Bull sale

Time once again for the Romans' Annual Bull Sale. It seems like it was a little less crazy and stressful this year. Maybe they are starting to get a good functioning routine down {but I could be wrong. who knows.}

It changed a little bit this year for me, company came to see the bull sale. Kay and
Grandma Karen wanted to see the bull sale so my parents and Tim drove them up to see it. They arrived Monday at 1:30 and left exactly 24 hours later. It was a fast trip but it was wonderful to see them.

On Monday Kurt gave tours, Dad and grandma took a self guided mural tour, Mom stayed with the girls while I did Girl Scouts and the other after school activities, Tim took Spencer & Austin to Spencer's wrestling practice followed by Dairy Queen treats {trying to earn that coveted title of "Favorite Uncle"} and FHE.


The guys playing cards after the kids went to bed.



We sent all the kids to school this year figuring they had missed plenty of school for our Cali trip in January. Ruth came down at one point to eat and see the bull sale. Her eyes were huge as she took in all the sights {it is loud and over stimulating.}







But the sale went well, it seems to get better and better every year. Plus it was fun to have some company come.

Glad it went well, wasn't so stressful and you enjoyed the million visitors. :) Wish we could have visited too...

We enjoyed ourselves! Thanks for hosting when you already had 4 zillion things on your to do list! It was a real education for all of us - a peek into a different world.

This is Halloween Nite!
