Since we buy our meat and milk from this farm, it was even more cool to see how our milk is processed; from the cow to the jug!

| They knew what time it was. Everybody lined up. Number 41 won 1st place at the 2013 Fort Worth Stock Show for the Holstein breed. I believe she is a returning champ. |

| The white one is the bull! He got the boot! |

Awwwww that's so sweet and what a learning experience for Katie. I beleive more children should have access or actually be raised in this type of environment. I was so fortunate to grow up on a large farm in Texas and I learned so much. For most the thought it's the simple life, but it's really hard work but so rewarding at the same time. I'm so glad y'all had the opportunity and know you'll find your country home soon. Love Y'all Mimi
