SURPRISE

Ok, here I am!

You will NEVER believe this.

Last night about 9:30 I was on the computer working on a new web site when a car pulled in the driveway.

Now we live out in the country down a gated driveway and don't know very many people, so my mind raced as to who it could be.

I hollered out to Mike who was in the living room watching t.v to go check and see who was here.

I walked into the hall and thats when I heard it.

The slow drunken Texas drawl that I hear in my nightmares.

It was him.

My fourth and fifth husband and Father of my beloved son... It was JACK!

I almost passed out and almost peed my pants all at the same time, but I knew I had to get to Wyatt before his Dad caught him by surprise too.

Wyatt did really for real almost pass out when he saw Jack standing in the hall.

His eyes rolled back to the inside of his head and his knees gave out underneath him.

We both just stood there shaking, sick to our stomach.

Anyway, he's here on his way to Alaska where he supposedly will spend the summer fishing.

Whatever.

He's leaving tomorrow.

All I know is there's a little village somewhere in Texas that right now is missing their idiot.

Unfortunately, their idiot is at MY house.

Happy Easter

Well the Easter Bunny came to our house, but I think he must have been sporting his "fowl" weather gear!
It is rainy, cold and windy here on the farm today, not feeling like Spring as much as it was a few days ago.
Wyatt still made a pretty good Easter haul though with the new Pokemon Platinum game, a basket full of candy and an egg hunt in the house.
My Mom will be here for dinner in an hour or so and then Mike will be going to work later this evening.
So, here's some Easter pic's for your viewing enjoyment!

Favor?

Can someone with photoshop do me a huge favor and create a seamless tile for me???

Thanking you kindly in advance :)

Amazing

I created an alter ego so I could follow Missy twice.

I forgot to sign out and have been commenting all over this morning as "Ginger."

So, if "Ginger" Commented on your blog today don't think it was some hot stranger, it was just me :)

BREAKING NEWS

We got a phone call a little bit ago.

It was Wyatt's Friend Leeann.

She said Maisy (the dog we rehomed last month) was at her house.

Her Mom was driving last night and saw a dog on the road and slowed down to make sure it was ok.

Traffic built up behind her and she figured the dog must live nearby and just got out of the yard and continued home.

This morning they woke up and the dog was at their house.

Leann said "that's Maisy!"

When they called it all sounded to crazy to be true, Maisy was living at least twelve miles from here.

How could she be all the way out here.

Leann's Mom said the dogs feet were sore and she was tired, but other than that she was ok .

Could it be?

Sheila loaded the dog in her car and headed over.

She pulled in the driveway and MAISY jumped out the unrolled window, rubbed up all over us and ran straight for the front door!

Amazing Maisy.

When Sheila stopped on the road, her car must have smelled familiar to Maisy and she followed the scent to their house figuring they were smart enough to get her the rest of the way home.

Right now, Maisy has a full belly and is curled up asleep at my feet and if it's true that everyone has a place in this world, I guess Maisy has shown us that her place is with us :)

Spring!

Our Maddy Daddy week was a huge success!

It's hard to believe how fast these kids grow up and how fast they change.

It seems like Maddy has gone from being a little girl to a young lady in seconds flat,

while Wyatt is still a goofy blabbering boy.

Mike finished the bathroom this week and it is FABULOUS!

This was his first "remodeling" job and he took it from a bathroom in peril to a shiny new room.

I am so proud of him :)

Spring has finally come to the farm! The trees are in bloom and the sun is shinning. It is going to be in the high 70's today and I couldn't be happier.

So, I am going outside to enjoy the day now.

We moved the baby ducks from the brooding room to the big coop yesterday and I need to go check them.

The donkeys are losing their winter coat and need a good brushing.

Pearl will want to tag along and inspect things on the outside of the barnyard.

life is good :)

Hmmmmm.....

Yesterday I made and passed along a lovely award about angels singing to my good friend Venom.
