OuR HapPeNinGs

We have just been moving along through our day to days. We were able to have Flat Stanley come visit the ranch. He was able to meet cows, our horse, Dotty, Long John, see the cows be fed and meet the cowboy Mike with his dog Max. This is a picture of the boys with Flat Stanley before we sent him back to Utah and Payton's Second Grade Class.

On Sunday we went to White Sulphur Springs to see Keri and her family. We went to church with their quaint little twig (not quite a full branch, but very cool). Then we had dinner, music and games with them. Little Luke was sad at one point, so Uncle Mike decided to pick him up and make it better. One look and you can probably tell what Mike's discovery was, he was STINKY! I captured this at the right moment.

Today was very cold. A snowy, blustery day as a certain Bear might say. For those of us who witness these kind of days from the inside, we are lucky. Mike worked all day out in the bitter stuff and this is him driving by the house (of course I wasn't going outside to take this!) with a load of loose hay for the hungry cows! Let me just brag for him, it is quite a substantial load of hay. He kind of takes "pride" in how full he can stack the wagons.

Flat Stanley guess I need to find out more about him. We need a big wagon of hay like that think Mike will drive one down for us?
