Happy Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite holidays. This year, however, things have been a little different. Every single one of our employees felt that they needed Thanksgiving off this year. So who does that leave to do all the work? That leaves Craig to do all the work. He worked Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoon. I barely saw him. Friday morning Brigham and Ellie woke up at 2:30 in the morning to go milk the cows while Craig chores. They got done at 9 and came in and showered and ate and slept a couple hours. Then they were right back out in the barn to do the afternoon milking. They were good little workers.
It's been quite the holiday weekend. We managed to eat dinner together on Thanksgiving and Saturday night we watched a movie together. That, except for church yesterday, was pretty much the only things we did other than work, work, work.
Sometimes it's not so much fun to own a dairy farm.
