Birthday Party #2

On Sunday we had Cody's family and a few friends over to celebrate Bryce's Birthday.  But this time we put them to work first.  The original plan before Cody got hurt was that we would brand our few calves and help Chunky brand his heifers he bought before Bryce's Party.  Thanks to our friends and family it still got done, but Cody just wasn't able to do help.  After the branding at Chunky's everyone came back to our place for supper and and watch Bryce open more presents.  We also had in the garage since it was already set up from the night before.

It was raining outside so we did everything inside the barn

Cody couldn't stay away from the action

Cake everywhere
Time for a bath and pajamas again






Thanks again for all the presents for Bryce and coming to his party.  Sorry we made you work for your meal but glad to get the cows and calves done.  Now time to turn them out to pasture for the summer!
