We have weathered the storms.  We lost some trees, but no damage to person or animal.  God was smiling on us.  Getting ready for the hot months.  We are already hitting the high 80s and low 90s! Hope this post finds everyone safe and well.

It was a beautiful, cold day on the ranch yesterday. This is the view from our back window. You can see our windmill & in the distance is Lake Ray Roberts.

The snow is melting away today. School started late today for the boys & Ray went in late to work. I'm doing chores in the house, but stop occasionally to look out the window at the beauty outside.

The Circle Crazy S is decking the halls for Christmas!

Wednesday, December 1, 2010

Fall is in the air, the leaves are covering the ground, and soon it will be looking a lot like Christmas. We are down to 2 horses and 2 cows (Mama Bear & Papa Bear). Mama Bear is looking a little pregnant. We shall see. Papa is getting very friendly. I swear his tongue is 3 feet long!!

Well the crazy cow is gone. We hired a cowboy to rope her and put her in the trailer. It gives us a lot of satisfaction when the professional cowboy called her crazy. She charged his horse which he says is unusual.

Bye Bye Animals

Well our ranch was reduce by 3 yesterday. Tippy, Hotshot, & Slimer made the trip to the sale barn in Gainesville. Our cow that rejected Slimer was suppose to make the trip too, but she is a wild thing! Couldn't get her in the shoot and she busted through a gate. We will have to try again. She better watch it though because Ray would just as soon shoot her as to sell her. He & she had a run-in several months ago and Ray is just now healing up.

Here is a picture of Slimer one day as he was eating.... think we named him right?

We keep growing!


Three weeks ago a new calf was born at the Circle Crazy S ranch. We have since named him Hotshot. He love to run and jump just as if some one has hit him with a hotshot.

Well we grew some more this week. On Sunday, March 21st another calf was born to a first time heifer. She has rejected him and so has Hotshot's mother. We have started bottle feeding him and named him Slimer. He is the messiest, slimiest eater around -- hence the name.

New Addition to Circle Crazy S Ranch



Today our momma cow dropped a new calf. She is a good mother and we have no doubt that this latest addition will grow up big and strong.


This is our new neighbor!
Nice hairdo don't you think?
