HEY!! Hay is for horses!

We’re back from our vacation and it was difficult to leave… Don’t get me wrong, we know we’re still on summer vacation (no offense to those who work year-round!), but it’s not the same than being in a different place and experiencing new things and breathing different air…

Now that I have pictures, here’s a little recap from our week at the dairy farm.
The Farm:






This one is of me and Breezie the Pug. I'm trying to imitate her look.


The Cows:
--uh, you got a little somethin’ there…

--eat with your mouth closed!

--twins!

--got milk?

--Matt shooting at the pigeons (he killed three)

--me & a cow (I’m trying not to get licked)

--me & another cow (at a safer distance)

--somebody needs a tissue

--one of these cows is not like the other…

--teenagers get their own space

--me & the teens, as always


The Hoof Trimmer:
--the terrible machine that put the cows on their sides

--see how he’s sawing off the bottom and sides of the hooves?



Family:
We had ice cream out with the family!
--Gus & Kay

--Henry & Lisa

--Us

  1. Yee Haw!!! You in overalls! Never thought I'd see the day!! My eyes are still wet after laughing hard at "one of these cows is not like the other!"....still chuckling!! And pigeon shooting doesn't cause a stampeed??? Matt, you should come over here and shoot some of our annoying crows! The teens are so cute!! Too bad they don't stay that way. Someone ought to teach the older ones some manners!! Mom

  2. Yeah, I had fun with those cow comments--they're just too fun!! Those overalls are Gus' and they make me look fat, but he's not fat at all, so I have no idea why they are so big. And no, the shooting sounded more like a SNAP so it didn't scare the cows. I wish I could put a scratch and sniff on this blog for ya'll to get a real sense of the farm...

  3. Shao-Shen,

    Either you have lost a ton of weight or you are buying your overalls at the farmer's Lane Bryant!

    Love you. dad
