My step daughter and son in law are living in Texas where he is a Ranch Superintendent, so today was the day to bring home the girls that are about to calve. We started out at 8:30 this morning and went to the "bottoms" and rounded all them up. Then the guys drove them from that piece of property back to the ranch (about 3-5 miles). We blocked traffic and everything... it was so cool. Maybe I shouldn't say "we" since everyone that knows me knows that I CANNOT ride a horse. So I rode in the truck...and got some great pictures. After the drive we had prayer (Thank you Roy) and a meal...it was delicious. Smoked Brisket (Thanks Rhonda and Tyson!), Pinto Beans with Tennessee Squash Relish, Potato Salad and Megan's Sweet Tea. We're all wore out...even the dog! I hated the fact that they moved so far from home (12+hrs) but they have made some great friends out here. Everyone I've met has made me feel so welcome...I don't feel so bad about them being out here now with a little one on the way. It was a good day...I feel so blessed.


This is the bottoms
