Our Week In Photos - September 11th 2016

Our Week In Photos – September 11th 2016

This is three weeks of photos and I wish I had taken more! It was a whirl wind of busyness with the fair and starting school! The garden is exploding and I haven't had time to deal with it properly, and because we've been gone so much the fridge is overflowing with eggs and goat milk! I'm hoping next week finds us easing into our school year routine and having somewhat of a "schedule" again. I never get tired of fresh CLEAN eggs! The girls hard work paid off with their broiler ... continue reading...

City Cousin Comes To Visit

City Cousin Comes To Visit

Last week Jess's cousin Janine came and stayed with us for a few days. In the fifteen years that Jess and I have been married Janine has never been here to visit. The girls had met her, but they were to young to remember. This was so fun for them to meet their "new" cousin, and we all enjoyed her company while she was here!

Put That Thang Awaay!

Put That Thang Awaay!

It's almost hunting season so Jess thought this an appropriate time to share this fun story. I was a hunting guide for several seasons in south eastern Montana as a young man. In those days, between eighty and ninety hunters came through Doonan Gulch Outfitters every fall from all over the nation. Even some from other countries, like Canada (if that counts), Germany, Australia, even North Dakota... All spoke English in one form or another, though some had such thick accents I sometimes ... continue reading...

Our Week In Photos - August 19th 2016

Weather in the 90's and getting ready for the fair and school. That pretty much sums up life around here this week. Gloria has no idea she's in for a big adventure at the fair next week! Cabbage is coming along nicely. Every night God paints us a new picture... Loving the sunflowers! This rooster looks mean but he's pretty sweet.....so far! They are starting to feather out! This little girl has managed to melt all our hearts and is too smart for her ... continue reading...
