Alright, so I had a new experience today. Last Saturday my dad's farm got three new little calves (each are about 7 months old so they're not brand new). My mom loves them and has named the three after her mother and aunts. So, they're names are Verla, Norma, and Fawn. Kind of funny to name cows, but eh, who am I to judge? lol
Anyway, my parents will be traveling back to Utah in about a week leaving me at home to do the laundry, cooking, etc. Guess what else that leaves me to do? That's right. I get to take care of the cows! O_O Scary thought! If one of them dies while I'm in charge I'll feel terrible. So yes, that was my new experience. I didn't bring my camera with me, but I'll have many chances of taking pictures of them for the next few weeks so I'm sure you'll get at least one picture in this blog. haha
On a little neat note, these cows are special cows. For those of you who don't know, there's a difference between milk cows and beef cows. Anyway, the reason these cows are special is because they are both. They'll be milk cows for who knows how many years, but as they get near the end of their life we can use them as a beef cow. Neat huh? I don't think we'll be running out of steaks for a long time when that happens. haha
