Life on the X-Bar Ranch...

I am an ordinary woman, with an amazing family, serving an awesome God.

It's a cold, snowy day out there. The screamin' wind makes it quite miserable. I am glad I can stay indoors today. :) But we are ever so thankful for the moisture.
 
Photo taken during a previous storm in Feb. 2013 There's actually a lot more snow today.
 
Silly me, I thought I would  just drive the car out and get the mail...I forgot that wind = drifts. I made as far as around the house, when my car sank to the axle in snow. I gave up on the mail.
Now, as you can see in the photo, I DO have a 4x4. A nice, reliable Suburban. Which I love. But I am in such a habit of driving my gas-sipper of a car, that I totally never thought of taking the Suburban!  Oh well.  Maybe someday I will learn.

I have a request to make of you...

I entered a photo in the "Beef Farms in Focus" contest, and it made finalist. I would love to win the fun prizes, so I am asking you, (pretty please!) if you would go to: http://www.alltech.com/contest-photo/brandin-iron and click on the little yellow thumbs-up to cast your vote for my photo!


The photo was taken here at the ranch we work on, and the man in the middle (holding the calf's leg) is My Cowboy. :) 

Thanks a bunch!

EDIT:: I just wanted to let you all know that I won the contest! Thanks for your help. :)
