On Tuesday, Corb had his last day of preschool for the year and it was "water day"! So I put sunscreen on his neck, face, arms and ears. I'm a sunscreen fanatic. However, I realized later on that day when Corb came crying to me about a sunburn that he took his shirt off during "water day". :( DUH MOM! I feel so stupid for mot putting his sunscreen all over his torso! So now, he has BLISTERS on his shoulders and hasn't worn a shirt for 3 days now. The only time he can go outside is when the sun goes down.
In fact, I was planning on taking him out to go get cows with me this morning, but with his bad sunscreen that wasn't going to pan out. :( So he stayed home with shalyce with Ally.
Shaylee keeps on proving herself as a "COWGIRL!" She wasn't afraid to take charge when Jack started to buck today, she tried to stay on, didn't give up, grabbed 1 rein and turned him in a tight circle REAL QUICK and ended that bucking SpreE! YEEHAW! Licorice is gorgeous as ever, take a look at that gorgeous horse of mine! I'm always in awe when I think about Heavenly Father making these gorgeous animals!
My view for 6 hours...
After a 6 hour ride bringing the cows in, I took some pictures of a new calf that was born after we brought the cows in (poor mommy cow). How would you like to walk for 6 hours during labor? 
So as I am trying to take pictures of the calf, I look up and there's a big heffer charging me. Luckily I am on the other side of the fence! Well, she's #108 and an ornery thing! I named her "crabby pattie" (those of you who've watched spongebob 1 million times might laugh). However I don't think she'll stick around our place much longer with her nasty attitude. She's headed up to the auction in Cedar on Thursday! Soyonara, Crabby! Oh, I wanted to get some pics of Dave taunting her, and she was definately annoyed with him!

This is the new calf.

Looks like you get the mother of the year award too. Read my blog and you'll know what I mean! Melissa was so excited to be stuck behind your cattle drive. She was very animated telling me about it. Being on an actual cattle drive is now on her list of things to do before she dies. Poor mommy. Labor sucks, let alone doing it on a cattle drive. Animals must be tougher. Hopefully Crabby Pattie won't get anyone sick after she is eaten! It might be Spongebob's best patty ever!
Go shaylee!! i wish i was a smarty like her when i rode Addy and ginger haha. poor mamma cow! hahahahahahahaha nice crabby pattie! hahahahahahahaha! that calf is precious...
Okay, Licorice has improved ten fold since our sweet little accident! I have a scar for life because of this awesome looking animal!!! I wish I was a cowgirl like you! Oh and I want to plan a time to have Emily take a few lessons from you!
Poor Corbin! Sunburns are so dreadful.
My dad says fence breaking beef tastes better because you are so happy that they aren't breaking your fences anymore.
She's not crabby, she's a protective momma.
