Friday on the homestead

Woke up to a sunny and warm morning. I am anxious for fall but learning to cherish everyday and just enjoy being in the moment. I think that comes with turning 40. Yes I will be 40 this month. Several things are on my mind and prayer list.
Carson- 4th grader in school with Abigail who is experiencing kidney failure due to possible e.coli infection.
Chad - son in college ( he is doing great though)
Hurricane victims in Texas
church at Eagleville
upcoming election
my family

Life is a series of ups and downs. But through it all God is always good.

I am home today just cleaning and doing around the farm. I'm letting my chickens out in their yard. We had to put them up because they were getting out and we were afraid something would get the younger ones. I miss seeing them pecking around though........ So today I will give them free range and try to do a better job of putting them up every night. I have to go the store and get chicken feed today. I love having them.
We may go to the State Fair tomorrow. I hope the weather cooperates. My favorite thing to do is look at the livestock exhibits. Well I better get going or I will not get anything accomplished.
Love, Tina

We let most of our chickens run. It got to be a pain catching them after they got out of the barn! Now we only have a few in the barn, most run. Poor Carson! To have such health problems at a young age! Please keep us up to dat on him. We love the fair too. We are upset though are fair is cutting way back on the animals. We did not even go last year do the that. This is the last year our fair will have horses for a few years. The fair is redoing the race track. Enjoy turning 40. Age is just a number. God Bless, mj
