sale day

we were in oakley a couple weeks ago for grandma's birthday celebration.
Mackoy got to have a slumber party with Aunt Erica and Uncle Rob.

Mack and I woke up early
had some coffee on the patio with grandma
played games.
ate breakfast.


then we decided it was the perfect day
for a trip to the sale barn!
we started in the office where Aunt Barb, Kenzie, Lydia and Lauren were hard at work.





then we headed into the ring to watch some of the action
he didn't take his eyes of the cattle the entire time.





look at that cute face.
he is so alert. always watching.



we even got a little surprise performance by Uncle Rob.
city slicker goes country.





a full 8 seconds! no lie :)

our last stop was out back to visit Papa Kirk.



the 4th (or maybe even 5th) generation of Hemmert man to enter
Oakley Livestock Commission Company.
I'm pretty sure that my dad had never looked so happy to be at work :)

it was a great day.
