April Happenings

Welcome back, friends and random viewers! A very full April, 2018 is in the books, and it began with...LAMBS!

 Caution: lamb overload ahead!!!
This is an all-time favorite! Isaiah had a captive audience.
Katherine was just happy to have a farm animal she could carry!
Got to see this one being born!
This was our first time having to assist a mother in labor! Baby and mom are fine.;)




They're not lambs, but Izzy's first batch of bunnies were born!
Look who's walking!
 A wonderful visit with Mrs. Browning

 Grandpa and Nana stopped in for a visit!!! 

Fun new hats and socks from Colorado!!!
Norah baked what she always does...cookies;)
Animal show and tell around the farm
For Nana and Grandpa, it was love at first sight meeting our bottle lamb, Buddy.
Next Day: We are at Smallin Civil War cave for a tour!
Enjoying an Osage song
"Rule number one, always listen to John. Rule number two, stay on the path. Rule number three...he who has gas, must travel at the back of the pack (Just Kidding!)."

Hey cute little fella

 Isaiah's still trying to figure out where he is
Gazing at fossilized creatures on the ceiling
 A very fun experience!
 Next Day: at Silver Dollar City!!!
Grandpa and Nana
The Festival of Wonder



I think Grandpa enjoyed the Giant Barn Swing!
Man, this roller coaster is awesome!
Maddy and Ashley... what troublemakers!
Going for a train ride. Maddy, you look so thrilled!
Train robbers being lectured by an intimidating woman with a gun!
Isaiah, the cheesiest photo-bomber

Her smile makes me smile!
Three generations
What a fun day!
Spending quality time with grandpa

Modeling his onesie  he got from grandparents
Yup, she's in love!
Grandpa's look when Nana says she wants to bring Buddy home:)
Ashley made these yummy peanut-butter pies for Grandpa and Nana before they left.
 Storm season is back!

We skip ahead to a get-together with friends!
Hi Kaitlyn! Brrr, this is sure cold for April!
Kalea explaining something to Izzy.
When you're caught red handed!;)

Photogenic...not so photogenic
Secretly coveting this kid's toy plane

There's always that one friend!...
...and little brother;)
Great seeing you guys!

This sister started a new chapter in her life! She's now working at Lamplighter Ministries!
Got some pictures with her the night before she left

Memories From March

Hello all! We're back again! Man, what a busy month! Several birthdays, fun events, farm life, and everyday happenings! Shall we begin? This month literally started out with Norah turning 11! Here's just a few of her birthday photos!  This year, Norah requested a doughnut cake! Two doughnuts a person! Let's just say we all felt horrible that night. Loading more pigs up  Isaiah still doesn't know what to think of the sheep Izzy and Mr. Grumpy Gills  Katherine started riding a two-wheeler bike, with a little help from the training wheels! She could totally be a model!  Chick season has come around the corner...again! This will always be a favorite!  They make for good pets...when they're little anyway!  When you don't have a tractor and you need to seed the fields...  ...and chop broom grass down When Mom's not putting the food in your mouth fast enough  Meet the new bull calf, Demitri! ...

JULY

Hello everyone!!  Hope you all had a great July!! :) Ours included a 4th of July celebration, a brand new litter of 10 pigs, stocking up on hay for the winter months, a gun safety course we three older ones went through, a chicken butchering day, topped off with Ava Park fun with friends, a trip to Silver Dollar City, and creek fun!  Shall we begin? Our enthusiastic grill major for the 4th of July. I’m not sure about her, but the food was a 5+ rating! Can’t get more patriotic than this picture *wink* Whenever friends stop by for a visit and bring a cake,  there will be no complaints here!….Until everyone gets a sugar high. In honor of the 4th, I’ll share one of my favorite quotes: “Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom. Thank them both today.” Ended the night with a bang, like (I’m assuming) everyone else did! And the very next day,… 10 of ‘em born on the 5th....
