Best Coworkers
Best Co-Workers Living and working on a farm is so rewarding. We all work hard with no days off. We have fun, and love helping others in the community, as well as supporting our family. The co-workers are cows, goats, chickens, angora rabbits, dogs, and cats. Everyone has their own job. Without them, the farm would not run as well. We look after each other.

Unexpected Event
Unexpected Event It feels as if it was yesterday. My boyfriend, at the time, and I went to lunch. He took me to meet his grandmother. We approached an intersection. My boyfriend thought it was a 4-way stop, but it was only a 2-way stop. I remember seeing a glare.

The Good Old Days
The Good Old Days I miss those summer nights. Our group changed over time. At night, we played capture the flag, hide in seek, or sardines in the dark. We spent the day at the pool. We went to Stewart’s Shop and The Pizza Shop. I remember one time we had a storm. It was me, my friends: Blake, Heather. We ran through the storm to my house and spent the day there. We took Heather home because she was on the younger side. She got me in loads of trouble!

Its a Bull
It's a Bull When Rosie came to us we knew she was pregnant. Having a baby calf on our new farm sounded great. We got Rosie on Easter. She was so sweet. We knew she was due in May. Every day she would moo. So my husband and I decided to get her a friend. We got Maggie a Dexter cow and her baby Chestnut. Rosie was amazing with Chestnut. She treated it as her own. Rosie takes care of everybody, the goats, cows, and calf. So as time went on, May approached. We could see Rosie was huge. We were thinking about why she has not given birth yet. Two weeks later my husband and I headed to bed. We heard a moo. We looked at the camera. Couldn't see well but we saw something. We got our shoes on. Went out to the barn at midnight.

The Barn
The Barn Moving to a new area can be exciting but scary at the same time. It was always Jack and Jill's dream to own a farm. As soon as they started looking for land, they came upon a house that had a farmhouse and a bright, red barn. The farmhouse had been gutted for years. So they fixed that up.

Let's Party
Let's Party Everybody loves a party. While it's exciting it can be overwhelming too. The best way is to break it up into categories. First is of course food and drinks. Always have chips or veggies and dip. If it's a cookout you can keep it simple with hot dogs and hamburgers, also can spice it up with steak and chicken all on the grill. You should also have salad, pasta salad or potato salad. Drinks are easy. They include beer depending on age, water, soda, sports drinks, ice tea, and lemonade. It could also bring your beverage. If you want to have a potluck party, food is taken care of. If you have a party at a venue both food and drinks are taken care of. That's the next category: Location.

Out of place
I feel that I’m a nice person. Sometimes, too nice. It started at school. I never had many friends. I did have some best friends and my boyfriends’/husband's friends. There were times I felt they didn't like me, and they were just being nice, because of my boyfriend/husband.
