7 Quick Takes...

7 quick takes sm1 7 Quick Takes Friday (vol. 218)

Joining Jen again :)

1.  This week has been crazy...starting right after my "quick take" post last week.  That evening my cousin, Whitney, went into labor at 34 weeks.  Try as they might, they couldn't stop it, and Braxton was born on Sunday:

As of today, he has all tubes out and is nursing like a champ.  NICU will soon be a thing of the past :)

2.  It Rained.  Not enough to prevent us from selling 75% of our cattle herd.  But, it rained.  I cannot tell you how important it is for us, but this little guy's excitement might:




3.  We branded some of our baby calves today.  






It takes a crew to do it, and these four little boys (along with two not pictured) make up the next generation of flankers!

 Getting a little fuel...


4.  Here is one of the ones not in the previous picture.  My nephew Stephen Ross and our John Paul will be right there with their older brothers and cousins.  A daddy and his boy...



they are just seven weeks apart...

5.  The boys and I made these coconut macaroons.  Only five ingredients and amazing (if you like coconut):





6.  I'm sure you've seen this picture floating around the net.

7.  May we remember that Memorial Day is about more than BBQ.  To all who have served, thank you.  To all who have lost, God bless you. 

Don't forget to see all of the other takes at Conversion Diary!

  1. Oh my goodness, Carter's face! Totally irresistible - no wonder it rained :)

    And I never get tired of the ranch pictures - so cool! REALLY lassoing! I feel like such a city girl, I don't think I've ever seen anyone lasso in person!
