Cycle

And so the cycle of life comes around once again. Here is our first calf of the year.
Momma and baby did great. Since this photo was taken, we have had 7 more calves born without complications and haven't lost any. This is really good considering we have some first time mommas this year. We added 7 new mommas total, but 5 will not have babies till the fall. So, at the moment we have 4 black, 3 red, and one charcoal colored babies. The new bull is throwing smaller calves so this will make a big difference for the new moms.

On the homefront, things have been about the same. We are expecting our first litter of puppies in a couple of months. Here is the proud Daddy:
He has no care in the world. As you can see he is chillin' and figures his work is done. He will leave the hard part to the female.

I will have to post pictures of the garden later now that I have figured out how to use my new camera I got for Christmas.
