Thankful for another day!

Yesterday Hannah C. and I went on a horse back ride with the draft horses, it was a lot of fun. But on the way home a UPS truck went by, incase you have not ever heard a UPS truck on a gravel road doing 30 mph, it sounds like thunder. Any-way, my horse came unglued, right before the truck got to us she turned and ran right in front of it! All I could see was the grill of that truck coming at me! She then turned and bolted down the road, and that made Hannah's horse bolt too. The driver thought he would help, so he started driving behind us, but that just made us run faster!! When I finally got us stopped, I jumped off to cacth my breath.
The driver asked us if we were okay, he said 'I slowed down to 30, but I guess I still spooked them'. I thought, no duhhhhhhh. If my horse had turned in front of him a seccend sooner, I would have been a hood ornament. Any-way, we finally got home in one piece!!!!

Never put off til tomorrow, what you can do today!!!

Today Dad and I worked at the barn all day. We got our green house all done.

Dad is putting the plastic on the end here.

T.P. went down there with us. I let him just run around for a while, but I got so tired of him sucking on my legs that, I put him in with the others goats.

Another picture of putting plastic on the end.

Roxie chilling in the sun.

The end is finally on!!

The rest of the plastic and the doors are on.

Plants in the green house.

After all that, I came back to the house and made a cheese cake for tomorrow!!!

A great idea!!

Today I was at Hobby Lobby, and I was struck in head with a idea. I am going to use recipe cards for letters and cards!!! So I went and asked someone if they had any, "no, sorry". So I went to Micheal's and got four differnt packages and each package has 20 cards, for only 1$ a package!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also got some envelopes that are ivory and the same size at Wal-Mart!

The happenings of today!

Mom and I went to town today, when we left the house, Ricky and Belle were enjoying the sunshine!!

This is what the moon looked like when I went to feed my goats.
But pictures do not do it justice.

Dad was building our green house.

This is some growth in our hot house!! (Lettuce)

(onions)

(Don't remember)

(Ditto)

This is from standing in the door!!
                      The reason for pink walls, is that, that is the color of the foam broad we used as walls!!!

Seed update!

Here I am planting seeds one at a time!!! It is a lot of fun!!(Sometimes)

This is some of the flats we planted.

And these are the two flats of lettuce that came up. This afternoon when we got home from town we stoped by there (the hot house) to show Mom our progress, the heater was not on and it was very cold in there!!!! Dad turned the heater on and it caught fire!!! So he threw it outside in the snow!!! Any-way, he had to go back into town to buy a heater!!! We think our lettuce and maybe our onions have died!! No pain no gain.

Attention Everyone!!!!

T.P. update!

Hello everyone,
I am growing to be big and strong. I am getting very tired of being locked up in my cage, they (the aliens) call it the bathroom. So to tell the aliens, that have me locked up, that I want out, I yell a lot. I get yelled at sometimes, but over all I have a pretty good life. I also get fed three times a day, yippee!!!! Well I better go.

                                                      Baaaaa for now,
                                                                     T.P.

Snow Again!!

It is snowing again. I just went to the barn to feed, and to check on the hot house. Three flats of onions and two flats of lettuce has come up since Sunday afternoon!!!!! It is so exciting.

Pictures of T.P.

T.P. has arrived!!! He is living in my bathroom!! And yes he is named after toilet paper. The reason I named him that was because the first time I met him he was constipated because he ate some toilet paper!!! So I just started thinking of him as T.P.!!! By the way, if anyone reading this, that lives in Luther, has some extra newspaper, we really need some!!! As you can see in the first picture, I think I got more of his milk on the two of us, then in his belly!!!!!!
