Life in the Country

Taking one day at a time with kids, cattle, and farming!



Who is being photographed?

on Monday, March 17, 2008

This is the kids' first year in 4H. Instead of starting out with a "small" project... like a rabbit maybe...we jumped in with both feet! They each have a festival calf that they are using as their
4H project this year. Blake is just a 4H Cloverbud since he was only 6 when he enrolled so he has to make a poster showing how he works with his calf and how it changes through the upcoming months. So since it was halfway nice yesterday we (Brooke & I, since Blake really wants to sell his calf for a dirtbike... hopefully he will be more interested soon) headed to the barn to take some pictures. I guess Brooke thought that maybe we were out there taking pictures of her as she tried to pop into every picture I was taking! This picture is really suppose to be of Steward and Bullet (the calves) but rather it's of Brooke. I thought it was cute anyway so I wanted to share it. She really likes her calf. He's really tame and tries to lick her every time she walks into the pen. Blake's, on the other hand, pretty much has us buffaloed and he knows it! He's not quite as calm, but he'll come around - we hope! Hopefully Blake will come around, too!
