Trippin'...I Mean Tippin'...Cows That Is...

Who's bright idea was this anyway? The things you do for your kids...yes, we REALLY went "Cow Tippin'!  After the kids did a little research on You Tube, they informed the Dads of what we needed and a few pointers to keep in mind.
Did I mention that the Dads found their courage in the bottom of a bottle?



* Make sure that there are NO BULLS in the area you enter

* Take flashlights

* Be sure to wear boots because you will step in piles of .....


* Try to be very quiet

* After successfully Tippin' the cow, while laughing your rear off and dodging cow manure, get to a SAFE environment ASAP



Well as you guessed, we didn't exactly follow the rules!

On the count of three, Eric, Ryan and Judson were going to charge towards the chosen white cow and tip it right over! Well, on three, Eric and Judson froze and Ryan charged right towards that cow. The cow was standing with his rear towards Ryan. As soon as Ryan got remotely close to the cows rear, he raised his hind leg and gave him a swift kick in the chest. Ryan flew in the air and landed flat on his back in the pasture. No, this is not a joke. He really did get a karate chop from that big white cow. The picture below is him explaining it to the Moms.


Here is Ryan's chest right after. We really think that he broke a couple of ribs!


We never could get a picture of him a few days later when the bruising appeared. He wasn't real proud of it and didn't want Katie to worry about him. I can only imagine what he looked like!


The Three Amigos...at it again!


This is what Duncan did while we were in the middle of the pasture. Of course, Katie was sitting in the car with him so he wasn't alone. He is the best baby and has gone more places that any baby I have ever known!


This is Oney on the way home from Rosemark that night. Exhausted!

Ryan's new bumper sticker that I put on his truck.
