Thursday, February 18, 2016 Rain or snow is in the forecast for today. I prefer white actually. ❄️ I have 2 online classes that I’ve fallen behind in so today will be catch up day for me. I’d love to start clearing out the barn but … Continued
Wednesday, February 17, 2016 Well it’s always exciting when I see the first baby kick inside it’s mom and I saw it yesterday! It was Lola who had the active little kicker. We’re expecting almost balmy temps today so it will be a perfect day to sit out with the … Continued
