BD & I took the boys to the Farm & Ranch Show today. This is their idea of a great time. Andrew wanted to milk the "wooden" cow, and then he made butter by shaking the little plastic container. The lady at the booth helped just a little to get the butter to the right consistency. He ate it right up on the pretzels. I will post a sample of the dozens of trucks, tractors, and other implements Josh & Andrew tried out.
Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and it was so. God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everthing that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
Carlene, here are a few of the pictures you requested. The girls (milk cows) in the feeding barn after they were milked and next to them are some young Jersey heifers. I was only able to get a few shots of the beef cattle........the evening I went to take pictures they were scattered. The calves with the momma cow are twin heifers. Does this make you home sick for Kansas? Opps, the pictures did not post in the order I described them.....but, you get the picture.
Did I tell you, these are only a few of the cats? Such variety!
Okay Carlene.....I had to send the pictures of our barn cats. I know you are a big "cat lover".... I had to share. I took a long walk around the farm taking pictures today. It was such a beautiful Sunday afternoon. These cats have it made. The cow pictures you requested will be coming to the blog soon. Oh, and I had to get the little ophran lamb in here too! Our Gracie loves cats, so I hope she enjoys this post, as well.
Katie & Craig had their "Life Group" meeting in their home last Sunday night. We agreed to keep the children at our house. There were eight of them. It was lively to say the least. They ranged from under age one to six. A good time was enjoyed by all!
