Cattle Drive through Suburbia

Today, the girls and I went up to my parents house and drove in the cattle! Well not really, but Kimmy did. Every year since this girl has been with Ryker, she goes up into the mountains and brings the herd home. She has turned into quite the cowgirl...Yeehaw! They take the cattle right through my parents neighborhood, so its kind of tradition to watch. Aubrey remembered watching it last year, she even got to ride on "fire" , a very nice horse, and yelled out "hey cow", I guess the cows respond to that? This year, we rode on the 4 wheeler and just observed. Aubrey was asking all day when it was time to go see the cows. Kennedy was loving it! She was waving to the cows and trying to attempt a "moo" sound. Aubrey was telling everyone her knowledge about cows, the difference between boy cows and girl cows, and how they give us milk and the list goes on and on (trust me). I didn't know she knew so much about cows...way to go Aubrey! They both got to ride on the horse with Kimmy, which was a first for Kennedy. Such a fun day, can't wait until next year. It's fun to see my little sister (the mall brat) turn all cowgirl like.
