Arnie’s Second Month with us!

 

 

 

 

In case you missed the first post introducing our newest baby…..Here is Arnie!  Arnie came to us from a neighbor who asked if we would take him in as an orphaned and of course I did!  (Yes – my husband is calling me ‘Ellie Mae’ these days!).   But how could I resist this little horse colt who was only 4 weeks old when he got to the ranch

Probably my favorite picture, and soon thereafter I gave a big lecture about laying by Arnie’s feet…..What a way to grow up!

A Little Branding

For a family who hasn’t branded cattle on their own ranch in nearly 2 years this was a welcome sight!   Some of our good friends needed a few head branded and summered so we said bring them on up!

Here are some highlights from that fun day!
