GOD’S PERFECT GIFT (offered free to you, no matter what, and can never be earned)
REJOICE, for a Saviour is born! Once again it is time to celebrate Christmas, the simple birth of God’s one-and-only Son. While many focus on Christmas trees, snowmen, reindeer, sleigh rides, wreaths, egg nog, Christmas cookies, and driving around seeing Christmas lights. As a boy, I thought Christmas was when I got lots of stuff from my poor dairy farmer dad and mom – that soon ended and was gone. Christmas is the Lord Jesus Christ’s birthday, nothing more or less. The tradition of gift giving started in the late 1800’s. 2,000 years ago the wisemen brought gifts to baby Jesus. Some families give no gifts but good feast and enjoy others’ company to not distract from the significance of birth of Jesus, King of Kings. And 33 years later on Good Friday and Easter, He fulfilled His purpose. God the Father’s gift of sacrifice for all mankind’s sin. Got Jesus?

Two are VG88 full sisters to Luck-E Dr Antidote RC EX90 54H902
“Udder Comfort™ does an awesome job softening udders and is gentle to skin. Results set it apart from everything else. For silky udders that are ready fast, we use Udder Comfort on every fresh cow 2x/day for a week after calving. We also apply it prefresh for first-calf heifers, and get it between the leg and the udder to prevent irritation,” says Joe Engel, Luck-E Holsteins, Hampshire, Ill. The Engels have bred over 400 EX cows, including impact cows Asia, Atlanta, Kandie-Red, and a string of impact sires, including Red and Polled. Joe and Matt and parents Dennis and Beth milk 185 Holsteins. They focus on balanced cows from consistent families, wide from muzzle to pins, efficient and long-lasting in a freestall setup where good udders and high components rule.
“We like to be proactive. It’s good for cows and milk quality. Since Udder Comfort came out, it’s the only one we use. We want fresh, crisp, perfect udders by 10 days to 3 weeks fresh. Over and over, Udder Comfort delivers. It gets udders spot-on, all the way ready, fast.” https://wp.me/pb1wH7-e6
Quality Udders Make Quality Milk
