I've heard that on the list of things that every person should do once in their life is milking a cow. Well, for Matt and I, that task is now checked!! We have a family in our ward to has a milking cow and they were kind enough to let us come over for FHE and teach us how to do it. It was fun despite the cramping of thumbs, dodging the cow going #1 and #2! and getting swatted by her tail in the face a few times. (We tried not to think about the fact that her tail was most likely coated with said #1's and 2's.) Now on Thursdays at 6am and 6pm, I am going to attempt to come every week to milk to the cow and I get to keep the milk!
Matt and I both got a chance to practice. Since we were just getting the hang of it, we didn't keep any of the milk. If you'll notice the stuff on the floor that looks a little chunky its because one of her udders has mastitis. OUCH!
