MAY

Welcome back!
We hope you had a great May! :) 
For us, May started out with bit of an adventure! 
We were given our first ever bottle calf and got Priscilla (the milk cow) to adopt her! 
We also celebrated two Birthdays, Mother’s Day and Mom and Dad’s 25th wedding anniversary!!
So, without further delay, here we go!
Peanut, this cute little bull calf from our dear neighbors, was a twin who was rejected by his momma.  Our neighbors bottle-fed him for a week and then offered him to us.  Since our milk cow, Priscilla was still in milk production, we figured this was perfect timing, because we could raise him on her milk.
At first Priscilla wanted nothing to do with him, so we bottle fed him for a couple weeks.
Meanwhile,…
We got a kick out of this photo series with Norah and her favorite pig, Stanley.
He makes mud holes the exact same size as his body.

Creek days with the fam! If it’s 100 degrees outside, you know where to find us.

A few (7 to be exact) lambs were welcomed to the flock!


Everyone get your lamb holding time in before they become too big & fast!!
Anna got her driver’s license!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She’s now our personal Uber!
It’s that time of year again when the littles come to the front porch 
and show off the huge frogs they just caught!
Thank you so much for stopping by!! 
Until next time……..

Memories From March

Hello all! We're back again! Man, what a busy month! Several birthdays, fun events, farm life, and everyday happenings! Shall we begin? This month literally started out with Norah turning 11! Here's just a few of her birthday photos!  This year, Norah requested a doughnut cake! Two doughnuts a person! Let's just say we all felt horrible that night. Loading more pigs up  Isaiah still doesn't know what to think of the sheep Izzy and Mr. Grumpy Gills  Katherine started riding a two-wheeler bike, with a little help from the training wheels! She could totally be a model!  Chick season has come around the corner...again! This will always be a favorite!  They make for good pets...when they're little anyway!  When you don't have a tractor and you need to seed the fields...  ...and chop broom grass down When Mom's not putting the food in your mouth fast enough  Meet the new bull calf, Demitri! ...

August In A Nutshell

Hello folks!  We hope you all had a great August!  This month Mom, Dad, and Isaiah drove to CO to drop Peyton and Norah off, so they could visit with our Grandmas for two weeks. They were supposed to go to Germany and Austria with Grandma Mary in June, but, due to covid19, they weren’t able to go.  But they still needed some Grandma time! We also butchered around 300 chickens this month. We’ve never butchered that many at the same time before, so we broke them up into two different butcher days. (Since we had to cut up 200 of them).  And took steers to the butcher!!!  August was also ‘drought  month’ for MO. The fields turned crispy brown,  which hasn’t been helpful for our grazing cattle.   Thankfully, we’ve gotten some good rains right at the end of the month,  and things have once again greened up! Priscilla (my cow) FINALLY had her calf!! We’ve been waiting so long for her to arrive! (YES!!! She had a heifer!!!!!!) So, the process of milk...
