GRASS GREW SOME MORE
Well, thankfully the thunder and lightning and wild storms never came yesterday, all we had was a bit of dark drizzle so I let Aunty Del and her leggy calf out into a sopping afternoon for a stroll.
It was a warm damp day – a grass growing day. Maybe the last one. The last warm day. The last warm grass growing day.
This was a lovely image (below) of mother and daughter that did not quite transfer into a picture. But I will make a card of it anyway.
MIlking times are now switched to mid-afternoon. Late afternoon has a better chance of being the warmest part of the day. Freezing weather makes the pump struggle. In fact, the pulsator won’t even pulse if it is too cold. I need to set up the milking lights again. Both for light and for warming the pulsator.
I might make a card out of these two dingbats too. Though it will be a very brown card their wide eyes make me smile.
I hope you have a lovely day.
Love celi

Buy or Browse. Here is the 2018 Calendar. I have left it customizable so if you want to add important dates to the calendar I believe you can. Today I will make a smaller cheaper one as well and I will give you that link tomorrow. I intend to make one in every size so we can all have one that fits our budgets, especially if (like me) you are buying more than one.
Amazon – I am adding Christmas Stuff in the Amazon Things page and am focussing on small women’s items this week.
Enjoy

Those two look like they are at a peep show!
Yes they do!!! And they are enjoying every moment of the peep show!!! 🙂
That last photo cracks me up! They look like a pair of horrified elderly ladies who’ve seen something scandalous and can’t wait to tell the whole village!
Chuckles galore from that photograph & you & Mad this morning. Will have to have a pack of these postcards.
All they need is an Easter bonnet each, and the effect would be complete…
Great comments all! They made the picture even more memorable.
The dingbats are hysterical. And the mommy and baby are beautiful. I love the protective curve of her body around the baby with the hip bones in the foreground, as if to say, No Trespassing, while the baby looks a wee bit curious about what is out there on the other side of that maternal barrier.
Loved the two half sisters first greeting, with watchful mothers close by 🙂 Laura
If those two cows had on fancy ladies hats – like ladies Sunday church hats – I would buy a HUGE print for my kitchen!!!! They look like church ladies who have had a shock!
So happy the calendars are ready – I just love your annual calendar. It’s a little smile each 1st of the month!
I wonder who made that path in the grass. Doesn’t look like a cow path, not wide enough. The pictures are wonderful. Auntie Del has a lovely calf all snuggled up with her. The dingbats….perfect description….alarm, surprise, aghast at what the chickens are talking about? Perfect.
Yes, that is a cow path – they follow it up to the barn every day. Carefully placing one foot in front of the other. You think they would trip themselves up.
So Boss!
Love the photo of the dingbats!
Moo!
That last image is a perfect card idea… for many occasions! I love that first photo too… you know much of my life in the wild is about following the animal trails. It’s the best highway ever!
I am laughing out loud at those two ding bats! and the newest calf is adorable. Lovely sweet photo of mother and daughter!
Great photos and glad the storm missed you. I keep an eye on them hoping you all stay safe. LOVE the photos! Well, I love all your photos. Hope you have a wonderfilled day.
All your animals are well taken care of, it shows in the pictures.
I’m delighting in that cow trail….how, oh so carefully, they have walked a path around that clump of grass time and again! Truly ‘engrained’ behavior (pun intended). Thanks! Fantastic photos and LOVE the ‘dingbats’!
Love all the photos but especially the one of mother/daughter and the two dingbats. Absolutely wonderful!
I love the last pic! Congratulations on the new baby! She is adorable.
Carlos must have figured out how to use a stepladder after two years with Aunty Del! His calves are beautiful, so tiny and mostly dark like him.
:Love the dingbats. I’m sure what they were looking at wasn’t really all that scandalous, but they sure got the expressions right for it. Made my day.
