Every year the UW wrestling team goes out to McGill Ranch and helps him brand all of his cattle. In return, the wrestlers are allowed to hunt and fish on his land. This year, Ben decided that Will was finally old enough to go. I think it was the best day of his life...
All the cows to be branded...
Will and Dad.

They got him!
Good work Will!

This one (above) is my favorite. If you watch closely, after Ben and Will get the calf down, you can see them give each other "daps."
Come on you two! Get him!

Will looks like he's just "one of the guys" out on a normal days work branding cattle. I too like the video of Ben and Will giving each other knuckles after they took the calf down. I bet Vance is going to beg you to get to go next year!
These are delightful, Kelli! Will doesn't look a bit reluctant to hop right in and get his hands dirty. (Takes after his grandpa?) What a neat experience for him! Vance must be beside himself when he sees these pictures...
