They're Here! Our Family Grows 😍

everybody is confused with me okay we're having issues here every last little thing another day big day they're here y'all [Music] okey dokey let's go see what's going on over here we had um what do we have just under an inch of rain yesterday so it's a mud hole around here um oh I know he's got a he's gotta put more feed in there for the calves the heifers and I don't know he said he was gonna try he's trying to do it a different way I don't know so we'll see you doing you already got boots on go around and spray it oh yeah [Music] I was thinking about it come on okay I didn't think that was gonna work okay so there's corn there's corn ground in there so what he's trying to do he's going to see if he can just put um this barley in there he took the hammer Mill out so or you took the screen out so it would hopefully just load in there I was wrong again took that screen out so that the barley would not get clogged up in it and little holes it is it is still grimy we put the hammering well the hammer Mills in yeah we don't really know so loud it's so loud he's trying to explain this the what the fingers [Music] everybody without training but it just hit them and they go on okay basically that screen is um what makes it like grind what you put in there which we didn't want to grind that because it's all because then it would be like powder and but he wanted to load it he wanted to get it in there easier without having to Auger it in so we're putting it in that way basically loading it from the bottom like we were grinding it but we're not grinding it if everybody is confused as me okay good okay anyway we're adding The Barley to that corn and then we're gonna take it out there and we're gonna feed the cows and that's that okay Carry On I wasn't even thinking about the mud over here y'all oh my gosh it just takes one good time one good rain it's gonna be a mess in there flip flatty mess why didn't we do this two days ago oh weren't thinking were we yep I

soup I just added another can of diced tomatoes and what did I add black beans anyway um to stretch it out a little bit I feel like today has been a whirlwind I didn't video much there at the show because well for when I was holding a rally horse and uh the first part I got to help I really didn't do much I just sit up there with Jim and the um the announcer slash judging stand and um watch the ranch uh what would that be called cattle drive I think that's something that we would enjoy doing in the future we obviously have a long ways to go this is not above me I know that but I do believe this is something that we will have fun doing together as a family and I look forward to seeing what we can do and and just having a good time doing it so uh yeah this is this is like another chapter for us super excited Wesley got a little frustrated he got he's a little he's discouraged his father is outside on the porch talking to him um and his father has a lot of wisdom about these things so when it comes to horses and um I know he's given some giving him some good advice so we're just gonna keep learning together Ben um Ben needs some work but you know he's been here on the farm and he's just gotten very sour so we're gonna we're gonna we're gonna work on that it's time it's like anything that's what you're talking about on the way home it's like anything it just takes time horses take time it takes an an immense amount of time spent with him to grow them to grow yourself and to grow the two of you together so um just like anything just like my health journey I feel this so much on such a deep level uh really being in this now for I'm on my ninth week um of kind of intense not intense but training and and really sticking to a plan both nutritionally and physically and um the changes have not been fast they have not been overnight but they they have been gradual but they are still changes and I can see that and I can feel it and I know that I know that I'm moving in the right direction and like we just you always you hear nothing worth having comes easy or free or overnight so okay um I've probably talked too much during this one but here we are you know every every day is different every week around here things are different and this is just where we're at for this one but um thanks for being here and tomorrow we head to early Thanksgiving with our family and I'm looking forward to that and I don't know how these videos are gonna fall if for some reason I don't see you again before then we want to wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family I hope that it's filled with lots of good food and good laughs and good times with your most favorite people so we just wish you nothing but the best and stick around see these horses in the light of day and um we've got planting to do we've still got lots of planting to do and a surgery coming up so many things all right
