Evelyn and Golder Face

Here is Evelyn doing what she does best...taking care of the kittens!

Spring/Summer 2010

Here's what we have been up to....

Pearl and Royce having a tractor race around our driveway!

Evie working on her model pose...she tells me that models aways have to look a "little mad."

My Mother's Day gift...a milking machine!! This is supposed to make life a lot easier...













...working on getting the garden expanded, planted and fenced. We've planted lots of tomatoes, peppers, carrots, peas, lettuce, watermelon and onions.

Weed Eater

Here are our new weed eaters! The ram (Lambert) has the black halter and the ewe lamb (Ma) has the blue halter. They are Katahdins, a type of hair sheep which means no shearing!

Busy Busy

Wow, we've been busy! Here are some pictures to show what we've been up to...

First, Pearl with a blue ribbon for the long jump at Field Day.

Next, Royce at the lake eating a sandwich.

And, unfortunately, no good picture of Evelyn, but here is what follows me around when I go outside, our meat birds.

The grand finale, Banjo showcasing our wysteria in bloom. What do you think Annie, could he be a guest contestant on Pugject Runway?

Cookies and cream

Here is the new baby!! Finally, after years of waiting we have fresh milk, yummy! The kids named the baby Oreo, he is a bull calf, 1/2 Jersey and 1/2 Holstein. Here is a picture of him just after birth (which I missed) and one of him today, 5 days old.
