The Calves had chickenpox

So we had friends over and the Sunday morning Anika says to me: Look mommy I got blisters
What blisters.So I have a look and my first thought was" Did you try and smoke?
It looked like a cigarette burn.Upon closer inspection we discovered that it is chickenpox.

So she couldn't go to school for two weeks.Two weeks of hell.Besides the fact that she couldn't stop scratching she could not leave her brothers alone.They were fighting constantly.
Eventually she could go back to school just to discover that the twins now had it.Werner had it bad but Johan had it three times as bad.

Here is some pics of the speckled twins when it just started showing.

Super cow turned 50

Yes,my mom turned 50 this year.She flew to Pretoria from Port Elizabeth and we got some of the family together and had a super time.We got to spend a weak with her as she had to get back because the father bull had to get a back operation and she needed to be there.

All went well with the back operation and dad is recovering nicely.He is however irritating the mother to our ears dismay as we have to hear all about it.HAHA
