Nut Cuttin Festival June 7, 2008

Andy was in charge of the vaccinations.
LeighAnn (front left), Milford (on horse), Uncle Jimmy (left holding calf), cousin Jake (right holding calf) & cousin Justin (right standing). LeighAnn is in charge of the castration of the calves. She seems to like it!!! We tease her husband and all the other guys to "watch out" for her and to not tick her off or else ------she has a pocket knife and knows how to use it!!!

Uncle Miford riding Greyce (Bailee's horse) and roping the calves to drag them to be cut, branded and vaccinated. They do it all the old fashioned way---cowboy style!!! Milford said that he was really excited about how well our horse did with dragging the calves and him roping off her---she hadn't been ridden in quite a while so he was a bit Leary.

Jerald branding a calf.


Bailee & her cousin McKenzie----two little cow girls!!!

We all went out to Jerald Hall's ranch to help out with the annual nut cuttin festival (Jerald is my sister Nicole's father-in-law). It was fun and we had a good time. Andy and the guys all enjoyed the old cowboy style activities. Bailee got to go on her 1st horse ride (on Greyce) with her daddy today also.
