My Weekend Well Spent

You know you are a farmers wife when you get off work early from your full time job and instead of going to get Lyndin, I spent a couple hours working with V56 Loaded to the Max, or Max as we call him.

Max is a purebred Simmental ET (embryo transfer) bull that we are taking to sell at the 2016 Iowa Beef Expo on Monday, February 15. We are so honored that we have high quality genetics suitable for selling there. Max is great to work with a loves getting brushed and walks great on the halter. He and I make a good pair so hopefully someone will see his potential and add him to their herd. I also managed to find a babysitter for Lyndin on Sunday so I could give him a good bath and blow his hair. The things I do for our cattle.

I am looking forward to beef expo, but nervous at the same time. Lyndin will be spending Friday night - Monday night with my parents. I am so thankful that I get to go with Will and have some time to ourselves as we never get that anymore. We know that Lyndin is in great hands so that makes things easier on us. I guess I should be use to my vacations being cattle shows by now!

I had to work Saturday morning in town so Will and Lyndin spent the morning bumming. I heard they ate green beans and apples along with watching cartoons. What a great time for them to bond.

If you know of anyone looking for a fabulous bull please let them know about V56 Loaded to the Max. We take pride in our cattle and honestly a good payday would be much appreciated as I am sure you know that feeder market is down!
