Happy Halloween! then there were 4, I'm finished with the 30 page atrocity, it's my fun day!

Happy Halloween! Last year I posted a gruesome Halloween story for your enjoyment. This year I am posting a gruesome Halloween picture at the bottom of this blog that will chill you to your bones. Bwahahahahahaha! Happy Haunting!




Daisy aka Jessica


Freckles
******************************
I must think I'm in a competition to come up with the longest blog title lately. Anyhow, we sold another puppy last night. So Daisy May nee Jessica, Jr. and Freckles have new homes. We only got $300 for Freckles, but that is okay. They are 8 weeks on Sunday so we need to sell them ASAP. We have another guy that may be interested but we haven't heard back from him yet so he may not be anymore.
Yesterday I had a marathon session of working on my 30 page paper and I FINISHED IT! This is a huge weight off my shoulders. I feel like I can make it through the rest of the semester without having a mental breakdown now. I will have to proof read of course but that's no big deal. So as a reward, I'm doing whatever I want today. NO homework in any shape or form. My brain needs a break.
So this past Sunday we found out Aaron's sister is pregnant. She just got married about 2 weeks ago and she's about 2 months pregnant. They have no insurance so my heart goes out to them. Travis is supposed to be eligible for insurance at his work next month so hopefully that will work out. If not, I don't know what she is going to do. They are going to have a hard time paying for a kid no matter what they do. She is due about a month and a half after me.
Speaking of pregnancy...I have been having a very strange, I think, pregnancy, symptom. I have been so sensitive to touch lately. Like pressure. For example, last night when we went to bed Aaron was had his elbow resting on my back right below my neck, at least I was 100% positive it was his elbow digging into me until I reached back and discovered that it was only the back of his hand resting very lightly on my back. I haven't read anything about being sensitive to touch during pregnancy so I don't know if that is what it is due to or something else. Kind of strange.
So QUESTION OF THE DAY....What is everyone's favorite Halloween candy? Mine is Starbursts. That's not really a Halloween candy, but I pretty much end up only eating them around Halloween time.

Happy Halloween!

Yikes, that pic is scary!! I pretty much don't like to be touched when I am trying to sleep while pregnant, any other time I love cuddling, but not while being prego, weird, I know. I think that especially early pregnancy makes you hypersensitive on every sensory level. So, enjoy the good parts of that, because that does go away after awhile. Have fun at the Halloween party.

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...

Raccoons

We've been plagued with the nasty devils this week. We accidentally left dog food on the porch one night. Fortunately, Aaron saw the raccoon sneaking a snack before he headed to bed. We chased it off but woke up to find one of our chickens had been it's victim. I have been super careful to make sure no food has been left out but the raccoon has been back. I heard a terrible confrontation in the woods on Tuesday night between a raccoon and SOMETHING in the woods. The SOMETHING whimpered as the raccoon hissed and spit. I hope that whatever the SOMETHING was it is ok. It sounded like a dog so I am wondering if it was a coyote vs. raccoon showdown. One of our cats stays out all the time and I thought at first it was her. I was out banging a bucket with a stick and yelling trying to get the raccoon to leave. Turns out the cat was on the deck cool as a cucumber. We had been letting Whiskers and kittens stay outside as well but now we go through the nightly routine of putting them in ...
