Our new babies

 

A friend gave us these 8 month old colts, one is a filly and the other is a going to be a gelding. 

They were born one day apart.  We are still working on names.

Homemade butter

The girls skim the cream off of the milk from our Holstein milk cow and then take turns shaking

 

The finished product... of course after you taste it you'd throw sticks at store bought.
