He got my goat.....




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 church this morning. April found these little sundresses at Walmart and bought one for Ellie too!

    Wow! even baby goats are cute. I was wondering, why are babies of all species so cute and wonderful? And why do the older folks of all species lose so much of their cute charm? Hmmm... Anyways, I think Livey and Ellie will stay pretty cute. Shilah, as cute as ever...

I’m Back!

 I’ve been thinking the last few weeks of this poor forsaken blog, so I looked up the other day and it was actually 2012 that I quit. A lot of water has passed under the bridge since then and our family has grown and there’s been lots of changes and a wedding and a daughter-in-law and grandbaby coming and now we’re having another wedding In a few weeks! Wow , you never know what will happen in six more years! I thought about trying to catch up over our lives the last few years, but most of you already know What all we’ve been up to so I’m not gonna try! I’m just going to start where we are now! This is going to be a year to remember for sure! 2018, Who would’ve thought, that we would be facing cancer, looking forward to being grandparents, having a 19-year-old daughter getting married, another daughter dating!  It’s almost mind-boggling, but I am reminded  that when I started this blog and I was a busy younger mother with six little kids, that I literally took one day...

The pros of owning a bulk food store!

  ...trying out a Himalayan Pink Salt block from a customer! "would I carry this, please"? (Do I crush it or just pass it around the table?) :) .....i take all the produce home that get bumped and briused. Onions get chopped and frozen, which I love having on hand ,just don't like too many at a time! ....grabbing baking stuff off the shelves,including many items I normally wouldn't get, like mini m&m bits! Funny tho', my spices containers are emptier than ever, I forget to pick them up 'cause I don't have a grocery list anymore! ....farm fresh eggs from local farmers! ....i get to test out the latest kitchen gadgets,including the broken stuff! ....meat and cheese ends from the deli, they make wonderful snacks when having  friends over!

Pictures Of Summer 2012, now That Its History. . .

I am so far behind, I'm not even gonna try to catch up on our summer! Did we even HAVE summer??? Me thinks the years are flying by too fast! We had a relaxing Sunday afternoon today, Norvs mom and dad came up for lunch and Jay and April and the girls. . . Its been almost six weeks since hip surgery for my MIL, she's about ready to get rid of her walker! That'll be a wonderful sight to see her walk without it. Its been getting colder every night and raining for the past few days, knocking all those beautiful yellow leaves of of my maples in the front yard!  We've started raking them into huge piles. But its wasted effort till they are all off. The snow is covering the mountain tops now so one of these days its gonna get us! :) We celebrated our 18 th anniversary the 8th of October! Norv had to fly to Seattle that weekend and Julianna had her 8th birthday, so we are gonna do a gateway later. This time of the year is always a little hard to get nice wea...
