Moon Moos

We talk about the stars aligning just right, but it was the full moon
 that caught my eye rising directly  above  the milk barn. 


 The cows didn't seem impressed as they were leaving the barn after being
 milked for the second time today.   I'm sure they were anxious to get to  the
 feed barn for a snack and a drink of water before bedtime in the pasture.


                                       It was an end to an  ordinary day but a simple reminder
                                           of how extraordinary  God is if  we just look up!

Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

One of  the most popular spots at the Benton County  Fair  for the last twenty-five years is the Benton County Farm Bureau Petting Zoo. It's hard to believe that I have volunteered with this project for twenty of those years!

I'm thankful for the opportunity to provide a fun  connection to agriculture  for kids of all ages,


to see the smile on a first time cow milker,


to experience the love for baby chicks,


to hear the squeal of a baby pig,

and 

                                                       
                                                          to be a farmer in Benton County!
