My Current Favorite Picture



This is just the coolest picture. There were cows on the other side of the fence eating apples that we were throwing them. The kids were having a blast - as were the adults that wandered across the road with them.


At first they just kinda kept their distance - the little arms weren't flinging the apples quarters quite far enough - and the momma cows were not 100% certain about how much to trust us. Most of the babies - are there are 6 babies this year! - are pretty young. I imagine the mommas are thinking of safety. Then, once one cow came up and found an apple slice - they were all moving a bit closer. The kids started squealing then though - so the cows backed off a bit. It was sweet. And it was cheap entertainment being it was in our backyard and the apples had "icky we can't eat them" spots on them.













But honestly, the cows are really kinda gross - all those flies and all that poop just all over the place. Eck!
