Been a Busy Week Here!

   We have had quite a week here and it's so hard to believe that it's the end of May already! Hannah and I had a lovely visit with Andy and my sister and of course our time there passed way too quickly too I do not envy all those millions of people living in Toronto though, yikes!! If I had to drive in that traffic all the time, my stress level would be through the roof!!

   I worked on Friday and I'm off until Thursday of this week. On Saturday, we all went yard saling and came home with some good bargains on stuff for the farm. Rakes, shovels, a gas can and a couple of screens that will adjust to fit the old windows in this farm house. I came home with some beautifully delicate doilies too that someone had worked hard to make and I got them for a steal I love old stuff like that and they will look perfect under the old wooden table in our dining room that used to belong to gramma. The rest of the day was spent cleaning animals...    lol, yes we have a myriad of animals in the house as well as out, and then cleaning bedrooms.

   On Sunday we made the trek to the city, which is a half hour away so Colton could spend his birthday money that was burning a hole in his pocket, lol! We stopped at the park and ate lunch courtesy of McDonald's purchased with some free coupons that I had won on the radio. Once home we were a little concerned about a noise coming from the rear of the van but seeing as how the trip to town is short we took the van back to town where the kids and I enjoyed a free family movie shown on the last Sunday of the month courtesy of the funeral home in town. I had been looking forward to seeing 'Home on the Range' the animated Disney movie but was a little dissappointed in it. Not as funny as it could have been I thought! Well we stopped at McDonald's yet again this time for their sundae treats and now the sound in the back of the van was a little too noisy to be ignored!! Oh no, what was it now?? But I called Mike and him and a friend came to check it out, only to find that a something or other had come loose in the wheel well and it was easily fixed. Thank goodness!!

And after all of this I forgot to tell of the new colt that was born here early Saturday morning. He is gorgeous and it is a beautiful sight indeed to watch the new little foals running in the field with their mommies close behind, never letting them get too far away.
