Pairiehawk was telling us about her watching dancing humming birds last night out of our big country kitchen/dinning room bay window I saw two new born calves jumping and dancing around each other they were so cute too. I just stood there enjoying them they seemed to be "testing" their new legs, lol d hubby has 2 brothers living across the creek one in the old farm house he and his family fixed up and the other up on the other hill in their new home We have about 13 or a little more head of cattle between us the calves are so cute. we have several new ones. they always come up around dinner time and watch us eat our supper through our new kitchen /dinning room bay window I sorta fell guilty though when we have hamburgers!! lol hugs sheila
Sheila, Do you watch Fringe? Last weeks episode 2 guys were eating bugers in a lab where there is a cow and one tole the other to try to be discreet. Thought it was a hoot. I am so jealous. To live in beautiful aVirginia AND to have cows. You are one lucky gal Michele
Michele NO, I don't watch that show that is so funny ha. I love Va. I hardly ever get to go out of Va. it is a good thing I like where I live lol I love being back in the country, hugs sheila
It really is fun to watch the calves play. I got a new little jersey bull calf right now. Last night he was trying to be all tough, and jump around and play and butt, when I was cleaning the pen. Our beefers usually played alot just before dark. Maybe that helps them settle down to sleep!

Watching our calves run and jump is one of my favorite times of spring. They always seem to get more active when their mama's are eating at chore time and not keeping as close a eye on them as usual. Enjoy their antics.

With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.
Sheila, sounds like you are really enjoying your new home. And the veiw looks so good, too. That's what we do at our table. Watch RFD TV. It sure is entertaining and it's free! My Cowboy has an appointment with the butcher the 20th. Just 2 more weeks! But I'm leaving him hanging in the cooler for 10 days so it will be around the first of Nov. before we have those burgers. Yum!! I can hardly wait! So have fun with your little guys and enjoy the view!

Sheila - I'm with you. There is nothing like watching the little ones at play. I especially love it when one of our little bull calves try to take on their daddy, Elvis. 80 lbs. vs. 2500 lbs is quite a difference, but we really love it when Elvis lets them win!
