Sigh. Moving day. We will be moving things out for a while but last night was my last night in the house. If I could tear down my house and build a bigger one I would & stay here forever but alas, there’s very little building space.

This is a picture from a few years ago (out my kitchen window) of Ruby, one of the 2 cows that normally give birth on my bog. I haven’t seen her since fall. She always liked to nurse her calves just outside my kitchen.

Edwina finally shows up with the twins.

I love our morning snuggles. Cas’s breath always smells like frosting.

Grrrr. My next door neighbor ONLY does construction during calving season.
