“BIG RED” clip~~

I was able to catch a brief clip of Matthew playing around with his “NEW” toy.  He has quickly grasped how to control the mower. Please remember that this video was recorded just a few short days after my last procedure so parts of it are kinda’ side-ways.  I apologize in advance.

BIG RED

I love that boy!!!

“HAMMOCK” Sunday~~

Well..for the 2 people that actually ready my blog you know that I have been really wanting to get in my hammock!! However~~the good ol’ back wouldn’t allow it until this SUNDAY!!! YES!!!  I love to lay in this outdoor bed where I can look at the sky and clouds and whatever else may be out that day.  I may even get a little bird dooodooo if I am not really vigilant about bird watching.  LOL!! So..I was so thrilled about the hammock situation I grabbed Rob’s phone and snapped a few shots.  Rob’s like that~~always prepared~~his book bag that he carries to work with him could save the world.  You think I am kidding..my beautiful 2 friends out there..I can assure you I am not!!!  So…just ignore the background because it is a dirty mess but I don’t care! I am alive and I am in my hammock!!

As you can see I was on my side using Rob as my support.  He is good like that~~he also supports me in everything that I do.  I LOVE him..can you tell??

Well…you didn’t think that I would be without my baby girl did you?? I sure hope not because she is more attached to me now than ever.

This was the view.  Don’t you think that it was a beautiful day? I sure did.  Thanks~~Rob for the hammock and putting it up…and oh yeah—for putting up with me tooooo!!

Now~~if you have been here at our farm—your well aware that this water is not really supposed to be there!!! This is only the 2nd time that I can remember that the water has gotten this high!!! So…for those of you that know us~~this is pretty darn exciting bizness!
SanDee and High Water 03-12-11 010 
Finally~~he is getting with the program! I have been waiting on you for several hours this morning. Really not—but for SanDee 15 mints is waaaaay tooooo long to wait on food!!!

Look at all that hay flying around~~WOW!! No wonder he is doing this!!!! Ok—I am just gonna’ say that I didn’t raise him to do this!!! I think maybe his father did???  I am just sayin’!!!
SanDee and High Water 03-12-11 026
I am sure that he just has some bits of hay that have gotten trapped into his nostril hairs~not a boooger!!! For-heaven-sakes-to-betzzz!!
SanDee and High Water 03-12-11 032
The pups are so happy to see their master~~you know I really don’t like that word!!! I would rather say their puppy buddy!!! Yeah…yeah that’s what he is!!! “PUPPY BUDDY”
SanDee and High Water 03-12-11 034
Cooper doesn’t want him to leave~~after all that is his “PUPPY BUDDY”!!
SanDee and High Water 03-12-11 035
Chief looks totally devastated that he didn’t stick around for a good ol’ “PUPPY BUDDY” lick on the cheek.
SanDee and High Water 03-12-11 038
There pics are of the road that runs in front of our home!! I don’t think that I need to tell ya’ that the water is not supposed to be over the road! I just thought I should inform ya’ of that because of all the terrible things going on in the world right now—this kinda’ seems trivial and minor and maybe even normal!!!

Have I Told You?

Have I..I am sure that I have…well…let me just tell ya’ all again!  It snows every year on my b-day!! Last year 2010 was the first year for many many years that it has not been snowing.  Well~~Mother Nature didn’t let me down.  It was actually one day after my b-day but who's counting the days!!! I mean really?? It was a within the 24 hour period of my birth so I am gonna’ count it as my day!!!
