Why I created this blog...

"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. "

We're moving!!!

I can't believe it. We're moving again. *WHEEW* Fortunately it's only 3 minutes (if that) from the house we're in now. This move should be pretty easy *knock on wood* We are SO blessed and know that this is where we are supposed to be. The house is GORGEOUS! BEAUTIFUL!! Ahhhh, I'm SO excited. It's bigger and on and acre more property too. Perfect for all these animals we keep accumulating Hahaha. The neighbors are great and we'll get to stay in this area that we have just fallen in love with.
Here are some pictures for you all...




I'll get more pictures to share of the inside later. I can't wait to get in there and decorate! Anyway, I just wanted to share our excitement. I better get packing. I've only got THREE weeks left!!! :D

A visit with Great Grandpa B & Grandma P :)

We were able to take the kids to see their Great Grandpa this past week. We had such a nice visit with them and miss them so much already. Sassy and Stinkbug definitely kept Great Grandpa on his toes. ;) We're hoping to get back out there VERY soon.

They have SUCH a beautiful garden. Grandma P. takes such good care of it. I wish I had her talent for keeping things alive. I can't even get my strawberry plant to grow, let alone ALL of the GORGEOUS flowers and plants she has. It was hard not to stay out there and take pictures all day ;)

Here's some pictures from our visit...

It's a No Go....

Sorry everyone. The rooster video isn't going to happen. I can't get it to work right.

I'm sorry.

I'll keep trying though....

I just called...to say....I love you.....



So I recieved this from Kelli over at "Gohn Crazy" and it's my turn to pass it on. Thank you Kelli, I love you too! I know that even though there are times when we get really busy, you are still always there for me. And I treasure our friendship.

Now, to pass this on...
Jen- You are awesome. Since the time we met, you have been a great friend to me. You stick by me and support me through all my craziness and are always there to make me laugh. You are always there to help me out with anything. I couldn't ask for a better addition to my family than you *wink*

Still workin on it...

The video's are coming. I could only get them from my cell phone camera and it's proving to be very difficult to get them converted to the right format and uploaded to a hosting site. I've got 1 of 3 uploaded and it's upside down??? Don't know how that happened....

Anyway, the rooster is gone now, and besides Sassy having a broken heart over it, things are much calmer around here. It made my heart hurt a bit when we watched them put the rooster in their coop at the feed store. Even though he's a jerk now, he was one of our babies that we hatched from eggs, so it was hard. BUT, my kids come first and had it been one of them he went after, it wouldn't have only been bruised legs and ego's. He was able to fly up and kick as high as the kids faces are. Scary.

What was nice though is after we got back home from dropping him off , I was able to go in the coop and get the stockpile of eggs that I was too afraid to get out before. And this guy wasn't in there to beat the crap outta me.



I wonder if he's going to end up being dinner??

I hope not. :(

Alright well, I'll keep working on the videos. Hopefully I can figure it all out.
