Life on the farm!

These two joined the family this spring. Flickr (on the left) is a 6 year old gelding, and Taffy (on the right) is a 15 year old mare. They're starting to settle in now and are getting used to us. Raquel is using Taffy as her horse for 4H, and the horse is behaving wonderfully for her.

The heifers were following me where ever I went with the camera. It was pretty cute, but I couldn't capture all 3 of them looking at me. This one was checking me out through the fence!

Somedays we wonder why we "farm"...but I would be limited to wonderful photo opportunities if it weren't for these critters...lol...



92 years young!

On May 2nd we celebrated my grandma's 92nd birthday!

In honor of parents.

Here's a thought to ponder:
No other success in life - not being President, or being wealthy, or going to college, or writing a book, or anything else - comes up to the success of the man or woman who can feel that they have done their duty and that their children and grandchildren rise up and call them blessed.President Theodore Roosevelt
