I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe New Year! The farm sure did! We relaxed for most of the day...eating a great breakfast, sleeping in (well till 9) and we were able to stay in our comfy clothes! But the cows on the other hand had a different celebration in mind....
Ma and Dad were sitting on the couch, enjoying their morning coffee when something moved outside the window. Dad looked out and said "the deer are out running around....OH NO! THE COWS ARE OUT!" Dad and Mom quickly ran outside and gathered all 5 of the lil' boogers back into the pasture. Come to find out, after bringing the horses into their stalls the night before, I forgot to lock the gate. (whoops!) Of course the cows took advantage of the opportunity. They had been everywhere! They traveled all around our property and were even brave enough to venture into the neighbors front yard! (sorry Hoppers!) Over the next week, we were still finding hoof prints in the snow!
I guess the lesson here is to ALWAYS check the gates before you call it a night!
....although, I'm still convinced that lil' miss Red knows how to open the gate.....
