Thou shalt not covet (but we kind of do…)
Mr. Manning delivered two round bales for Bessie, Beef, and the Terrible Twosome yesterday.

Now he let's me run his back over the gate while he gets that treat. Look at those pretty eyes. She loves to have her chin scratched... ...and she loves … Continue reading Love is in the air

The welcome wagon…

The wait is over!!!
The Terrible Twosome and Bessie got excited when Ron pulled up. He usually brings them fresh hay. Bessie waited so patiently. See how sweet she's being? Then she realized that wasn't hay in that trailer! She was a little worried. ..but I guess maybe all brides are when meeting the arranged marriage husband for the … Continue reading The wait is over!!!
