A Cow... :)

This is actually kind of old news but it's what's on my mind right now, and I think you might all enjoy what is on my mind! ;)
So we have a cow! This is not shocking news, considering all the other farm life we have going on at my house (and no, I'm not talking about my brothers). But yes we have a cow. Its quite funny cuz, we always told ourselves we wouldn't get a cow, but we did!

She is a Holstein milk cow, 5 years old, and she has the BEST name you have ever heard, her name is Maribelle (Isn't that cute?). About 4 weeks ago Maribelle had her baby!!!! He is soooo cute, but I have some very sad news to share with you, he... well HE is a HHEEE.... and that means that we have to sell him to the slaughter house. I know I am sorry you have to hear this oh so sad news. But it is true, we cannot keep him, that would cost TOO much money to feed a bull, just for fun. But he is cute, and I enjoy his cuteness everyday as I drag him away from his mom, so that I can milk her! ;) haha So yes he is cute, but not very friendly, which is fine, because I don't want to grow attached. We have not named him, I just call him Baby Cow. But my neighbor, named him Buford. I think thats a good name for this cute little bull. Here are some pictures of him... :)

So you might be wondering why my sister and I own a cow. Well, we sell her milk to any locals who are looking for tasty, raw, fresh cow's milk. The milk that we sell is not pasteurized in any way. She is grass fed, and very healthy. So if you would like to buy any grass-fed, raw cow's milk let us know!!! :D
