I apologize for not being a very good "blogger" as of late. I haven't had really that much to write about.

We have been cutting and stacking alot of wood lately, so we won't have to do it this summer when it is hot. It's hard work, but I don't mind it much. It's just nice to be outside. Wren, our lone goat, came out and helped us for a while. After an hour he just got in the way. He kept jumping up and narrowly escaped getting "split" himself.

Can you believe it is March. I love March, not only are there a bunch of birthdays (Bailey, Chet, Me and Jessica B), but spring starts too. I have heard the frogs for the last 2 nights!

Ash Wednesday was last week. Instead of giving something up, which is usually food for me, I have decided to read a book. It is a 40 day journey called "The Jesus Creed" It is pretty good.

I hope you are all having a great day!

I guess we do think the same. I love the picture. =)
I'm really happy it's March too. Even though it's 35 degrees with snow on the ground...spring is a comin! As is someone's special little day...

32, my gosh. It seems so old. Oh well, C'est la vie. Your birthday is on Easter this year, that would be so neat.

I do love it when it falls on Easter. It's just more exciting. =) And yours is on the Vernal Equinox!

Yay Marjean....you are reading!!! Good for you! Maybe this will be a new thing for you that you love!

Frogs.....one of my absolute favorite things to hear!! I heard them start up the other night and I love it! It means spring is coming! I told Grayson to listen and now everytime we get out of the car at night he mentions it. I love that!

Yay March birthdays!!

I love Scott's expression with the goat...he looks a little perturbed!

I don't know if the reading thing will catch on, but I am trying. I just don't make time to read.
I am excited it is March, any big plans for your B-day Jessica?? Nothing much here.
Kara you'll have a Happy Easter Birthday!

Bailey was the lucky girl to find the Easter Egg hidden in a "fresh pile". He tends to do that every year!
