Spy Cows

We're driving down the road and Reid says, "Those are Mom's cows," as he points to a herd of cows in a pasture.  We often play this game. 

Cort says, "No, those are my cows."

Me: "Cort, maybe we can share the cows."

Cort: "Okay, but mine are spy cows."

Me:  "Mine are spy cows too.  My cow wears special spy glasses that lets him see far through the woods."

Cort: "My cow wears spy glasses too.  He can swim and jump over this car."

Reid, "WHAT?!?"

Cort: "Yeah, my cow wears a spy vest full of spy equipment.  He can swim and do karate moves.  My cow can jump over skyscrapers."

Reid:  "WHAT?!?"

(Insert giggles from Cort).

Me: "Wow, Cort.  Your cows are way cooler than mine."

Readers, seen any cool cows lately?

I like the bike course, they will need one for motorcycles before long, better have lots of hay ready.

Reid: [to Paul when they are alone]"Mom and Cort are crazy..."
Paul: "My cows ride bicycles!"
Reid: "NOOOOOOOOO!!"

Sally said...

Those are some nifty cows.

I've never seen a hay maze for bikes, that's pretty cool!

Tina Fariss Barbour said...

So cute! Our cows growing up were very mysterious. I wonder if they could do karate moves?

Ginny Hartzler said...

The hay maze picture is really cool! So is the car game you play. I bet that right now, his answer to everything is something about a spy! Yes, remember a previous post of mine about the Oreo cows? I bet the boys would snicker at them.

Karen Whittal said...

We definitely dont have these cows in South Africa, they say everything is bigger and better in America... confimed by your blog...lol

Spycow saves the day! I love the way you encourage those creative imaginations.

Sharon Wagner said...

Spy cows sounds like a great movie idea!

An Apel a Day said...

Both of your cows are way cooler than mine.

They are so cute on their bikes!

Gail Dixon said...

Those boys of yours always have me in stitches. Their imaginations are so cute and clever.

Linda said...

I've never seen spy cows... that I know of!

Michaele said...

Oh that photo has me grinning from ear to ear! I have had goats jump on my car - but not over - yet.

I haven't seen any cows recently. And I doubt that I'd be cowed by any of your spy cows. In fact, any one of them would make a good meal for a Bear. (I suppose I shouldn't have said that.)

Blessings and Bear hugs, Lisa. Somehow, though, I don't think the cows would want a Bear hug.

Michelle said...

What cute little guys on those bikes!

Busy Bee Suz said...

Your boys have the coolest cows ever. :) So funny!!!

Tweedles -- that's me said...

Hmmmm....now when I see cows, I'm going to wonder if they are spy cows. :)

I sent you an email in regards to the dmca and shutting down the hack blog. Watch for it. I will help you!
