Thanks Rhonda for keeping all of us in the loop on what's happening at our favorite Michigan dairy farm!!

Slip a 2 litre plastic cola bottle over your snow push stick and ductape it down or put a screw in to bottle on to push stick...then you won't ram push stick through the plastic roof

The whole family is making bread every day,your farm(money)..Coffee can bread tastes very good too..Use a large size coffee ☕️ can and put your regular dough in it and cook it in the oven..😊😊😊

Hello Ronda! Thank you so much for sharing a little part of you with all of us! We love your calming presentation! The bread looked ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Wish we could smell it through the screen! Thank you for all you do through the thick and thin! Blessings from your fellow YouTubing, farming friends from Kansas!

Great last video, love watching the babies bouncing around in their pens. Keep up the good work and God bless your family.

I think Rhonda would rather be a cat, stay cozy and snug by the fire. But she goes on out and gets things done, and probably appreciates that nice warm stove when she gets back in at the end of the day. And then she fixes her family a great meal. She is a rockstar with a great band! 😂👍👍

GOD bless this Family...

That little fan was made in Canada... Ecofan - the original heat powered stove fan - was developed in the Bruce Peninsula, an area in Ontario, Canada. Canadians understand a cold winter, but the Bruce Peninsula can be particularly brutal. As such, a wood stove can make all the difference on those days when the cold sinks into your bones and you just can’t get rid of the chill. Getting the heat from a wood stove to circulate faster, and stretching the life of your wood pile make the Ecofan an invaluable addition in living your best winter life.

We had a Ski Whiz when I was teenager in 1970

It's still coming down on the heavy and snowy almost Midwest and mideast and north of the blizzard 🥶

Great stuff Ronda, have a safe week👍🙏🙂

This good life and good living. I love people like this & it reminds of the older generation and us from the far south.

You are the best wife and farmer wife I know of

Great video. Enjoy your home cooked meal. Thanks

Good morning 🎉🎉❤

We just got through a blizzard across Iowa. With temperatures in negative numbers, lots of Iowans are staying inside. We don't expect high temperatures in the 20s until midweek next week. Sure good to have AWD/all wheel drive on both of our Toyotas.

I remember baking 5 loaves bread at a time. We were 4 brothers and a best friend when the bread came out of the oven in minutes we'd be into the 2nd loaf. Can almost taste the bread with melted butter as i type this. Hope all are having an awesome new year

Good morning great to see them out enjoying there toys Here at 40 below just to cool for skidooing lol Stay safe Stay warm

that log burner looks very nice, love to have one nice video as well.like the snow ski.

that one cow that is backed into the stall is the lookout for the rest. the roast and bread with homemade butter makes me hungry. when momma made whole wheat loaves, she expected the first one would be eaten before it cooled. so good with a glass of farm fresh milk. we would separate the cream off and either make butter or sell it. ❤

I don’t know if you folks tire of my comments. I hope it helps the channel. It’s nice to see how you are getting along week by week. We have heifers that lay backwards too, they don’t see freestalls until after they calve the first time. Most of them figure it out though and as they grow, they usually prefer to lay the right way. Cold here today and this week in southern Ontario. I think we often have similar temps and snow fall.

Hi Rhonda. I hope the snow gets little inside the stable otherwise it could be a problem. Greetings from Italy

The bread looks fantastic. Another excellent video. Grew up in Wisconsin on a dairy farm and worked in the dairy industry all over the country. I love to see the working dairy farm videos. We received over 24” of snow from the most recent storm, now bitterly cold. Winter is grand!

Your bread sure looks like traditional Finnish coffee bread (pullaa). Mom made regular whole wheat dinner bread and at least 2 kinds of rye bread.

Beautiful bread! Glad to see the guys got some time to play in the snow. Back in the early 90's I learned to take a frozen pork roast, put it in the crock pot, cover with picante sauce and just let it go all day. Great pulled and served on noodles or rice. Minus 6 this morning in MO, I think we'll hit 40 by Thursday. Have a blessed week, stay safe, warm, and dry (if possible).

Looks pretty harsh out there, we had -7 this morning and a lot less snow, maybe and inch or so.

Your bread looks delicious, I'd bet y'all enjoyed that, I know I would, love breads. Stay warm enjoy your day and hope you have a good week.

Hope your staying warm. At least you have gotten some snow. Something I haven't scene much of the last 2 years. The last 2 storms this week all we got was a lot of wind and tons of rain. Five and a half inches in a week is unheard of in this area.

Beautiful coverage. Maybe you could install some music to help relax the cattle or to help pass the time by. Or install some tv’s so that the mothers can watch the Days of Our Lives while waiting on their deliveries. 😂 Seriously, you all be safe during this season.

Going to be below zero at night all week. Not my favorite weather. I need your fireplace 😅

Its a different view - all covered in snow. The animals are fine inside.

Holding our breath (hole in the cover). Could you drill a hole in a softball and attach to the stick?

We made your recipe for stew from a few years back. It is still a favorite. Imagine having stew when it was -35° C outside last evening. We live in Calgary, Alberta. . . . so coming home from church we must be having a warming trend. The dash was reading -29° C. 😂

Good Morning Ronda, The fire looks so invitingly comfy do you get the aroma of the wood burning? I see you got snow and more falling As i get older and older i have come to realize i don’t enjoy the snow when i was younger 😢 but i know what you mean by being on a Dairy Farm you have to get out to feed the Moo Moo Mamas and the babies, we had snow but the rain we got washed it away, I’m glad Seth drove Mackenzie to work so that she wouldn’t have to take a chance on driving herself and have something happen while on the road But after all your chores are done you can get back into the kitchen where it’s warm and do some baking I too wish i could get the aroma of your baked goods and the fire in the wood-stove well, be safe and stay warm❤😊

Hi Ronda, Great Video. Quite a roaring fire you have going. I'm about 120 miles East of you and it snowed 1/2 ft of heavy wet snow very quickly just at dark Friday. It bent the shrubs and trees right over. I was looking out the window at Lightening and hearing Thunder-Snow, (very rare) when suddenly the Lightening really got much brighter: Because my house went dark: Our electricity turnt off. So I had to find my way out into the garage to set up the generator, thank goodness for LED lights on cell phones. I don't have to look for a flashlight in the dark anymore. And for the next 24hrs it was generator time. Today, Sunday, it's sunny and very bright out there, but it's only 8°F/ -13.3°C and windy. We're supposed to be cool and windy for the next week, so it's Winter. Time for "MINT" Hot Chocolate Milk and Cake Donuts while warming up by the wood stove. Thank you for inviting us into your farm life, it's always interesting to see what it's like in the day-to-day life at Acres of Clay dairy farm. It's always a treat, an American treasure to see you and your family. Take care & we'll look for you again. ben/ over in Hartland, Mi.

Now you know what the greenhouse effect is. It means the temperature inside the greenhouse is much higher than you expect. It is similar to our atmosphere. Kevin is using his head as he encourages the snow to slide off.

Now I have to go out and get some Brioche. Is that what you were going for? I could almost taste it. Thanks Ronda

*Meteorologists need to do a much better job of doing their jobs.* They're the only profession that I know that can be wrong more times than they're right and still keep their jobs and make six figures a year. They need to be careful because more an more people aren't paying attention to them and that can be very dangerous when things actually get rough. They keep saying everything is a "Hundred year storm, blizzard, tornado and hurricane" and it's really not. It's all part of their Global Climate Emergency. They're trying to convince people that the world is in danger of being unlivable if we don't make drastic changes in America and give the W.H.O. hundreds of Billion of dollars every year to "fix it" with the GangreneNew Deal. *It's ridiculous and criminal. * Sorry for ranting. *Hope y'all have a safe and warm winter season.*
