On the farm...


Junie & the cows!








Today Charles called me from the pasture when he went to feed the cows to tell me we had another baby girl calf !
She is a little dark brown calf-and right away the name Gypsy came to mind! So I told him to name her Gypsy Rose! :) He didn't like it, much, but I always go with my first thought in names...well- almost always!

Here are the pictures of the babies!


Top to bottom:

Gypsy Rose

Silver Bell

How-Now

~~~

~and here is a little Bull a little bit older than these 3 babies!

His name is 'FuzzyFace!'



~~

Last but not least I give you 'Big John.'

This is the new bull we bought from a neighbor. Charles is quite pleased with this one.














...a good day in the country!


Love,

Junie

  1. Oh they are soooo cute!! I love the names you've picked, especially "How Now"
    My grandma would often greet us by saying "How Now Brown Cow" which seems sort of silly, doesn't it??

  2. Hi Susie,

    LOL- you kinda begin to run out of names after a few years of having cows,goats,pigs,ducks,geese, chickens,dogs, cats,fish,hamsters,gerbils,mice, a monkey-a pony-an Iguana -snakes - turtles...

    :) I'm sure I'm not remembering ALL the critters we've had over the years!
    ...Well- a family can have a lot of pets over 45+ years!

    ;) I think that was a cute way for your grandmother to greet you!

  8. Junie, I came here to the comments to tell you that I thought "How-Now" was the most hilarious name ever for a brown cow, but I see everyone has beaten me to it! That name is soooo funny! I've had a chuckle over it a couple of times now! :)

  11. Hi Skye,

    :0 I'm happy you find the name funny! Well- it's the first name that came to me when C. told me about the little brown calf! So she got stuck with the name!;)

    Hope you're having a good day today!

    As for eating these cows - so far we haven't! After I NAME THEM they are pretty safe- at least from our table!

    We do have to sell some of them as we go along but I convience myself they are not butchered! :)
