Banker in the Blue House

You know from the introduction that our grandfather helped get us started by purchasing our first calves for us.  What you might not know is that we live on a farm with our grandparents.  Our house is red and theirs is blue. 

You also might not know that our parent's are behind us 100% in this venture but not financially.  All the work on the leased property and all the cost of the animals and feed is paid for by us, not them.  We are thankful, however to have a backer. 

Recently we realized that feed costs would exceed our savings before winter was over.  We were going to need help.  Jake went next door to discuss the situation with Papaw.  He said, "I didn't know I was going into the cattle business."  To which Jake replied, "You're not. You're going into the banking business!"  He laughed and said he could help get us through.  We were relieved to hear it.

We are blessed to have a banker next door in the blue house.
