(Yes. It really was -24 earlier this week.)
Even your hair gets frosty when you are outside.
I think Daisy might have been saying "I'm done! Can we please go in now!!"
Shelby, on the other hand, doesn't know anything about the cold. He's got 3 heat lamps to keep him at juuuussst the right temperature.
Kitty, too, says "Cold? What cold weather?"
The laying hens and the rooster are quite comfortable too with their heat lamp and heated waterer. You just give them food and fresh water and ta da, you get wonderful brown eggs.
And here are the pigs sleeping like the pork sausages they really are. But when they see you coming, you have their full attention. Food, water and a bit of dried corn on the cob will have them running.
Let me introduce you...
This is Scarlett.
And this is Charlotte.
And why was I out at the farm doing chores for 3rd DS and DDIL, you might ask? Well, it's because they were away for a few days adding a human baby to the mix of all the other critters at the farm.
DH and I are now Granpa and Gramma to a sweet little boy named Collin Jarvis. He was 6 lb. 8 oz and 20" long when he was born. He has dark brown hair and very dark blue eyes. He's adorable I tell you and he has absolutely stolen our hearts!
