It's Our Year

It's a new year, full of possibilities and opportunities 

to make life better for myself and  those around me.

As stated on Facebook,

From down on the dairy farm,

Happy New Year!

                                     

                                                           

Christmas Blessings

Merry Christmas!

Even though we will be doing our usual everyday chores of 

feeding, milking and caring for our dairy cows and calves, 

we always find time to celebrate together as a family.

From down on the dairy farm,

we wish you joy within your home,

love within your hearts

and happiness that all comes through 

the greatest gift that was given to us...Jesus.

Christmas Blessings!

Dairy Farmer's Thankful Thursday

                                       There's no doubt, down on the dairy farm, we are
                                                               Undeniably Dairy!
                                     This new logo is supported with our Dairy Check-off
                                      dollars to help us promote dairy through out the year.
             

When the farmer said he would like to have one of these projectors 

that displayed the Undeniably Dairy logo, I sprang into action, almost like

Dancer and Prancer, to order it as a Christmas gift.

It only made sense to give the gift early so it could be enjoyed.

Getting a good picture has been a little difficult but

projected on the old hay barn on Anglin Road,

it's an Undeniably Dairy awesome sight!

It's not just a logo for us, it's the life we live and love 

everyday to make sure you have cream for your coffee, 

milk on your cereal, cheese on your pizza or 

yogurt in your morning smoothie.

I'm thankful to be a dairy farmer!

                                             

Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

December is full of celebrations!

I'm thankful for the happiness new life brings, 

for watching the expression of a child's first site of 

Santa riding in the community Christmas parade,

and enjoying  our dairy traditions 

                                         
                                                               down on the dairy farm.

Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

Last week Benton County Farm Bureau Women's Leadership Committee

received the title of most 

Outstanding Women's Committee for 2018

at the Arkansas Farm Bureau Annual Convention in Hot Springs.

 Chairwoman Brenda Patton  organized our committee,

diligently reported every activity, and used her creativity to bring us 

new ideas and ways to promote,educate and inform children and adults about

 agriculture throughout Benton County.

I'm thankful for Brenda's leadership 

and 

for the years of service and friendship I have enjoyed 

with this outstanding group of women.

Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

Thanksgiving has come and gone but

it has left a great appreciation for all the blessings 

we enjoy on the ordinary days down on the dairy farm.

Enthusiasm for eating is obvious at the feed wagon

or the family table!

I'm thankful for the crop growing season and harvest 

of the crops  that has produced 

the silage and hay that our dairy cows are enjoying each day.

Dairy Dream

Then

(November 24,1984)

and now

we're still livin' the dairy dream today

and 

celebrating thirty four years of life together down on the dairy farm.

                 
                                          I now know that the pair of pliers and pocket knife
                                            Ryan gave me on our wedding day was no joke!
