August was a hodge-podge of a month, and I know why my social media feeds are full of people declaring it “Augtober” … Maybe it’s the light changing, or kids and teachers going back to school, or Fall books starting to show up, but August is truly a transition month. We’re still in the thick of Summer heat, but that heat has also changed. Honestly, the humidity is the worst offender: the sun has already started backing off from its harshest angle. It was a month that felt both fast and slow, with good and hard moments. We said a very unexpected goodbye to the bestest kitty-boy River, but I was able to get one last marathon cuddle session before. The cows came back to our side, with 6 adorable and curious babies. There were amazing eats, and a lot of reading {that post coming soon!}. It has been a wild, hot Summer and while I have savored the moments as they come, I am ready for these ‘Ber months. Here’s a peek at August …
I was getting shavings for the chicken box, and felt eyes on me.
but the P ladies have decided they like the H box. Sometimes.
These sunflowers are so, so good.
I do have some chicken pictures from August as well, but I’m going to make a chicken update later this month. The H class ladies have developed even more personality, and it’s so fun.
What was your best moment of August?
Are you ready for the ‘Ber months?
Rebecca, what beautiful photos! I especially love the cattle, of course, and yes, they are SO curious! I am definitely ready for the “ber” months. They’re my favorites!

Thank you! And I thought you’d enjoy seeing “our” baby cows 🙂 The ‘Ber months are my favorite too: bring on Fall! ❤

Im so sorry to hear about River, hope you’re doing okay ❤️❤️ all of the cow pictures are so sweet, especially the calves. It must get pretty distracting at times. Although it seems like maybe they watch you more than you watch them. Those flowers are lovely too 🥰 and the heat is strange. Its been humid but gloomy here today. Its kind of annoying as its the heat/humidity I want to go, not the sun 😂 I looks forward to your chicken update

Thank you ❤ There were a lot of tears, but I'm so glad I was able to give him so many cuddles at the end. He was the bestest boy, and not quite 13 so it was very unexpected.
The calves are SO cute and distracting, lol. And yes, they are always watching. As are the chickens. We joke that we are the cows' favorite Netflix series 😂😂😂
Fingers crossed the heat has broken for everyone and stays away!
