Spring has Sprung

Spring is officially here! Along with spring comes the huge list of all the activities that I do. However, I can't complain too much because they are all things that I love doing! District tennis and livestock judging are both coming up soon, and my EIGHTEENTH BIRTHDAY! As you can tell I am quite thrilled that my birthday is so soon, I'm sure being 18 won't feel any different than any other birthday, but I will be a legal adult and that's very exciting! However, being a legal adult comes with a lot of different responsibilities that I don't exactly want.. Anyways, in the steer world my brother and sister are getting locked and loaded for the upcoming show season! One of my most favorite things to do is halter break new baby steers! Not only are they super cute and hairy, but also very dear to my heart. This year, since I am finished with my show career, my dad let me pick out a steer for my siblings. I picked an all white, hairy little booger and I must say I think I did an excellent job. Now, I may not be saying that in a couple months when it comes show time, but as of now I am very content with my decision. I guess I should get ready for the cycle of rinsing and blowing to keep his hair clean and super white! I will get to see the other side of showing, and get to experience what my dad has for ten years... trying to pick out the best steer as possible and hoping they turn out good. Although that doesn't always happen, but if the steer I picked out does end up doing well, you can bet that I will be boasting and bragging about it to my dad. Hopefully I will get to pick out many more in the future. As for college, I am still undecided.. surprising huh?
