Francie won All-Around Cowgirl at the Red Bluff Junior Rodeo this weekend! 🌟 She’s been working so hard with her horse Red (who she adores so much she asked me to post the photo of her looking at her horse first 🥰) and they had some great runs this weekend. First place in barrel racing with a smoking fast 18.6 seconds. First place in pole bending with a clean and swift 21.5 seconds and 4th place in breakaway roping with a 4.7 seconds# catch. She and her team roping partner Ellis had a horse trip and tack malfunction, so no catch and Francie had an improved goat tie time but no placing. But those first three events earned her 27 points and the title of ALL-AROUND COWGIRL in the senior division (14-19 years old) on her last weekend of being 14. Congrats @francieheff!! I’m so proud of your dedication to your sport, your love and care for your horse and the example you set for your sisters. ♥️ Big thanks to her mentors (since I’m not an ex-rodeo mom like most of these moms!) Michele and Wendy – and to her sponsor @kimesranchjeans! #fivemarys #m5maryfrances #m5rodeo #kimesranch #fivemarysxkimes #californiarodeo #juniorrodeo #allaroundcowgirl

In a family business, the weekends are often the time we all have to jump in and work together to get a job that needs doing done. A few weekends ago we had to weigh and sort the livestock auction beef quarters at @fivemaryscustommeatco and it had to happen on a Saturday so the girls and a friend suited up in white coats and gloves and JJ was on clipboard duty (she has the best penmanship in the family ;) to get the job done. There’s a lot to take in at a butchery but they learn and work with care knowing how important that product is and how much work went into raising it! They learn so much doing this and get to know everything that goes into our businesses from the inside. It’s interesting to see which jobs some are drawn to more than others! Today we had the farm store team scheduled for the day off, but when lots of orders were coming in (you guys are stocking up this week on Five Marys ground beef!) I knew we’d be short on boxes made up – so the girls and a few of their friends came to the rescue to brand, liner, sticker and put together over 700 boxes. They all get paid for this extra work (a lot of ranch chores are just expected when this is our lifestyle) and they felt great at the end of the day at an accomplished day, pizza lunch and money in their pockets. We don’t expect any of the girls will for sure want to come back to the ranch or our family businesses as adults – they might make their own paths as entrepreneurs or any type of career! But I’m glad they have the knowledge knowing what goes into each arm of our business and the skills to take with them to work hard at any job. 👊🏼 #fivemarys #shopfivemarys #m5girls #myfourmarys #fivemarysfarms

I lost my sidekick today. 💔 The most loyal pup I ever knew… my constant companion who would never leave my side and the best ranch pup while the girls were growing up. I brought her home a tiny mutt when she was seven weeks old and we were still moving to the ranch. She spent car rides curled up in my lap driving back-and-forth to move up here and has never strayed from my side since. She’d stay right under my desk all day at my office and sleep at the end of my bed on any sort thing she could find. She was the first to jump in my rig for chores and if I couldn’t take her with me somewhere, she would be patiently waiting at the window for me whenever I got home. She’d been slowing down lately and acting a little different… and this afternoon I felt a gust of wind/energy stop me in my tracks – I know it was her spunky, loyal spirit saying goodbye. I didn’t deserve you Dixie, but I’m so lucky I was your person for eight years. Rest easy under the tree swing at camp Dixie and watch over your old squirrel chasing fields. ❤️ 🐾 #dixielandthejack June 2014-August 2022

Tess is off on her “Eight Year Old Trip” with Jannie & Grampery!! A tradition that started with Francie (check out the hashtag #8yearoldtripwithjannieandgrampery) they’ve kept strong with all the girls and are starting with the cousin grandkids now too! They’ve had sushi, watched movies, played Gin Rummy, swam at the neighbors pool, gotten mani-pedis, shopped for cake baking supplies, went to a trampoline park, and are at the Beach Boardwalk this afternoon… and she’s only been there for 1.5 days! She gets a surprise trip in an airplane later in the week… and lots more fun in store for all of them! (And yes, she’s NINE now but she wanted to wait for this special trip when things weren’t closed down ;) Go @ojannie & @jssimo – these are some lucky grandkids to get showered in your fun, loving, non-stop treats days!

Summer Sisters… they’ve had a great summer riding horses, driving tractors, raising steers, working in my shop, roping at rodeos and just being kids. We went electronics free this summer (for them) and while it makes it a little more challenging to call them to check on riding/driving/working – it was worth the distraction free time to remember what’s important! ✨ #myfourmarys

Tessa rocked the Inter-Mountain Junior Rodeo this weekend! She competed in six events and placed in all of them, earning her points that accumulated to earn the Reserve All-Around Champion. She competed in barrel racing, steer daubing, pole bending, goat tying, heel-o-matic roping, and steer riding… and really did awesome in every event. Her sisters had a good rodeo too – but they all cheer on Tess and know she’s a force to be reckoned with in this sport… and life! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ #m5maryteresa #tessrides #tinytess #notsotiny #tessakate #m5rodeo #tessridesasteer #rodeotessa
