Weekend at home

Here we go again - I think most people don't realize that the 4-H projects are not just a summer thing.  The calves are home and the work is beginning.  Over Christmas break, we tied the calves up in Grandpa & Grandma Stoor's barn and broke them to lead - well sort of.  They have done pretty good & are getting friendly.  Jim & the kids brought them home about 2 weeks ago and they are feeling right at home.

This is Megan's little red guy.  He is not quite sure about the whole business.

Shelby's calf has the white marks on his face.  I think he is really quite sure that he doesn't want to be someone's pet - he will come around and probably be better to show than the others:

That's a cute face!

Megan is doing her best to make friends.

Megan waiting for the trough to fill - she was the only one of my kids home for the weekend, so she got all the chores.  Weigh-in for the calves is coming up in a month or so.  We have started them on a little bit of grain, and Seth's black calf is liking this program.  He just about runs you over already to get to the barn for his grain every morning.  It is always an adventure!
