{Baby cows, horses, and lots of baths}

The look I got every time I made him leave the horses.



As you can see this little boy was in love with horses this weekend. We went to the Orchard ranch where my dad has a hunting camp. Krew was exploring the entire time we were there. I'll put it this way he took a 3 hour nap yesterday that I had to wake him up from, went to bed at 7, and didn't wake up until 7 this morning. That was one exhausted little guy!
The first day we were there my parents watched him while I went on a ride with Seth, my sister, and Sean. We were gone for about 3 hours and when we came back my parent had given Krew a bath, lost him in the sage brush, let him fill water troughs with rocks (and maybe horse poo) they won't answer that question, and finally got him cleaned up again and ready for bed.
While Krew slept AMAZING there Kade was a whole different story. Everynight when Seth and I would get into our cabin he would wake up and scream until I pulled him into bed with us. (Ugh)





One Monday we went down for branding, and again this little guy was in heaven. He went in with my dad to "help" and Kade and I hung out on the sidelines. We had a blast watching Papa and Krew. Kade would fling his arms like crazy everytime a cow walked by us, or a horse got a little too close. I can't imagine what its going to be like next year with a 1 1/2 year old and almost 3 year old! I'm going to wear my heart rate monitor next year to see how many calories I burn in this "relaxing" weekend! Leaving was another story in itself. I'll put it this way, we were ok until we got off the dirt road. That's when the crying for the "baby tows" began. It was so sad I almost turned around :-)

I can't wait to do it all over again. Nothing better than watching boys be boys
