This week was full of blessings and busyness! We made butter with the kids at school, had a day packed with breeding, milk pick-up, and a little nostalgia looking back at my husband’s childhood treasures.
And just when we thought the week couldn’t get sweeter — our Holstein Crickette gave birth to a beautiful baby heifer, Cookies n’ Cream! 🍪🐮
We have so much to be thankful for this year and every year here on the farm. First and foremost, we thank our Lord and Savior for every blessing. Even on the hard days, we’re grateful for each other and for the work we’re called to do.
They say every baby is a blessing — and for us, this week brought two! Check out the next episode to meet baby number two… both healthy heifers!
