Learning the Shawcroft Way of Life




This weekend while we were in Colorado for Ryan's sister's wedding, we also got put to work.We worked on the ranch on Friday before the wedding and all day on Saturday. On Saturday I experienced cow branding for the first time and it was quite the experience.




All ready for work



Branding

It gives off a great smell, let me tell you


I was in charge of giving all of the calves shots... pretty impressive, eh?

We had so much fun this weekend hanging out with Ryan's family. I feel so blessed to have awesome in-laws... well, soon-to-be in-laws. :)
