This past week Liz came home for college spring break and helped mom (Laura) finish wallpapering the kitchen and mud-room. Then, they worked on putting the house back together, including pictures or wall ornaments.
This coming week Mik is visiting Liz at Saint Catherine University on Monday and Tuesday! Mik is going to get the college experience of going to classes, viewing campus, reading a campus map, and touring St. Paul Highland.
This past weekend there were 2 baby calves born! One was early Friday afternoon to Jacob favorite heifer, Shasta, the heifer he took to the county fair. A beautiful bull calf was born to Shasta on the cold Friday night. The second calf was born to a cow named Montana, for she came from Montana state and has a distinct red/brownish color to her coat. This momma cow is very protective of her calf and we have not yet been able to find out the gender of this calf. :(
SUNSHINE!! When will we get it? I know!
This week promises to give us lots of sunshine until this weekend, then we will be getting lots of warm weather to melt the snow.
