Such a happy day!

Rodney went hunting and look who he found! He had 3 happy girls! :)

Diesel, our momma cat, has been MIA for months. I think it was because of the tomcat around here, but after we fixed him it was only a few days later when Diesel showed up (towards the end of November). And she's been hanging around ever since. It probably doesn't hurt that Hannah likes to let her in every day and lets her finish her cereal and milk. :) And it looks like Diesel is getting a tummy on her...so maybe she came home to have her babies. Either way, we are happy she's back!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We stayed home for Thanksgiving this year. Rodney's folks are in Wisconsin and it's too short of a holiday to go to MN. First time with cooking Thanksgiving dinner...I say it turned out pretty good considering! :) Now, I won't have to cook much for the next few days!

JD Ag Expo (Nov. 15-17)

This year the girls and I went along with Rodney and the FFA kids to Billings for the John Deere Ag Expo. Quite a few contests are put on during the few days. The livestock team placed 1 (with 3 kids placing in the top 10), parli pro team placed 3, mechanics placed 5 and I can't remember what the other teams did. Both girls did great (naps sure help!).

Snow!

A couple weeks ago, we had us our 2nd winter storm. We usually get a little snow now and then, but it doesn't amount to much or stick around very long. This time we got at least 6 inches over the course of a couple days and it stayed for about a week. It's so pretty when it's nice and white.

packed her around for quite a while that day before bringing her back
