Another advenature on the farm..

It snowed last night we had about 20 some inches of snow. Gordon and I decided we needed to go and check the heifers . He was worried about one of the heifers .So decieded to go into ww and get some breakfast.but we didn't make . We got stuck on the highway ..Thank God for cell phones. We called the county and they brought a snow blower and resuced us .We was there for about 4 hours.... So for breakfast we had water and peanuts..It was kinda fun. I took pictures .When we got resuced we went home and stayed until late afternoon. and we finally got in to check the herifer .. and no she didn't have her baby.. .As you can see I don't have a dull moment with Gordon.. There is always something new going on... here are some pics of the snow..

well it all the new calves have been born.We have 4 more and then we're finished. I learn one more thing about being a farmers wife.. I learned how to herd the cows and the calves off the wheat field. You take a long stick and you yell at them and walk across the wheat field with them..This wasn't very much fun.. It was cold and there was alot green stuff on the ground.,(yuck). But Gordon said we did a good job getting them into the lane.

So today we are going to work in the yard and get ready for spring.This will be my favorite time of the year with all the flowers that we have.We also started our garden .We got onions and patotes in the ground.. So we will have all kinds

my lastes lesson in being a farmers wife??

Don't get out of the truck when a cow just had a baby..... This morning i went with Gordon to check the cow for new babies and we had three or four of them.So Gordon wanted to put them on the wheat field . He started herding them down the side of the pasture and he got one in the corner of the field and he told me to get out and yell at her to get moving instead she turned around and started charging at me.. So i run to the truck and closed the door.. Gordon was surprises that she charged me and he said he never saw me move as fast as i did toward the truck.. Then we got her started to the wheat field and she turned around and chared the truck.. He said i had the funnest look on my face.. Now i know not to get out of the truck when a cow has a new baby..

my lastest lesson..

Sorry i haven't posted anything lately but we have been busy. A couple of weekend ago i went out to Troy's and Erin and Tatum's . Friday we went to watch Tatum's first gymnastic class it was so cute.She had alot of fun and i know Erin did.. I think Troy had fun watching them too.. There was 19 little kids in Tatum's group.. Like I said it was to cute.. Well i ended up getting sick out there so i left early Sunday morning and got home around 11:00 and spent the rest of the day in my chair.
Well, i guess you want to know my latest lesson..Troy youll get a kick out of this..Gordon and I are calving out some heifers for Calvin.And we had some Gordon was worried about.So we was going to put the ones that was going to have problems with a corral..And so we had to sort them out.. well i let the ones out that was suppose to stay in the pen.So we had to get them back in the pen and start all over again this time in dark... This time i did a fairly good job only one got out that was suppose to stay in..Gordon calls me a "city girl" and i need some lesson on sorting.. Now i see what Troy does.. Its hard.. Well that just about it for now.. We have to go out later on in the night to check the calves..
