Life...One Day @ a Time...

Since last November we've had two baby goats born to "Jennie" , a pygmy we got from Nelson and Donna years ago. They have been roaming as they please around this land and now that my garden is in , the last thing I need are goats in there,so we decided we need to get rid of them 'cause we didn't have a pen big enough for three... So we are down to two goats now as of Thurs. night...a guy stopped by the store ,heard we had a goat to give away, so Norv took "Lucky" to a goat farm just north of here. This old couple has a hobby farm and Lucky joined about 20 + other goats there! Julianna is playing with the newest baby .....baby and mom roam the yard freely and last week I discovered some of the leaves on my plants were chewed off, so they are banned to their pen.. this little guy is more sociable than the other one was, he'll jump up on the kids backs, dancing around and just being cute! too bad they don't stay that way... ..took this at ch...

Yest. was our long ,awaited school picnic day ! Of course we always wish for a nice day because of track and field outside, but we suffered yesterday! It was so COLD and windy, but those kids were running around in bare feet like it was hot, just made me shiver looking at 'em. Jeff and Loretta make their yummy grilled chicken for supper and we had strawberry pie, so that part ended up being the best , in my opinion .... I like food , can you tell? Class of 2023..... -Dominic, Jared, Joseph,Julianna,Kari,Heather,Caleb and Anthony Brent in midair.... and made it! Cody on his way over....... Jocelyn is the winner! ....another successful high jump! The boys getting ready for the 25 yd. dash....

Well May 1st came and went ...nothing to brag about. It was a cold , rainy ,sun-shone- a - little - bit kind of day...I went out this afternoon and actually got some work done on my flowerbeds... got Cody to haul some dirt around and fill some new beds. Now that Cody got the four wheeler, jobs are fun again...of course everyone jumps at the sound of it starting up, Ellie is the worst! She thinks she owns it and everyone is to give her rides. She makes a beeline for it every time she's outside, climbs up as far as she can and yells... She is starting to imitate everybody and of course she gets the laughs she wants...'fraid this one will turn into a B-R-A-T... Norv went to an auction in St. Ignatius, MT. with Charles Schrock. An Amish guy was selling out his furniture business, so he got a few pieces he found for the store, hickory rockers, a hoosier cabinet, etc. They'll join the furniture corner that is Norv's baby, his touch in the store and they are ac...
