It's beginning to look a lot like...

SPRING! FINALLY. This is what it looks like:

I also made homemade onion strings from this recipe:

It's been over 24 hours, and the house still smells like onion strings. ...whoops! 

In other news, Louie expanded Wallace's pen this weekend, so now he has a lot more room to run around and a lot more grass to chomp on.

Daisy likes to watch him through the bay window:

Wallace

We have a new addition to our little farm: a one month-old calf that we named Wallace. Wallace is an orphan, and needs someone to bottle feed him twice a day. He's been sleeping inside of our barn, and ventured outside for the first time this afternoon!

Daisy sees Wallace for the first time:

He's really pretty cute.

Daisy really wanted to get a closer look. Wallace wasn't sure what to make of her!

I think winter has finally given up its stronghold on the state of Nebraska. It sure is nice to see green grass! :)
