SPRING FEVER

SPRING FEVER
We have enjoyed the nice weather and being able to spend so much time outside. Stetson has absolutely loved it. He wants to go outside from the minute he wakes up until bed time. He goes outside in the morning to feed the animals and run and play. We have been able to have dinners outside, go for walks when I get home, do yard work and absolutely loved the warm weather! I am so excited to be able to put our garden in and flowers and take care of the lawn.

Stetson's First Butterfly Band-Aid
The sound of silence is no longer always a good thing. It seems that whenever Stetson is really quiet he is in to something. This time he was pulling things off shelves and our big box tape dispenser dropped on his head. It looks worse than it really turned out to be, but he is a tough kid and recovered quickly!

Stetson's First Car Accident


THE RESULTS OF STETSON'S FIRST CAR ACCIDENT


Doug & Stetson loaded the back of the truck up with hay for the cows and drove it back to the corral to unload it. Stetson was able to put the truck in drive and make a sharp turn over our well head in the back field as Doug was unloading the hay. When Doug got to the truck, he was laughing!

New Additions to our Family

No, I'm not expecting, but our family has doubled in a week. Doug has always wanted cows and a little farm and he was able to buy two cows to get started for now. The black steer is named "Steaks" and the Red heifer is "Ol Red". He is still trying to convince me that they are part of my food storage when we butcher "Steaks" this fall and "Ol Red" will have a calf next year.


We also adopted Jeremy & Kelsie’s red lab "Toby" last week. Stetson and Doug have both really enjoyed having him around. He is a good dog for kids. He gives all the little kids rides and lets them play with him.
