Cows and Clouds

Friday the 13th was preg check day.

Not as good as last year,

but not bad.

The cows and calves were waiting to be reunited.

That was a morning of beautiful colors.

Dad gets the credit for this photo.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving

 and His courts with praise!

Give thanks to Him;

bless His name!

Ps. 100:4

Through Him then let us continually 

offer up a sacrifice of praise to God,

that is, 

the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

Heb. 13:15

I will praise the name of God with a song; 

I will magnify Him with thanksgiving.

Ps. 69:30

Let us come into His presence with thanksgiving;

let us make a joyful noise to Him with songs of praise.

Ps. 95:2

Praise the Lord!

I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart.

Ps. 111:1

I give thanks to You,

O Lord my God,

with my whole heart,

I will glorify your name forever.

Ps. 86:12

Spoiled Baby

There is a serious possibility that 

Celsius may be spoiled.

Maybe really spoiled.

She's not too sure about Hershey and Tess,

but she LOVES her people!

She follows right on our heels and walks on our feet.

Time to go in for the night, ladies.

 No one was too anxious to get up and move 

after nap time Sunday.

Just Because They Are So Cute

The cows and calves were let out on the pasture a week ago.

Amos was lovin' it!

Theodore is still a bottle calf,

but he mooches off all of the moms all day long.

Sunflower is very protective of Sunkist.

Is Crush adorable or what?!

Cheyenne has been informed of the consequences 

if she doesn't shape up and take care of Celsius.

So far she doesn't care.

So Celsius and Theodore are bottle babies.
Theodore only gets it because he's adorable and he begs for it!

I sat outside

in total awe

of God's artwork.

I didn't know what I was doing

so the pictures are not perfect by a long shot.

But even if they were,

the true beauty of God's handiwork

could not be captured.

Miss Celsius

The smallest calf we've ever had was 61 pounds.  

That was several years ago.

 

And then this little girl came along

to finish off the year.

Here she is next to Theodore who is the smallest of the twins.

24 hours after birth she weighed in at 39 pounds!
Thirty-nine!!

She is a teeny-tiny little spaz-o-matic!

So, to bring the calving season to an end,
Cheyenne had tiny, little Miss Celsius!

18-22

I like when the weeks go like this.

Five of them in 6 days.

On the 22nd

Nunie had Fanta

 

             and Snowbird had Schweppes.

Thursday, Havana had Fresca.

Dove had Crush on Friday.

To finish out the week

B-1 had the 22nd calf of the year,

19-19.
