Auction day celebration

On Monday Farmer Allen sent our 4 bull calves and Pookie to the sale. Tuesday is sale day, so Farmer Allen and the girls watched the live feed on the computer as our cows auctioned off. Emma loved the announcer - her first taste of an auction. And today, just two days later, our check came in the mail. We love you, Chester Livestock Auction! And a special thanks to Blake for coming out to tote our cows there for us! And another special thanks to the mamma cows still out in the field who, three days later, have finally quit calling (constantly) for their babies. We even had a neighbor call us to ask if our cows were alright! We are now back down to three mama cows and our Oreo bull, Bill.
