I just wanted to say how nice it was to meet so many of you at Jr. Nationals.  I think one of the surprises was SD.  Was a surprise no anteneas lol.

SD thank you so much for the nice compliments on our bull calf.  We are pretty proud of him.  I think he's going to make someone a heck of a bull.  He's a Money Man x HAA Stockman/Calberta Hustler.  For you doubters on Money man making bulls or steers, he's my witness, he's one thick little booger.

Got to meet Jason Olsen too!  I was shocked, I was expected an old man lol.  His knowledge is way beyond his years let me tell you! 

Of course, us girls got together, commonsense, Red, Jill, Cowz, and myself.  Not enough time but of course you could hear us all laughing.  Just sorry I was too tired to mingle more.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and gave us such nice compliments on our cattle.  It was really appreciated.

Thick! And then some! To really appreciate this calf you need to see the long deep cow he has for a momma! Wow!! And to be right honest JM I would sure be thinking of a promotion syndicate. I would have no problem investing in him.

I'm sorry about not having any antennas but I shed them during the summer and get them back in the fall in time for............ well let's just say party season. 8)

SD, I am sorry I missed you!

I also had higher aspirations for getting together with everyone more......but I was only there for 2 days....had a lot to do!  For those of you who work like dogs in hot weather and high humidity, my hat is off to you.  I am still extremely WHOOPED!

Not sure SD....wasn't any high from it lol.  I know Jill got sick right after the Chi banquet.  Had to yell at the kids earlier, so my voice is squeaking thru lol they heard me <party>

I just love Jr. Nationals, I thought 3 breeds together would be a great thing, but it is really too much you still can't compete in all 3 even having them at the same venue, but we did try and I'm going to brag a little because I think the boys did a wonderful job.  We did get to spend some time with Gidget and her beautiful daughter Danielle, got to see Red, Cowz and Commonsense (we were shot by the time they came), sorry I missed Jason and SD.  It was 97 here on Monday, so you all left town at the perfect time.  I included pictures of the boys and the Princess and her mom (Gidget)

Jill was that really necessary lol?  That was the one and only time I was clean!  Evan said I smelt really good lol like heifers.  My son sure knows how to sweet talk a lady.  He was taking "pick up lessons" from Tucker Stewart in the food line, heaven help me! lol

The lighting was so poor in the ring all mine turned black.  Cann't wait to get Dee's pictures from Pearl though.
