“Wear some clothes today, eh?” was the recommendation of my husband this morning. Before your imagination runs amok, it was his way of telling Victoria and I that it was cold outside and that warm clothing was the order of the day. So, layered up with fleece-lined jeans and chinks, t-shirt, flannel shirt, sweatshirt, gloves,…

Internet’s Out!
Due to technical difficulties (You have to love those when you blog on a daily basis.) Mom has no internet tonight! Alas, she will be unable to join you. Have no fear, she will return tomorrow. If not, I’ll try to pacify you with something from me. (This is Victoria by the way.) Hopefully, you’ll…
Just to Make You Three Happy
All righty, folks… These will be the last wedding photos I plan on posting… I thought I’d throw out the fun ones… My boys LOVE to do this for some unknown male reason… they stare vacantly into space, mouths slack, often not looking at the camera. A Dumb and Dumber there’s-nobody-home version that has ruined…
Just to Make You Too Happy
More! My kids, Daniel, Victoria, Brandon. I was so worried her dress would hang on the wooden benches… it was a narrow aisle! Let us Laugh… She loves him… Matt’s father D. married them. His best (little) man was N., Matt’s nephew. Matt’s brother, Z. also stood for him. Let us Believe in One Another……
Just to Make You Happy
For those of you who’ve been waiting… and waiting… Here are a few more wedding photos! I like how Victoria is in a different position than expected… My family with our new member… Just for kicks and giggles… I’ll post a few more tomorrow!
Showerhouse Experience
Please indulge me with one last wedding story… Most weddings have something that goes “wrong”… at mine, my sister left Vernon’s ring behind… since it didn’t fit and needed resized… she thought we weren’t using it. That was easily remedied since I was married at my parents’ house and the ring was just upstairs. Victoria’s…
Cake!
I’m sorry… I have a few more wedding stories I want to share… don’t worry, the big trail to the mountain pasture is coming up soon, and you’ll get lots of cowboying stories then… but I wanted to share the cakes with you! It was such a soap opera… the falling cakes… the oven that…
Wedding Photos
The wedding was absolutely amazing… the only “bad” part was the shower/changing setting beforehand, but that’s an entire story by itself! The cakes turned out well, and all our fears about them sliding around and/or melting on the trip up through the mountain’s switchbacks were overblown. We had cans of mosquito fogger on hand, various…
May I Present…
Sorry about last night… The cakes weren’t done until 1 am. <whew> Then I went to bed. I woke up at 4:15 am when Vernon woke up… and although I laid there another hour, sleep wouldn’t return and I decided to get an early start on this special day. Tonight it’s still early, but I…
Crunch Time
I have made two trips to Worland… yesterday and today… that’s enough for a while. Yesterday was a much needed trip for groceries and a trip to the vet for Victoria’s little Jazz. He’s been in pain, shaking his head, and as we had guessed, he had multiple cheat grass heads in his ears. Poor…
This Is Getting Exciting!
In between the cowboying and the haying and the renovating/welding/perfataping/painting/lawnmowing visits to the Mills Place… We are working on a wedding. We have eight days. Eight. Yup. Crunch time has arrived. Today we returned to the St. Christopher’s Chapel in the Big Horns to lay out decorations, see how they look, and prepare them ahead…
