Our day begins with a beautiful sunrise spreading over the eastern sky.
Cows are waiting for us in their free stalls...

But even before the sun is up we're already milking.
The cows in the parlor now are lined up eight on each side.

When the milking is finished there are hungry babies to feed!
Teamwork on a summer day! 







Daily chores range from grinding our own cow feed in this big grinder,






Great wash job buddy!
Some others are hungry too this morning
so we're loading up balage...
Yum!
Or on warm summer days they go out to pasture...
Hauling load after load of manure,
Enjoying a new baby,
Assembling a new calf hutch for it,
Watching someone love their work,
Our seasons flip flopped rather quickly today but you get the idea! :)

SNOW and its almost March!! Never seen such a thing. I guess thats because we live in Florida :) I love the pics of the farm. When does it warm up there? It's been about 78 here this week and we're getting ready to plant the spring garden.
Isn't farm life grand?!
