Visitor in the Quiet
As many people moan the loss of togetherness with family and friends for tomorrow’s Easter holiday, you might want to look a little closer. There may just be a visitor in the quiet you just never noticed before. May we all treasure our blessings.
#TBT: From Big Sis to Li’l Momma, v.2.0
This was first posted April 17, 2009. Three weeks ago, when the puppies were born, Dally was a confused soul.She wasn’t sure what happened, but she wanted to be part of it.

Wordless Wednesday – “Bolt Bin”
This one might be a challenge! Put this jigsaw puzzle together HERE.
Many Faces
We weighed steers this afternoon. Jaxon helped. The entire time. His hands got sore from pulling the chute gate rope. He has to hang on the thing to lift it. He’s quite the worker! He’s also a pretty happy worker, even if these photos don’t catch him smiling. Just bad timing on my part. Behold….

The softness and beauty the snow would normally lend to the land now lay eerily upon shapes unknown. They…
