It's Finally Here!

The day I have been waiting for is finally here!  SPRING!  I love the Spring season.  The sun shining, shorts, flip-flops, cool breeze, and of course the cows are able to go adventure outside after a long winter!  There was much discussion early this week when the cows would be able to leave the free stall barn.  Even though the snow and ice may had melted conditions were still muddy earlier this week.  Brandon and I discussed today might be the day, and it was the day!!  While at work (in house), I looked outside and there they were, the wonderful lovely ladies enjoying the sunshine.  So I just had to take a "break" and capture this moment.  You can almost see all their smiling faces. 
The girls were quick to lay down to enjoy the sunshine.  Not much green grass right now, but you can see it coming!
This lady was going ahead and digging into what grass there was.  Happy healthy cows always eat!


As you can see there is more than just Guernseys around this place.  Some Holsteins, and a scatter of Brown Swiss. (Owned by Ryan a farm helper)


I think she spotted us looking down at here up the barn!  This is one of my favorites on the farm.  Possible show cow as well!!

I almost forgot.  Earlier today on our way home after going to town.  I spotted the most beautiful creature in the field.  The one and only American symbol of freedom, the Bald Eagle!!  This is the second one I have seen since I have been here.  They are really gorgeous birds.


I couldn't get extra close, but there he/she is.  In the corn field next to the house!!

I hope to be writing tomorrow with some excellent news.  Tonight Four Winds Regis Disco is being flushed for embryos.  Good Luck to us! Have a wonderful evening!!  Remember to always stay Golden!
