with my mom, dad, little sisters and little brother. The kids had a great time playing in the mud seriously almost every day! They would go outside and turn the water on (even when I would tell them not to) and make a muddy mess. This even happened once we got grass because they would just go to where there was still dirt. When we would go out with Kenny to work the boys would go find the nearest cattle drinker and get all wet and then muddy of course. Kenny and I would take the kids riding horses (Rans would ride on the horse with Kenny and Reaves would ride with me) and Rans would always fall asleep. Kenny would have to hold him and control his horse, that's why Kenny got to ride with Rans. The first summer in Navajo a mother cow died so we had to care for her baby calf. He was so cute and we would go out every morning and night to bottle feed him, the boys loved this! We named him "Lucky" because he was only a few days old when his mother died and he had been out on his own a few days before we found him. Reaves was very sad when "Lucky" got old enough to send out with the other cows and we didn't get to see him every day. I am including some highlights from this past year below.
