Frosty Morning

This picture was taken a few days ago

Today it was actually 10C in the morning

tomorrow morning will be much colder

Our dry cows like to sleep in front of our house

Red Sky

 we have red in the evening

and a bit less red in the morning

I'm up way to early these days :)

Leaf Shower

Saturday was a great day to take pictures

It was raining leaves

Manure on the Last day of the Week

Now this looks promising

The pit is full 

 even after the discovery just pushed the manure in it's foaming back up

prepare for pumping

a piece of steel was welded on to make it

32"x44" to fit our track

a load of Wood

A load of wood for the basement

Ashes outside and in the garden

fill up the dump wagon again with garden cleanings

Haloween

The guys had a great night

No Rain Please

The soybeans at the neighbours

are still there and look at the threatening sky

we've had morning frost

We are hoping for sun (no rain) for a while

we hope to get the manure out soon

Sarah's Shower

We had a shower for Sarah

There were little kids

young moms

 and Party Games

some people are really good at collecting cloth pins

Holstein Banquet

We had to be early

Because Henriette was the chair person

We picked up our entry in the photo contest

but missed the phone call from the real people

The food was very good but the program is a tat long

The gift that they always give to a Master Breeder is...

...a cane

wonder what that is communicating about the Dairy industry

Olga, Stephen & the WTS connection

 Friday evening Olga & Stephen got engaged

 In the garden of Dr.Tim Brown 

where they saw each other for the first time

August last year

and this is Stephen's senior pastor

Olga & Stephen have asked Rev. Josh Van Leeuwen 

to officiate at their wedding

amazingly this WTS pamphlet

was in our church mailboxes this morning
