Beef is what's for dinner!

Well we begin our first post with the happenings of Friday.
To make a long story short, Two cows got struck by lightning after a really bad thunderstorm.
Thankfully we found the cows before they had been dead very long, so we were able to butcher the bull ( but unfortunately we didn't have time to get the other cow, and it was about 15 years old anyway so we just buried it) After grinding and packaging all the meat we had a big Steak dinner:) And to finish off the evening we played a few games and fellowshipped with Most of the ones that helped.

Enjoy the pictures below.

In Christ,
Livy
