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!

Izzy's 12 Year Old Pictures

Now that Isabelle has been 12 for a month now, I finally got around to getting her pictures done! This post will be short and sweet and a big long one will be coming soon (hopefully)!

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! ...

Catching Up

Well, I thought I would start doing one post at the beginning of the month about the previous one, but its clear (at least to me) that it doesn't work to well. At least I don't like the way it was working out. I like doing smaller posts more often then one large post less often. Its just my style. So I am waiting no longer to share this photos from the first half of this month! Its amazing to think about all that has happened this month already. Its been pretty busy. Well first of all, like every year, the month started out with Norah's birthday!  Izzy got her 9 year old photos. I think this one is my favorite. This year, mom and some of my little siblings did something different and hung pictures around the the dining and living area from ultrasound pictures of her to recent pictures of her. It was a pretty neat idea!  Yes, you could say we do things pretty fancy when its someone's birthday  Mom working on the cake  'Wow! Your nine...
