Much Needed Update!!

Well, I decided that I should give an update as to what is going on in our lives. It seems that lately, we have been busy, busy! The weather has not been very co-operative and so it is hard to work outside. I have a lot of yard work that needs to be done. Hard to do when it is raining and snowing!

Justin is going strong. He has been working hard and been working with the horses. Our crazy horse is finally starting to calm down. He was actually able to get on him yesterday (with help from me and Chill!) We have still been taking care of our neighbor. Not ALL of the animals as in the previous post. He just has a few cows and horses. Our neighbor had surgery on his hand and so he can't do too much with it. We go over there about every night to make sure that he is doing ok. Justin has been going bear hunting and hasn't seen anything. Just a few deer and their cute babies!

I am doing ok. My boss at State Farm decided that it would be a good idea to lay me off, and so now I am looking for another job. Options up here are few and far between. You have to know somebody to be able to get a good job. I may just be working at the grocery store! Anything is better than nothing! I try to help Justin with the horses as much as possible. Sometimes I'm not very much help. I can hold stuff though!

Dunder is getting bigger and bigger. I need to get some current pictures of him. He is super hyper!! He has learned about the horses. He hasn't got kicked yet. He has just learned to stay away. He does like to eat their grain with them! Most of the horses are ok with him. Chill is still having a hard time. If Dunder is in the field with them, Chill will pin his ears back until we yell at him. I just don't think Chill likes us paying attention to somebody other than him!!

Like I said, the weather has not been very good. The day will start out nice, so we think that we are going to get a lot done, and then it starts blowing and raining. Not fun! Hopefully this afternoon will be nice because we have some fence that we need to fix.

Hope everything is going good with everyone down south. We miss and love you all!!
