We're very busy with last minute touches on the farm prior to our milking cows arriving. Tad installed 3 lights for the loafing barn this weekend. Dad worked on booster pump and water lines. Shawn worked on 4 cow waterers and helped dad rebuild the booster pump. Diana has been very busy tidying up the barns and wiping down the parlor. She also helped me spray down the parlor. I sprayed gallons and gallons of water on all the concrete in the parlor and office and utility room. Hannah and I painted the office floor and I put two coats of sealer on the concrete in the parlor and milk house. The children and I also painted some shelves for the parlor. Lots of blue paint on shelves and kids! The children have also been extremely busy putting miles and miles on their bikes and big wheel. They have a massive race track right now going up and down the holding area to the feed alley and runway where the cows will stand to eat. That will change when the cows come home! Happy Anniversary to Jeff and Tammy! We've really missed you Jeff! It's like you were part of the barn! Glad you can have time away though.
