And so it begins...
The season of branding and working cows.
Bailey was able to be outside branding with us yesterday, as the weather was finally nice enough for us to be outside at the ranch. We got 120 cows worked and calves branded. Cody taught me, and Shawna, Raimee, Jacob, and Justin, how to cut calves for the first time. Seth was not interested. I actually enjoyed it and will continue to do it at other brandings. We have more calves to brand and will probably have two more brandings within the next week to finish out herd.
We had Raimee's Bridal Shower last Saturday and it was so much fun to plan it! We did a Hawaiin theme and there were actually a lot of people who showed up. I loved seeing how happy Raimee was! We had a lot of fun with the games, which was my favorite part of planning the shower. We also had a Pinterest success with the cupcakes! We made them into a wedding dress and they were beautiful!
We had a lot of family up here already because Dilon graduated high school. It is crazy to see him all grown up! He is leaving on a mission this year and we are so proud of him and can't wait to see all he will do with his life!
Well, I passed my final exam for my Medical Coding certificate! I am on the lookout for a job, which is what I am supposed to be doing now. I got distracted, figures! I will still have to take my CPC-A exam in Casper shortly but that will be in a few months. I am keeping my fingers crossed for being employed here in the near future.
The summer will be busy and will take Seth away from the house work. He is hoping that one more long day of wiring and that should be done. We are having our propane tank delivered today so Seth can hook up the hot water heater and get the propane ran to our house. He has started the plumbing but is learning the PEX plumbing system so it is a whole new adventure for him! We probably won't be moved in anytime within the next few months because of the wedding, traveling, and taking care of cows for the summer. We will try to get in as soon as possible though!
Bailey is started to have a very strong but cute personality. She loves to talk but that means that she will let you know if she isn't happy. Seth says she has my temper, patience, and attitude. That means that we are in deep deep trouble. She even tries to roll her eyes already! She is still a morning person and wakes up smiling and giggling. If she stays on her sleep schedule and doesn't have too many things going on, she will go all day without getting angry, until the night when she has had a long day and is ready for bed.
This summer will be busy but I will try to keep updated with the blog, as long as I have the time and the energy!
