• Thursday, April 3, 2008 - I'M MILKING!

But it's not my cow. We purchased 2 milk goats! One is 3 yrs old her name is Grace or Gracie depending on wether or not she is making me mad! LOL The other one is just a yr. and her name is Mercy. We also got 2 wethers and are waiting for two more. Once all 4 are here we will divi them up and let the kids name each of their own. These will be for Fair. We were able to move our pigs over here to our house. WHEW! in less than 48 hrs we became pig & goat farmers! Olivia is a natural. I cried the first day I had to try to milk. It was not going so well. The next milking Liv was there to help and she was AWESOME! She can strip those goats out like no one else around here. I am enjoying them but enjoying the time with my sweet girl moreI also have a camera that works now so I will be posting pics soon I hope.

I had down loaded some old ones into my photobucket account but can't seem to get them to post. A red X is all that comes up when I do it. Got any suggestions? We had wonderful Wednesday at chuch tonight. I have started helping the teens with the worship time. The lesson was very poignant. It made me ponder. I hope what I heard will change my daily life. I get so caught up in the day to day I forget where I am going. I so appreciated a friends blog today with a quote from Ann of Green Gables about fresh starts and new days.

We got some more snow during sring break so that put  a little damper on my spring planting and outdoor clean up. Late April and May I think are suppose to be more consistantly nice. We will see.

It is late so I better go for now. Blessings,
Alaina
