Farm Friday

Here's a little fun cow trivia for today!

Found this over at Kat's Cafe and thought it was pretty neat! Six miles is pretty far away to smell something!
Much thanks to Katrina at Kat's Cafe for helping me fix the broken image! :)

Saying Goodbye to T'Pol

We lost our sweet T'Pol today :(

Our Red Lineback T'Pol

She's been down for so long there was no way she was going to get back up again, and she gave up fighting. She's going to be sadly missed around here. When S was a little kid and she was a calf he used to curl up with her. She loved to have you stick your finger in her ear and rub like crazy. She was never my biggest fan, S was hers and she didn't like it so much when I was around, but she was never mean just preferred him. She was always so tolerant of Bug when she was little and let Bug do pretty much whatever she wanted to her. We are sad to see her go, but would have hated to watch her suffer. S dug a hole and buried her here with some of our other beloved cows and doggies. RIP T'Pol!

Bug and the Cows

Bug and I spent a little time in the barn last night with daddy. Bug was insistent that we needed to go down and even ran to get her barn boots so we could go out with daddy. We have a cow down who is very special to all of us and I thought it was a good excuse to go give her a little bit of love and affection.

Bug cracks us up she's terrified of the babies when they moo but she'll get right up in the faces of the milk cows with no problem. She rubbed T-Pol's (yes my husband is a Star Trek geek!) ears and nose for quite awhile telling her to get better and "no be sick". I love that we will be raising our kids on a dairy farm. Seeing the compassion in Bugs eyes as she talked to that cow was heartwarming. I think she's going to grow up to be daddys little helper, that is once she gets over her fear of the calves noises!
