My family, my roots… 🩷
This is such a great article featuring my brother Brad, his wife Amy, and my Parents. Stories like this remind me just how blessed we are to come from a family built on hard work, agriculture, rodeo, faith, and deep roots in western South Dakota.
Agriculture truly is our way of life. Ryan and I ranch east of Sturgis, my younger sister and her husband ranch south of Faith, and my older sister and her husband ranch east of Sturgis as well. It’s pretty special raising families and building lives rooted in the same values we were raised with.
So proud of the legacy our family continues to build and the values passed down through generations. Life on the ranch isn’t always easy, but it sure is rewarding.
Life is good… real good!
