Trailing to Dryhead

Saturday we helped trail Matthew dad's cows to Dryhead. It was a rainy/ cloudy day, but we had a great time. It was nice that it was cool enough that the guys didn't cook riding. Plus the cows did great because it was cooler as well. We took the cows to the lower part since it was so muddy. It has been quite a while since they have been able to do that. There was plenty of water in the pond for the cows for a few days. It was so great to see how green and tall the grass is up there this year. We are so thankful for all the rain we have gotten this year that has helped that. Ian got to ride the 4-wheeler with grandpa Asay for a while, then he rode with Matthew on the horse as well. Ian could seriously ride the 4-wheeler for hours, and was in heaven while doing so. Chloe also rode with Matthew on the horse for just a little while. She is such a brave little thing and loves it as well. Lot more brave then I am, I worry that I will get bucked off all the time. I drove the dodge with the goose neck horse trailer. It was the first time I had ever done this. It was so muddy so there were a few nervous times of almost getting stuck. Oh and rolling down a huge hill at deadman corrals. Just a little scary lol. Once we got the cows to the lower part we stopped for a picnic. We enjoyed our hamburgers and just as we finished it started to rain. We hurried out of there. It was a great day working as a family!
