We See Red

It's been a little bit since this blog has been posted on. We are going to try and work on that...it's almost time to start packing the corn in as harvest season is closing in on us.

The picture below, I thought, was kind of humorous. All 4 of the guys have Ford Pick-ups and all 4 of them are red. Shown here is Clinton's, Lincoln's and Neal's. Grant rides in with Neal so his is missing from the photo.


That's all for now. We'll try and keep this more up-to-date. Life has a funny way of getting in the way of blogging. :)

Driving Truck

Long story but there was a beard growing contest at our church and when it came time to shave off the beard Clinton thought it would be funny to try to make him look like a grungy semi truck driver. So here he is.
This is the dairys new semi. They bought it just a few months back a long with an end dump. Hauling their own commodities is a new thing for the dairy and Clinton loves the drive.

Come 'n' Knock on our Door...

We recieved a call letting us know we had someone at door :).... Somehow and for some reason our front steps looked like a good place to set up for a rest. This little bull calf, no more than a week old wondered into our yard and walked up our steps and laid down. I thought it was funny so I took a picture. I bet not one city person gets such thrills at this. :) He is pretty cute too bad we don't keep the boys.

It's starting to get nice out.....

....and then the snow hits. However, last Friday, before our last snow storm (hopefully) of this season, Grant and Luke got some B-ball in after breakfast.





They work hard...they really do. :)

Another Birthday at the Farm

3-21-08

Grant celebrated his birthday last Friday, 3-14. He got a candle in his pancakes that morning...also lit by a torch - you know, White Rock Dairy style. (notice the butter warmer on the table...)

Birthdays At The Farm...

The farm's 'boss' turned another year older on March 6th so we celebrated at lunch that day instead of getting together that evening because of some scheduling 'conflicts' (Neal had a church council meeting)

Happy Birthday, Chris!

1 Dad, 1 Mom, 3 Sons, 3 Wives and 4 Grand-daughters....WOW! (Luke was at school)
4 Dudley's pizza's, 1 Home-made cake and presents all around the office conference table = a farm birthday.

This is how we light candles out here.....nothing better than a torch. We only lit one candle...we didn't want to wear out the torch.

Opening her brand new roasting pan! A very much needed kitchen item. Good thinkin' Bonnie!

Ashlyn helping grandma open her new set of dishes...another much needed item to go in her new kitchen!

Lunch Break

We are a family dairy that's for sure. During a hard days work, they come in to eat breakfast and lunch. Here is a picture of two brothers and their two daughters... Just some quality bonding time with the little ones in between work. (Clinton and Sophie are on the left and Grant and Josie are on the right.)

On A Thursday...

Thursdays...garbage & recycling days

This is the "perfectly spreadable" butter in the butter warmer from Le Sueur Cheese.

We've stepped up security at White Rock Dairy....

Yes...even cows need to eat.

Just another day...

Clinton & Lincoln

Clinton...again.

First 'Official' Post

Okay, so since we haven't done anything with this yet, I figured I would post a few photos. These photos were actually taken in Sept. 2006 by Ag Partners. We made it in their 2007 Calendar. We were their month of September.

The start of something....different!

Yeah...don't ask. This is the start of a blog for White Rock Dairy...the dairy farm we all work on. Have fun reading! (I think)
