Introducing....

When we first closed on our house in March 2013, I called this section behind the backyard proper the "pasture."  

I was dreaming.

March 2013

It looked nothing like a pasture.

The six of us took down the (falling down anyway) wooden picket fence.

And in February 2014, we had the "pasture" fenced in:

And then in April 2014, my dad drove down on his tractor and tilled up the pasture...

 ...and Jas planted grass seed:





And after a few weeks, it looked like the grass seed wasn't going to take...but then it did!


And on Saturday morning, our pasture looked like this:

A.M., 10/11/14

And then on Saturday evening, our pasture looked like this:

P.M. 10/11/14

Don't see anything different?

Look reeeeeal close back in the left-hand corner...

 AHHHHHH!


There are cows in that pasture!









At times I thought this was just never going to happen.

But here they are....



Meet our two Jerseys....T-Bone, and his mama, Chelsea.

I took this through a square in the fence....they weren't letting us get that close at the time.

More to come about our cow adventures soon.....but I'll sign off with these "milky" pictures...
