Our cow that was due to have her calf on the 21st jumped the gun by about a week. That usually means there are twins. I don't have the pictures off my camera yet, but she had 2 cute little heifers that picked the names Sugar and Cookie. When I tried to call them Mistletoe and Holly they ignored me. When I said how about Merry and Joy one actually turned and walked away! I said how about Sugar and Cookie? Sugar gave me a moo and Cookie came running. Of course they picked the day that it was snowing and the wind chill was below zero to make their entrance into the world. They seem to be doing really well despite this moody weather. Yesterday it was 54 and raining. Today the wind chill was below 0 and it was snowing. I hear that Christmas day it's supposed to be 60 :( At least we had a white before Christmas LOL! I'll post some pictures as soon as I get them off my camera.

How exciting Heather! So ‘Sugar’ and ‘Cookie’ it is, that is so funny. We are having flip flop weather too. One morning it’s 22 degrees and high of 38 like three days ago, then today we are riding around with 65 degrees and our windows open. Looking forward to pictures of the twins!
