You teach your dogs to fetch, we teach our cows to pick their nose...... :)


I was out taking pictures of Hurricane, our Dexter Bull, so that we can try to sell him, and it wasn't until I had downloaded the pictures onto the computer and was looking at them, that I realized that he had his tounge up his nose. I couldn't get this shot again if I tried.

Aiden's 1st Black Eye

The other day, Aiden was playing with his trucks, and ran into the dining room chair, and it gave him his 1st Black eye. Poor little guy!!

He is getting so big. He is finally getting more teeth. His bottom right one finally came in last Wednesday (2/27) and it looks like the left one should be coming through in the next few days. He has been the slowest kid to get his teeth out of all 3 of them. He only has 4 on top and now 3 on bottom and he is 18 months old. I will be so glad when he has all his teeth, he drools as bad as a St. Bernard. Gotta love him though. :)

I just LOVE where we live.....

With views like this, how can you not LOVE it!!!


This is looking out my back door to the west. We have some of the most amazingly beautiful sunsets. I just love living here.

Totally out of topic, but my little Aiden man, told me tonight when going to bed, "Love you mom", in his cute little baby voice. It just melted my heart!! He is growing up way to fast!!

It begins.....

It seems that everyone and their dog has a blog of their own, and after starting one several times, I finally have finished putting our family blog together. So here it begins with my first post.

We are all getting spring fever, and can't wait for the mud to dry up, I will be especially exited when the mud is gone, with 2 kids (Aiden, wishes he was :) ), 2 dogs and a hubby, going in and out the back door a hundred times a day, it is impossible to keep the floors clean. And I have a hard time keeping them clean to start with, lol.

Aiden, loves to stand at the back windows and look out at the animals. I think his most favorite of all of them that we have is the cows. He loves the cows. Whenever he sees them, he will holler out a big "moo". It is so funny. When McKinley and Dallin got home from school today, we put his shoes and coat on and let him go out in the back with them, and he had a hayday!! We had to drag him in kicking and screaming, literally. :)


We got a new member of the family. Dallin got a new bunny for his birthday from Grandpa Jack & Grandma Sherry. He is so dang cute!! Solid black and so soft. His name is Blackjack. He fits right in with the rest of the animals on our little farm. lol.

That puts our total animal count up to 2 cows, our dexters, with one on the way, Hurricane and Patience. Patience is going to have a calf in April or beginning of May, we can't wait for that!! 2 dogs, Molly & Lilly, 3 Pygmy Goats, Millie, Ellie, Lucie, 4 cats, Kitty, Socks, Mittens & Milo, and 12 chickens, 2 roosters and 10 hens, and we are placing an order for about 20 more chickens here in the next few weeks. So with the additions of Blackjack we have a total of 24 animals. WooHoo!!! Anyone want to join us at our funny farm??
