Spring Cleanup

Spring has sprung and it is time for a little spring cleanup around the farm.  Logan and I spent a Saturday morning cleaning up around the yard.  As I was taking the 4-wheeler around the farm picking up garbage and house scraps, Josie decided she wanted to go for a little ride!  She isn't spoiled at all....


Farm Girl Tip #135: If you have a dog and you are doing yard work, you may have to give your dog a ride because she will want to help!

The Bulls

A few weeks back, the farm gained a new member...Billy the Bull.  Logan and I went out to see Billy, and all of the other bulls, after we ate supper.  We went out and talked to the bulls for quite some time when both Logan and I found some friends.  My friend is #67, but he did not want to be touched.  He only wanted to follow me around and stare at me because I am so cute!


Logan's friend on the other hand felt like he needed some lovin'.  Logan went right up to him and started petting and scratching him.  He absolutely LOVED it! I wish my friend would have let me pet him!!


A few days after we gave the bulls some lovin', they got a new piece of jewelry! They all look pretty sharp with their new earrings made by yours truly!


Farm Girl Tip #134: Every once in a while you will need to give you bulls some love and give them new jewelry.  They like new bling!





Spring Break

Towards the end of March, my mom and I took a little spring break vaca to sunny Florida! We did a whole lot of nothing, including sitting by the pool until 2:00, shopping, and sitting by the pool until it closed. While mom and I were basking in the sun, my dad and Chet went out to the farm and were put to work!  It was kind of a reverse psychology deal...we vacation, they work! HA!

BUT...The best part of the whole vacation was when I was sitting by the pool, soaking in the warm sun, getting my tan on, when I accepted a 1st grade teaching position! Definitely a great way to start my spring break! 




Farm Girl Tip #133: It is great to live on a farm because there is always work to be done and there are always family members who want to help! But, it is even better to be on vacation so you can get away from working! :)
