o8.26.o6....Down on the farm

Aunt Mary and Barb got here yesterday and we went to the River last night for dinner.
Today we went to another farm down the road...one of the 9 dairy farms at Fair Oaks dairy.
The place is enormous, fanscinating and a little disturbing all rolled into one. It's like a milk factory...and the cows are the main workers. That's 3000 cows and that's just at the one dairy...take that x 9 farms and that's a lot of bossie lous.

I can't believe I left Bobble at home. There were photo opps everwhere.
But I can make up for it because after going to the State Fair, Sister Susie brought home yet another addition to the Bobble family...Bobble cow. Pretty soon we'll have our own farm.
Saturday night we went to Matt and Chari's for Conner's Birthday Party. He is 5!
Got a report on Dad from Dave, who checked in on him today. Dave says Dad is the miracle man. He came out of his room for all three meals, was joking around, remembered that Aunt Mary and Barb were here and remembered that he was having a birthday party!

Big day tomorrow!

Here's Conner's Birthday present from Great Aunt Nancy...The Conner Bobblehead:


Directions to here: Rise and shine on the farm, remember my mom everytime I see her sister's face, watch the cows on their merry-go-round milker and eat John Deere Tractor cake
