Feeding Bulls 

Bottle calves 

Vacation

As the weekend before Thanksgiving Holidays is here I have been looking forward to not having to get up and get kids ready and go to school.   After sleeping in a little bit the kids and I left the house in a rush to help pull a calf and then found ourselves not getting back home until lunch time.

Now they are taking care of the orphan calf as we take it to its new mama. 

Sun setting at the barn as we are going to feed the bottle calves.  Even though it is always busy and always work. We treasure it. Truly treasure it. 

Back and forth.....It's silage time!

It's that time of year again...... Chopping silage. Makes for long days for everyone and is without a doubt a family affair. We've also appreciated the help of some neighbors and friends.

Packing. I have helped pack here and there when needed but these guys have been on a tractor or dump truck at least 10 hours a day for the last 4 days and probably another few days to go.
