Good Week??!!
The cattle are worked. The sun was out yesterday. Lots of volleyball this week. Only 3 more good days of combining and we could have all the beans out. Had a good freeze last night, the corn should dry down so we can combine that. Pheasant hunting this weekend....lots of family will be home to hunt. It's going to be a good week!!!!

YIPEE!
Yippee....all the cows are moved back home. Now we preg test the cows on Monday and also castrate and vaccinate the calves both here and at my in-laws. The kids don't have school, aren't they lucky (it was planned so we could have their help)!

Brrrrr!
It is cold, cloudy, windy and suppose to rain and all I want to do is wrap up in a blanket and read a good book......but instead, I am heading out to move more cows home *sigh*.

Movin' Cows
Chad and I have been busy the last few days hauling cows home. We have gotten them moved home from 2 pastures....have 2 more to go (plan on doing that Friday and Saturday). I have been head to toe mud and cow manure the last few days....if my hubby still finds me attractive after that, it must be love!

Community Effort
We live in such an awesome community! On Friday many of the area farmers got together and harvested a neighbors soybeans for him. Verne and his wife Jayne farm together and Jayne drives truck for him during harvest. She was diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently going through treatments. She is unable to do much and he is busy taking care of her. So.....a bunch of area farmers (not sure of the count at this time, probably between 20 and 25) got together and harvested Verne and Jayne's soybeans for them.

This field had 6 semis lined up ready to haul the beans out and there were 4 combines and 1 grain cart running here. Jeremy and Chad each had a semi and my father-in-law had his combine in this field. There were 14 combines total at many different fields. It was an awesome sight!
