Baby Animals 2020 edition



Baby Animals Spring 2020
Have you been waiting for my annual baby animal picture post?  
The wait is over! Enjoy the cuteness!

May 5th:  Laura went and picked up our 200 chicks! They loose their baby fluff so fast- and by the time they are a few days old, they start to feather out.


May 6th: First of Nate's beef calves was born, with assistance. She was coming backwards, so Nate and Grace had to pull her. Thankfully, she's was fine and is doing well now. (Note the cow in the background is not her mama...) 

May 12th: First dairy calf of the year was born. She was a pint-sized mostly Jersey heifer- but she's growing. :)

May 15th: 3 kids and 2 lambs arrived.



And then there were more!







 Matt's twin calves:





Current baby animal count: (And we still have a ways to go...)
Dairy Calves: 27
Beef Calves: Not sure, around 30  [That's what I was told when I asked. 😉 ]
Kids:10
Lambs:7

      Your caption for the first picture is great! :)

      I agree, animals can be hard to photograph- but most of them cooperated quite well this year...

Around the Farm 2023

Hello! This is Grace taking a turn with the blog. I really enjoyed taking pictures this year as I was working around the farm so I thought I would share some of them. I am so grateful to be able to work in God's creation every day and see the beauty of His creation. These pictures are a combination of scenery, plants, animals, and a few other things that will give you a glimpse of my life. This post is long, but I hope you enjoy it! Making plans for the year.

They had the entire pasture covered like this.     The Cows don't mind the Cowbirds.

Montana 2024

   For our family trip this year we went to Montana! We took lots of pictures and I am finally getting some shared with you. Enjoy! On the way out, we stopped to see the North Dakota badlands in Teddy Roosevelt National Park.     The first night we camped at a campground on the East edge of Glacier National Park. The next day, we made our way through the park. Then we crossed the 560' Hungry Horse Dam and camped on the reservoir. The next day we went for a hike. Huckleberries!! The mountainside was covered in huckleberries and we had a lot of fun picking some to bring home. We went back to the East side of the mountains to camp that night, then hiked part way up the mountain the next morning before heading for home.

2020 WY Hunting Trip

My brothers headed to WY in early October on a mule deer hunting trip.  I sent the camera with them, and it came home with lots pictures on it, (good job guys!)   Happy, happy hunters! One of my favorite pictures from their trip. This blog post will features the some of the pictures that they took.  I'm not even going to attempt at the stories. If you want stories you'll have to get them first hand, straight from the source!!  I know they'd enjoy telling you about their adventures. ☺   Nate's first WY buck Packing it out...  Matt found some treasures... And then a buck!! They had a little run in with these bad boys...  Silas didn't get a deer this year- but had fun anyway!  They even took a picture of the cute baby donkey for us!
