Time To Go Bye Bye

You will never guess where I just came from! I'll give you a hint...it has something to do with cows.  

If you guessed putting cows back in, you are a winner! 

I just happened to get up off the couch on this lazy Sunday to go put some dishes away.  I looked out the kitchen window and saw four cows walking around on our freshly planted lawn! GRR!!  I yelled at Logan, changed clothes, and was out the door to jump on a 4-wheeler.

Turns out, the ENTIRE South lot was out roaming about the yard.  We quickly managed to get all of the cows and calves back in in a matter of about 20-25 minutes.  Pretty good timing, huh?!  We chained the gates tight and drove back up to the house.

We then spent the next 10 minutes FIXING OUR LAWN!! We had many large footprints to rake over and smooth out.  Of course, we had just started to see some grass pop up and the dang cows had to come mess it up!  It is time for them to go to pasture!

Farm Girl Tip #136: Watch out for cows in your yard! When they are ready to go to pasture and eat some green grass, they will let you know! AKA--they will break out of their lot and walk around your yard to find grass! Cows.................
