CHRISTMAS COWS

I watched how much work this card was for Keith to create, and all I can say is, “Bravo, Sir!”

“Have a Dairy Christmas and a Happy Moo Year.” I love this slogan. It was Keith’s idea and it still makes me laugh.

I think he did an exceptional job with our faces, and our cow outfits were modeled after our daughter Mollie’s Halloween cow costume. Keith’s is especially disturbing.

The metal milk cans were inspired by the rusty one I have in the basement and drag outside in autumn. The bottle in my hand is the one that used to be our coin jar. (Does anyone still use money)? I also love the milk in the wine glasses.

The struggles over getting people’s names where it says “The Dairy-air” was monumental, but we prevailed.

The cheese castle was requested by The Rat, and Keith didn’t have the heart to say no because it’s Christmas.
