Happenings......

   Oh blogging.....I just haven't found the time for it in recent months.  We have been busy with our business and the kids "farm"  and with remodeling projects on our house (so we can sell eventually) and just general everyday life.  

    The kids "farm"  is 20 acres that we lease to run cows on.  Part of our lease agreement is that we fix the fences and do the upkeep on it in exchange for a discounted price.  We don't mind this and actually enjoy it....it is just very time consuming considering this pasture hasn't had anything done to any of it's fences in 20 yrs.  :)   We have came a long ways and the kids now have 5 momma cows 5 calves and a bull.......  Progress.

    We have been doing some projects around the house.  When we moved here 5 yrs ago, it was only supposed to be for a year or less and we would get something bigger.  With job changes and economy issues, money got tight and we have ended up staying here....on 1 acre in a double wide trailer.  Don't get me wrong, it is home.  Every time I drive up to it...I think "home sweet home"  but we are at the point where we are able to get something bigger and get our babies back to country living....in order to sell this place though, we have to fix the wear and tear that 5 yrs of kids has done to it.  We have started on outside stuff...re-painting, new porches, fence work...etc.  It is all worth it, but very time consuming and doesn't leave much time for fun stuff like blogging. 

     Our school year is wrapping up and I think this year we may actually get to take a summer break! :)  We still do Math and Reading through the summer but only a day or so a week and not very intensive...and of course everyday living... but our History, Science and Language Arts will be done by the end of next week.  

    Hopefully, I can start blogging again and find some interesting things to blog about ;) 

Blessings
