NEWS Thanks to Haley, Trevor, & Ty Bickelhaupt and Lauren McMillan for their purchase of our Belle x Neon Embryos! These 4 juniors will be a force in the coming years and we look forward to watching them! CONGRATS TAMAR!

The big news here this spring is that Tamar is graduating! She will graduate validectorian of her class and will be attending Kansas State University this fall as an animal science major. She has been fortunate to show some good cattle and even more fortunate to have become friends with some great people. Just a few of them are pictured below. We sincerely thank all of you who have encouraged and taught her along the way.

Tamar, Papaw & Howie July 2000 Papaw (Howard Unger) brought this little steer home from Morgan Ranch when Tamar was just 8. Tamar fell in love with him and Howie returned the favor by winning quite a bit that summer. Tamar was "hooked" - no doubt what Papaw had planned all along!		Tamar, Vixen, & Connor July 2009 Who would have thought that 9 short years later Tamar's senior pictures would be taken with 2 IL Supreme Champions and a JNHE Res Grand?!
Tamar, Vixen and Kyle McMillan It would be impossible to measure how much Tamar has learned from Kyle. The McMillans are truly a special family, we are fortunate to count them as friends!		Tamar, Connor & John Bickelhaupt We didn't really know the "Bickels" until Connor - wow what a fun ride that took us all on! We now count them as close friends and are lucky to have them in our lives!
Tamar and Larry Benedict This is after Connor was Reserve at JNHE. Tamar was so overwhelmed - it came flooding out as happy tears! Luckily there was a good shoulder to lean on. We love the Benedict family and think the world of them!		Ryan Todd and Brian Elliott The gang at Elliott Cattle Company are a lot of fun and these two guys treat Tamar like a little sister - love to aggrevate her but are as protective as heck! She's lucky to have them - even if she wouldn't admit it!
The Crew of "Camp Adcock" Last year, the Adcock kids had the Bickelhaupts and Lauren McMillan come for an afternoon at "Camp Adcock". Lots of fun and hopefully some learning the ropes of showing! We are missing Lauren in this photo.		The Adcock & Stephens Girls Fortunate to grow up in the same county, this friendship started at the Christian county fair! They have traveled to JNHEs together and no doubt will be life-long friends.
Del, Tamar, & Dean Tamar is a demanding barn manager and the boys have learned a lot from her. They won't admit it but they have a lot of respect for her and will miss her next year!		Tamar and Taryn Known as Big T and Little T in volleyball. Exciting to watch little sister set big sister on the CAM varsity this year! Its been fun to watch them become really close.
