Two months since the last update? Here's whats been happening at the Brown's house.
I'd say the biggest event of the last few weeks happened yesterday as we were preparing to leave for church. I was just about to load the kids in the truck when I looked out the kitchen window to see about 30 calves casually strolling out of a "secured" gate into the great wide open and a 30 below zero windchill blizzard. I quickly threw on some warm clothes and headed out to cut them off and get them back into their yard. At the sight of me their casual stroll turned into a stampede up the county line. I was able to catch up to them in the truck about 1/2 mile up the road and turn them around. As I was driving them back home, Kristin was hustling to the gate to corrale them back into the yard. She arrived just in time to watch them sprint past the gate and go about 1/2 mile in the other direction. Fortunately Kristin called a neighbor to come and help and after about 45 mintutes we had them all back home. The last time we called this neighbor, it was to ask for his help moving a piano. I'm sure he's thrilled to have the Brown's in the neighborhood!
