Sam got a deer this weekend, yay!! It's a really nice 9 point buck. He has a big body, so we should get lots of meat. It'll be nice to stock up the freezer. Beef is so expensive, I love using the venison burger and roast. Sam and my dad are going to butcher him tonight. They went in on a meat saw (I don't know if that's what you call it), to cut a cow up this winter.
That's another story. My dad had two cows. We were going in on one of them, so we could have half a beef and Sam and my dad we going to butcher them both this winter. The cows got out during the night a couple weeks ago. My parents live on a highway. After a call to the state police the next day, they found out that one of them had been hit on the highway. These are big cows too. Later they found out it was a semi and he was able to drive off. Praise God! That probably would have killed someone in a car. The other cow wouldn't leave the dead cow's body (poor thing), so they put him in the neighbors barn. So we're not going to have as much meat, but praise God that no one was hurt.
Anyhoo...I tried and tried to put a picture of Sam's deer on here with no luck. I'll get one on soon at my mom's.
I did a cruel thing yesterday. I shaved my Lab Summer. She has been shedding worse than I can ever recall. As much as I love her, things have certainly changed since becoming a mom. Everything we own was covered in hair, despite my efforts to keep it clean. Sam didn't want me to shave her, being winter and all, so I told him it was either that, or she was becoming an outside dog. He opted for me to shave her. I did a quick job of it because I was cold and she looks awful! I should post a picture of the poor pup on here too.
Delight has gotten so vocal in the last several days. She's so loud! I wouldn't call it cooing anymore. It's more like yelling! I want to get a video of her on here. We'll see if I can pull it off.
I'll post pictures soon.
