After the Rain


It has been a few days since I have written anything. There are simply too many things to get done in 24 hours. :-) Can you relate?

In the last week the Good Lord has blessed us with almost 3" of rain! Praise God, now we may have pasture and the wheat crop has gotten a much needed boost for the coming season. And while all of this is so very much appreciated; it also requires more work around the barn.
Gaylord started cleaning out the horse pens last night. 3/4 of one pen was under water. Not a good situation for them to be in. The horses were placed into other pastures/pens until this is dried up so there is no worry of their health.

Still waiting for Freckles to have her foal. She was due Saturday and moved into the barn because of the weather. Still no baby as of yet. hmmmm

Our youngest son Lee will be here this coming week before he heads to Korea for the next year. Please remember to lift our Service Men and Women up in prayer for the sacrifices they make for our freedom.

Our oldest son Daniel placed second in the Skills USA College Competition for Communication Technology on Friday. Yea! This means that if the first place winner does not elect to go to the National Competition this summer, Daniel will be able to take part. Very exciting!

We are very proud of both of them.

Now I am off to additional cleaning, preparation, and bookwork. Ah the life of a ranch!

Be sure to leave a question, comment or note and let us know how you are doing - we would love to hear from you!

Blessings,

Bonnie
