Things are finally getting back to normal for us. Gail has been back to work for a week now and doing alright. He is pretty sore, but doesn't complain TOO much. He is stressed about getting stuff done around here. He got the chimney cleaned out so at least we could start a fire if we wanted to, we got the propane tank filled up, our cattle are home (much to Annie's dismay), and the calves are treated for the winter. We still have to build two fences by the first of October. I have no idea how it will get accomplished, but I just hope it does.
Speaking of October, I'm so ready that I can't wait. If fact I couldn't wait. In August and September not much goes on to decorate for. So this weekend I gave in and decorated for Halloween. Just call me Wal-Mart - pushing the holidays. I brought out the fiber-optic witch that sings and dances, the pumpkin that lights up, my Halloween window clings, and I put up my orange and purple lights around the front window. I just love to sit around and look at a decorated house. Before I got pregnant I liked for everything to say the same (except for Christmas of course), but now I love to get my house all decorated. In fact, I've had to get labeled boxes to keep everything in so I can keep track of it all. I'll try to put up pics later.
For now, her are some recent pics of Lydia. Enjoy...
