Boys & their toys...

Awhile back Bo found this tractor for a few hundred bucks. He's been working on it, outside in the rain and wind and heat and dirt. He finally has it running and operational. So many projects around here depend on this little tractor.


Here's Bo and Wes working on our road. I think they just really wanted to have a tractor war!

The quilt is finished!

It took me many months to complete this project, but it actually only took about 10 hours of work. This is my first quilt; there's plenty of mistakes, but didn't turn out too bad.

Mitered corner in the binding.

The backing looks like suede.
It's so soft and comfortable! I don't get to keep it though. I'm giving it to a very special friend who shall remain un-named...for now.

Wordless Wednesday

Not so wordless, but oh well...enjoy.
Newest batch of baby chicks.

You might be a redneck if...

Hey Mom! It's hot and you just filled the horse tank. Since it's clean can I cool off in there?
Wow, it's cold!
Let's see if Trouble can swim. She hates it, cried the whole 2 seconds she was in the water!
Rowdy wasn't as upset, but was ready to get out. Aussies & Border Collies are not really water dogs.
Ahhhh...
Rowdy & Trouble after their swim. They are sleeping soundly as I type!

Babies on the farm

Trouble is a back sleeper.
Rowdy doesn't get too far from the food bowl.
Apparently chewing on my shoes wore them out.
Mama and chicks.
