Some catch up pics

 Here are some pictures of stuff we've done this fall. We found this great place called Cedar Preserve. It is $3 to get in! It has a great picninc are, 10 miles of hiking trails and a butterfly garden. Will definitely be going back. This is the trail we hiked. With a stroller. .5 miles. KILLER.
 Thank goodness we had lots of many chocolate bars to keep us happy.
 Hiking in Texas. Yep.
 Rare selfie. Usie? Whatever.
 If you look closely in the top of the tree you can see the hawk that was sitting there as we passed by on an evening walk.
 98 degrees mid Oct. Bleh. It's FINALLY feeling much more fallish 'round here.
 On bench at Cedar Preserve. Sp
 Spider we saw that had babies on it's back...or as Kelsay calls it "a 'poder". 😂
 Picnic area
 Feeding ducks and swans by library
 Kelsay preferred eating the duck food herself.
 Maddy got new KAFOs.
 The fair! They had a lot of new stuff this year. This is the children"s board walk.




 Maddy won a bear in a free game. The guy running the booth let her play free.
 Cotton Candy!
 Instead of the bird show they had wild west pet palooza. They had dogs, cats and birds trained to do all kinds of tricks. I kept thinking how much Brittany would love this show. It was way better than the dog show they have every year.
 We rode the ferris wheel. Kelsay hated it and Maddy loved it.

 Corn dogs!
Aaron and I got to go watch  a Rangers game without kids. Epic!

Animal Happenings

 It looks like the last update I posted on animals was about going to the sale barn and getting cows. As a reminder we got a calf/cow pair and a "weaned" calf: Chloe, Midnight, and Mooey. Chloe and midnight are some kind of black angus mix and midnight is part Holstein. Midnight and Mooey will eventually be our meat cows. We hope to AI Chloe sometime in the near future for another calf. Midnight, her calf pictured below (much littler in the pic than he is now) is a very good looking steer. He could go to the fair if he wanted. This is a picture of him getting out of his fence and coming in the yard. He still gets out from time to time. Having a mama calf keeps both the steers in line though. They are much better about not getting crazy, unlike some other steers we could name from the past, but won't. We ended up having to feed quite a bit of hay this winter as we had snow cover from November to end of March. We got our barn built about January and began collecting more ...

Getaway to Ticks Bend....I Mean Beavers Bend State Park

 Back in April, we decided we needed to do a short family getaway after the semester was over. The last time we'd been on vacation just to vacation (not going to see family in CO) was when we went to San Antonio when Maddy was 3 months old. We found Beavers Bend State Park close to Broken Bow, OK and decided to go there. We booked a cabin in the state park and eagerly awaited the day we could take off for our getaway. We left on Sunday afternoon and stayed through Tuesday afternoon. It was short, but so fun and relaxing. We had no computer and no cell phones while we were up there. We just got to enjoy being around each other and the beautiful scenery.  We built a fire and roasted some marshmallows. Also popped some jiffy pop. Aaron had never done one of those before.  This is a 100 year old cabin they had at the visitor center. I like the mud chinking ( I think that's what it's called). A couple named Comma and Mabel lived in the cabin when the CCC was building t...

We Need Your Prayers

Many of you have probably heard all ready, but Aaron and I got some devastating news today. Our baby will probably not survive outside the womb. They did an amneostasis this afternoon to test for chromasomal defects, which is what they think it is right now. I know I am spelling everything wrong so I hope what I write makes enough sense for everyone to understand what is going on. The specialist we went to see feels that it is triploidy or triamias 18. Those may not be the right names but they are two of the three chromasomal defects. The other is down's syndrome. He did not feel that it was down's. The other two defects are fatal so if we carry the baby to term it will not live but for a few days or hours if one of the defects above is the problem. We will know in 2days. If it is not one of those then we will have to go to a cardiologist and a genetic counselor. The baby had clubbed hands and feel and it's heart is not formed correctly and is not in the right place. Becau...
