Sharing the joys of living a simple life on our little farm in Arlington, Washington.

Just random things....
This is a wonderful picture of Frank's terrific mom, Dolores or Dee. She was visiting us and her daughter Jean (Frank's sister) took this shot which I just love. She is so happy here!! We'll be driving to Wisconsin this July to go visit her as she isn't doing any big traveling anymore. Who could blame her at 90 years old! I just love my mother-in-law and am so blessed to have her in my life.
We are about a week from putting the boys out on their other pasture. Once that happens, the chores will get much easier around here! No more coming into the barn every night to poop it up!! There is a nice pasture shelter in their field for those rainy days. It also means that they will be totally sustained by this pasture and no longer need hay. I will take them a little grain with their vitamins every evening and check them over, but they will be happy to be out 24/7. The donkeys stay home on our pasture as they would not be able to keep their girlish figures on that kind of grass. The minis, as usual, stay on their dry lot...those poor things!
I always get such a chuckle out of goofy answers kids give on tests, and this one is no exception. However, by this time of the year the jokes start wearing a little thin, so Spring Break hits just at the right time. We got smart and realized that we could use some sunny and hot weather, so we got a condo near Palm Springs for a few days...so we're OFF!! Kacey will be staying here taking care of everybody, and we'll be floating along the lazy river and eating some real mexican food. Can't wait! We're leaving tomorrow, so hasta la vista baby!!
