~Fall~

As the leaves fall and the snow begins I sit here knowing that I have not sat down and written anything in a while! So here is a short update on life in Autum land!
I have had the most awesome opportunity to move out of my parents house and into my "own" home! I am sharing the space with my cool friend Jes! If you don't know her you should!
We are slowly making our house into a home and I must say I am enjoying finding things that fit into our decor,although the sailboats are not our favorite but we can work with them!We live on the lake and have the most awesome view right out our back window! The sunsets are amazing!!
In June my car decided it had lived a long enough life and it was done working...So that brought on the need for me to look for a "new to me" vehicle!But as those months are my busy ones I had to learn how to drive standard in the mean time! I must say I only had a few close calls but I know am confident I can drive a standard if the need arises! So in September dad and I drove around and looked for the perfect small SUV for me to drive! I really wanted a ford escape,green, with a sun roof! But I was willing to just get the make.God is so awesome he gave me exactly want I wanted!! I am now(or as soon as I pay it off) the proud owner of a dark green, 03, ford escape with a sun roof!!!
Well for now thats all cause I am at work and I need to tend to the children!

Summer Time

It has arrived!

I have found that I forget to come here and write so here is a update on life around me!

At the end of March I came home so that I could fill in at work for the month of April...I have stayed here and continue to work.....It is so very interesting to see where God has taken me in the last year! For now I will remain at home and pray about where I am gonna go when September gets here!

Here on the farm we have had a very productive year! We have sold somewhere around 30 cows this year! Put up brand new fence all the way around our property, and now have two pigs to grow so that our freezer can be full again! In the fall we got rid of the chickens(much to Denvers happiness!)So now we buy our eggs from farmers that like chickens!!

Hay season went very smooth with lots of helpers and good weather we have gotten all of first in and are now waiting for second to grow!

The sad news is we have 0 calves this year! It is very upsetting for us cause that means a down year next year...no beef to sell or eat! Bad bull!

As for other life my nephew will be born in a week or so!!! This is super exciting for me!!! Ashley continues to work and work and who knows what ;)

In parent world....Dads jail is closing so we are praying he gets a job close by so we will not have to move! Other than that they are looking forward to camping for a couple of weeks in July!

Well Peace out all!

Autum

Time...

I am always amazed at how fast time gets away from me! It has been over a month since I took time to blog...Not for lack of subjects but lack of drive to actually put my words down.... Well since I left NY in January we have seen most of the west! Big baby blue pulled out on January 26th and did not pull back in till February 21st! We started our journey in Louisianan where some awesome people took us to New Orleans! I must say it was a great experience!We went to Indian for a lunch buffet and then we walk the streets of the french quarter! We got to sit at Cafe cabul and have a cup of coffee and what I would say was fried dough! Then we walked some more, stopped to watch a magician and got up close to what we thought was a guy dressed up and was just a tin man! It was a fun time had by all! As it got dark and we walked back to the bus you sure could feel the change in the people that come out!
After Louisiana we took off for Texas! Oh boy! It is a HUGE state! We were there for a week and got to experience warm and very cold weather!!! The first day it was 70 and nice,the next we woke to ice on the palm trees!! While we were there the sickness took hold(and is still holding strong) ...
So after hanging out there we took off for Arizona!! I must say it was nice and warm but there is nothing green out there! Unless you call cactus and nice kind of green! We stayed with family while there and picked up grandpa! It was a great week of relaxing and watching cousins play!
We ot to make some great memories and I had a blast watching the family got along! From there we took off down the highway (without MR) to Oklahoma! It was a adventurous trip! We got a ways down the road a look out to see the awning coming undone....So Grandpa pulled over and the guys got out to fix it..Well there was some very strong wind that day and it was pulling them off the ground..So I saw the predicament and got out of the bus to help hold it down ...Well it just would not roll back up! So Caleb went looking for just the right tool to hit it with when a strong wind came up and took Jared( who was on one side by himself) up off the ground! I yelled Caleb go help Jared,So he leaps into action(literally) and dives up to save Jared....when SNAP he brakes the pole that was holding one side out! So we all burst into action..Jared got a knife and climbs on the top of the bus and cuts the tarp off so the metal wont kill us! It was a memory that shall last a lifetime! We did end up leaving a $1000 piece to the awning on the side of the road cause we had no way to strap it safely to the bus!
Well I shall tell more of our travels soon
Love to you all!

Home...

is a wonderful place to be! I am so grateful to have a house and family to go home to! I have been here for almost a month and am getting ready to head back to my second family! It has been so much fun to work and visit with the people that are in my life...









I have had tons of fun with a lot of different friends...from holding a pickle above my nose for longer than Mark jr...to playing boxers or briefs with some awesome friends! Laughter has been abundant!

I am looking forward to being back with the Lindseys! But I am sure I will miss all my people very much!
As for when I will be back again...looks like the end of March beginning of April! I shall come back to work and really am looking forward to being with my kids again!
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are enjoying a New year!
Love you all <3
