Long Blog Silence.........

So I can definitely say that there has been a long silence on this blog. I can guarantee that it's not because there has been nothing going on,because ,in fact there has been much going on and this is the reason that I haven't blogged.
We have all been busy with individual activities (fishing,playing catch,jumping on the trampoline and so on). Also, because it has finally warmed up we can go outside and get a couple things done out there. Such as semi-cleaning out the chicken coop, cleaning out the south side of the goat barn where we keep canning jars and some other storage stuff, and preparing for our huge garden! (Well,it will be a huge garden if it doesn't get completely washed out by all the rain!)
At this point right now I am sitting on the bed in a hotel in Hays,KS. We got the privilege of being able to come with dad for a business trip. Oh! the joys of being homeschooled! :) The drive was only about 5 hours, but that's long enough to drive a person nuts when you are squished in a Mountaineer with 5 other people(actually 6 because my uncle came with us,he does the same stuff at work as my dad)and everyone's luggage. Praise the Lord though, our wonderful neighbor let us borrow a luggage holder that attaches to the rear bumper of the vehicle so alllll the luggage was not inside the car with us!
Macy forgot to bring her digital camera so I can't get any pictures on the blog. Sorry!Right now, though, the only thing I'm worried about it what Nick is going to do to me.......He shot a hair tie at me so I picked it up and shot it at him. I aimed right for his neck, most definitely not expecting to hit him their ( if at all) and- oh my goodness! I did!!! That normally would not happen and on the rare occasion that it does he usually gets back at me pretty good!
Well, it's time to go.....I've been rambling. I will hopefully get some pictures taken and a new post up here soon!

Well, it's been awhile since I last posted! There hasn't been much going on around here, amazingly! The snow is all starting to melt and now we have a very large amount of mud everywhere! I am welcoming the mud though with a small smile because the weather is starting to warm up bit by bit and I just heard the news of a thunderstorm scheduled to roll in this weekend! Yay! I love thunderstorms and they are a wonderful sign of spring! (Although it will add to the mud collection.)
This picture really has nothing to do with the coming of spring or thunderstorms, or melting snow,it's just a cute picture of our wonderful dog named Ruby!
Well that's all for now. I shall return though! Over and out!
