Nature Walk

admin | February 23, 2010

This weekend was so beautiful! 63 degrees and sunny, it was a taste of spring that we thought would never come. Hard to believe that the low tomorrow is supposed to be 19 degrees. Yikes. I was happy the warm weather was on the weekend so that Quinn could enjoy it [...]

Snow Man!

admin | January 31, 2010

Well, the snow yesterday was too dry but as it began to melt a little today we were able to make it stick better to make a snowman.
This was the boys’ first snowman and the first snowman on the farm.
You know, it is not every snowman who can pull off ears and a sombrero.
Y’all [...]

Winter Wonderland

We got that winter storm that was on the news but not as bad as we could have. We got about 4″ here in Robertson County. The snow started falling around 10 am Friday morning.
The fresh fallen snow is so beautiful and peaceful. We didn’t have anything scheduled to do on [...]

Man Stuff

It was nice out on Saturday so the boys helped their dad chop wood and then they were rewarded with a BB gun shooting and education session.
They were so excited to get a chance to shoot. The gun came with some BB’s already in it and that was fortunate because we couldn’t find the [...]

New Glasses

It is a snowy day here and while snow isn’t a rare occurrence, snow that lasts 3 days is! It started snowing around 7:30 am on Thursday. We have less than an inch on the ground but it is still snowing after three days. My dogs that were scheduled for [...]

It started to snow here on Thursday. Oh the excitement for playing in the snow! Not enough for a decent snowman maybe, but the snowballs are fun!
So much fun but so, so cold!

Christmas ‘09

admin | January 1, 2010

I have been lacking in the time and motivation department for posting lately. I apologize and will try to be more on track in the new year. We spent Christmas in Florida with my parents. It was less rushed and more relaxed this year. We spent time together and celebrated the [...]

The Plane Truth

admin | December 18, 2009

Well, Grammy took the boys to play practice and she said “Well, it’s going to be a good show”. I was relieved for a moment because I thought the practice went well. I said “Good, so the practice went well?” her response was “Nope”. Makes me laugh now. The play [...]
