Here's a Hint:If It's Got Legs It Can Kick!!

A Real Attact Dog Wouldn't You Say?

Okay...so something that totally annoys me!!

When I was a little kid my mom used to tell me not to touch other people's dogs or animals!! (unless given the permission) 

I can't believe all the crazy moms (and dads) who bring their kids by the cattle barn at the fair and push their stroller right up behind a 1300 lb. steer. They have out the camera and are saying "look little Joey it's a big bull..do you want to touch him...how cute... Most of the time I have to admit I would love for the steer just to take a big old poop on them (not the baby just the parents) ... I mean get REAL!! Their kid needs on a sign that says "I am with stupid, Rescue me.!"

If it's got legs... IT CAN KICK!!! Even if it usually doesn't!!

(It only gets better when they ask if they can milk the that bull, which is actually a steer....but that is a WHOLE other lesson...)

Link Up Your Show Cattle For Sale..

We moved cattle today and lucky there were no glory wounds to be found today, except for on the livestock trailer(dad still hasn't noticed that one)! Praise the Good Lord! (If you aren't sure what I am talking about feel free to check out our glory wounds post.)  We'll be back at it in the morning, so hopefully it will be another safe day as we move cattle to the sale sight for this upcoming weekend.

I hope to see some of you southern readers there at the CSR sale barn on Saturday.  There will be lots of cattle available and our farm will be having 7 lots.  We have 4 pairs & 3 bred heifers.  If you are interested in knowing more about what we will have at the sale feel free to give us a call on one of the following numbers:

God's Blessings Overflow....

Not often at our house do we sit down and watch a movie at our home, even though it is one of my favorite things to do! However, tonight my husband, children and I watched a movie that we borrowed from our pastor. I am sure that most of you saw the Fireproof movie and Facing the Giants; however, I had never even heard of Flywheel, which is the first movie the church in Albany, GA produced!


This movie was about a man who hadn’t always lived in God’s plan. This man began to see his wrong ways and realized that he needed to do as the Lord called him to do! This movie really impacted me because I realized that I don’t always live as God desires me to live. Even though I am a Christian and believe in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior there have been many times where I allowed my temperature and anger to get the best of me. There have been occasions where I have said things or done things that God disapproved of and I know it was wrong. If I ever wronged any of you I am sorry and hope you will find it in our heart to forgive me.

I pray that in the future God will help me to live in his purpose and plan, that my heart will be open, and my mouth will be shut (hahaha). I think God for all he has done for me! His gifts are far more than I deserve and his blessing overflow on me! May we always put the Lord first and honor him!!

(In the show ring and out)

One of the greatest blessing God gave me was friends I meet showing cattle!

We all know what time of year it is....

That is right for most of us it is time to head out to show sales and see what the prospects for this upcoming year will look like!! Good luck to everyone on finding their champion!!

If you know of an upcoming sale please forward us the information to stalvey@hotmail.com!! Or even better than that if you have a steer or heifer for sale send us some pics and a number and we will post it on the blog!
