Howdy-
Kinda hard
to believe October is here and gone already. Rodney was kept busy with school
and getting ready to go to the National FFA convention in Louisville, KY. He
took 11 students and 4 other adults and they flew out of Bozeman early Tuesday
(28th) morning. The Parli Pro team competed and came in 29th. Tonight they're
in Nashville, TN. They went to the Opry this evening and are planning on
seeing downtown Nashville in the morning. They fly out tomorrow (2nd) about 5
and get into Bozeman late. We're ready for Daddy to be home! For MEA a couple
weeks ago we went to Missoula, as that was where Rodney's teacher convention
stuff was. Spent a couple nights there and was reminded again why we don't
live in a big city. This little corner of the world works great for us. Spent
an evening with Logan and Elissa. A house of boys and a house of girls
collided...and had a great time. Last Friday we worked cows; vaccinating and
preg checking. Nicole was sure watching Rodney for the first few cows that he
preg checked. Hannah remembers it from years previously, but it was a
refresher for Nicole. The life of a farm kid. Other than that, I don't think
anything else happened except for the daily living. Janell is a growing and a
changing. She's into blowing bubbles at the moment. And she's just about ready
to full-out laugh; we've been getting some giggles outta her. For the most
part, she's been sleeping through the night for the past couple of weeks.
Which is nice. :) Not much else has changed. Nicole and Hannah are still
amazing us with their skills. :) Nicole has really gotten into doing puzzles
and Hannah likes to write her letters, asking how to spell words. Can't think
of anything else to add, so...
'Til next
time-
Rodney,
Amanda, Hannah, Nicole and Janell
