Workin' Cows

On Friday we helped work my in-laws cattle.

The bull, waiting his turn!

It was a misty, yucky day but it went really well....the advantage was the homemade soup dinner that my mother-in-law made.

Friends!

Just a few pictures of my weekend with my friends from High School!Courtney....our DD. She learned some very interesting things!

Weekend

What a weekend!

I had so much fun hanging out with my "old" high school buds, laughing drinking, eating and reminiscing! I have pictures but I just haven't had tome to download them yet. I will post some when I get a chance.

"Old" Friends

Three of my "old" friends from High School are coming to spend the weekend with me! Jodi, Michelle and Michele and of course me....we used to do everything together in high school and then we all went are separate ways and have not gotten together over the years like we should have. Now with Facebook, we have all reconnected and are getting together this weekend for some fun times!

We have the weekend planned out...thanks to Michelle, our planner! Tonight they all arrive at my home. We plan on touring the new school here (the school we all went to was condemned and a new one was built). We are going to a few cemeteries...the one that Michelle's mom and my dad are buried in and another one that a classmate is buried in. After that, we will watch the Twins game, while drinking some wine and eating lots of goodies and reminiscing! Tomorrow we are having brunch at my home, may hit a craft fair and an auction and then are meeting some other classmates for supper tomorrow night. Courtney is going to be our DD and we are going to visit some of the bars in the small towns around here that we used to hang out in.

Gonna be a great time...can't wait!

YEAH!

The sun is shining today!

What a great day....thank you God!

Rain

We have had rain, rain, and more rain! 3+ inches of rain since last Thursday (I quit asking what the rain gauge said on Sunday)! It let up for awhile today and the sun actually did shine for a few moments here and there throughout the day. Hopefully the sun will make an appearance for the whole day here pretty soon so we can work on getting the crops out...gonna be a hectic harvest season for sure now!

Madness

The madness came to a screeching halt before it even began. It started raining yesterday morning and so far we have had about 3 inches of rain. No harvesting here for a little while.
