We had a great weekend despite the rain.... Our Moving/Yard Sale was great yesterday.... We made over $110.... The stuff that is left, I have a guy coming to pick up tomorrow.... In the evening we were invited over to Jeff & Deb's for supper.... We had to take the chickens over anyhow, so we agreed.... It was a great time....
Today we slept in a little, then relaxed ALL morning.... in the afternoon, I took the kids shopping.... It was myself, Darren, Tony, Nikki, Amy, Julie, & Chelsea.... We went to the Volunteers of America, a Halloween costume store, Wendy's for lunch & Wal~Mart.... A great time.... Those kids.... laugh, laugh.....
This week will be a busy one.... All of us getting ready to move.... The boys met with their landlord last night, & paid the first months rent.... this Friday they will give the security deposit & move in.... Next week we will move.... I can't wait....
So, I'm off to enjoy the rest of my evening.... We are watching the Amazing Race Season Premiere.... Have a Great Week....

Cattle are gone....
We are officially bored this morning.... no animals to feed..... all that's left is the chickens (they'll be going tomorrow), then of course the cats, dog, & 2 birds....
We will spend the next 2 weeks cleaning the barn & chicken coops out.... cleaning out the garage.... and getting ready for our moving sale.... then the 1st week of October we should be moving....
The boys should be moved into their place by then.....
So many changes at 1 time.... not sure I can handle all of this.... LOL....
Anyhow.... Darren turned 18 last week.... we had a great night out.... we took him to Red Lobster, then to WalMart.... Tuesday, TJ turned 8.... we went over for her birthday supper.... Wednesday & Thursday I believe we stayed home..... Friday we went out with Chad & Jess, Dale, & Kevin.... had a great time.... Saturday was Colton's birthday party, hard to believe that little boy will be 6 tomorrow.... Yesterday, all the cattle left.... that was work in itself.....
Today, I have the basics as far as cleaning & laundry are concerned.... then after Colton goes to school, I have to run to the bank, Kreider's Mill, & Blain Supply..... I also have phone calls to make (gotta get this fuel oil tank filled, & need tire prices).... this evening I have to run to Landisburg to meet Lori & pay off my Blazer.....
So anyhow.... I'm off to get laundry started....

We had some rain.....
Good Sunday evening..... It has been a great weekend.....
Yesterday, we got RAIN.... it was the remnants of "Hanna"..... Scott worked all day.... the boys all did their own thing.... I had the house almost all to myself.... I did my housework, then settled in and finished the book I was reading.... I had lots of time "left" until Scott was to come, so I lazied on the couch & watched a movie..... till it was over I went to feed the steer, and moved Bear to the barn (his dog house was full of water from the rain.....).... After Scott came home, we headed off to Shermans Dale to Chad & Jessica's..... Had a great time..... Chili for supper, birthday cake after that (it was her sisters birthday).....
Today, we slept in a little..... while Scott was still getting around, I went to the barn, started laundry, & loaded the dishwasher..... I then made Scott's breakfast (oatmeal & coffee)..... he read his newspaper.... Around 11, we headed out to Jeff & Deb's..... Scott helped Jeff with more chicken coop building (by the end of the week, we should be able to move chickens in).... I helped with various things.... Deb & I cleaned the car port (only to bring out Halloween decorations for the party).... made supper; ribs, chicken breast, potatoes, & cantaloupe.....
Now we are home relaxing, watching Ice Road Truckers (one of our favorite shows)......
Tomorrow is Darren's 18th birthday..... I know, it's hard to believe.... we are taking him out to supper @ Red Lobster..... he's excited.....
Well until next time.... Make it a great one......

A lot has happened....
Well lets see since I last updated.....
I've been busy canning tomatoes & pickles.... I am officially done with that.... thank goodness....
Colton started school last week.... He's such a big boy.... I've tried to upload the pics, but for some reason, I can't get it done....
There's good news on the house search..... Scott & I found a place.... It's not a farm, but that's ok.... We are selling off all the animals.... by October, we should be able to start moving.... It's a small, cute 2 bedroom cottage on 1.75 acres.... we will be buying it....
As for the boys.... they will be moving on their own.... Can you imagine? My boys.... so called ADULTS..... LOL.... they've found a nice house, 3 bedroom place.... it will be a rent to own.... I am working hard to get things together for them.... I think by the time their ready to move in, I should have everything they need to make a "home"....
So anyhow.... September is here.... can you believe it..... In 3 days my baby will be 18.... it's so hard to imagine Darren being legal as an adult.... ugh, who allows these kids to grow up? I don't like it.... In 3 weeks, Scott & I will be celebrating our 10th anniversary..... again, hard to believe.....
Anyhow, back to today..... I have to head to the barn (Scott had to be to work early...).... then I have dishes, laundry, bird cages, cat box, bathroom, & I HAVE to put laundry away....
So I'm off to get the day started.... Have a great one.... It's FRIDAY!!!!
