A few Pics

Seems our moisture around here is showing up
in the form of
Golf ball size hail.
ICK
This is from a few weeks ago.  We sat down to eat supper,
heard a racket.  Looked out our patio doors
and this is what we saw in the neighbors yard.
Hail.  Falling like someone was on the roof
dumping out golf balls, but they were bouncing
like ping pong balls!




It was fairly warm out, so they were melting quickly.
There was hail of all sizes as you can see.
My yard was nearly white!


Speaking of moisture...there is none.
For Resurrection Sunday, we went to church
with my folks and spent the day with them.
My dad has been hauling water for several weeks now
to his cows. 

This red limosine sweetie didn't look very appreciative
of the water we were bringing her.  Probably because
Dad brought a whole tribe of us to the pasture.
His cows are a bit skittish when he shows up with
4 grandsons(of which, 2 are dressed like army men), 1 son-in-law, and a daughter!

Dad and JB

ZB
Growing up too fast.
Can't believe he only has
2 weeks of school left.
Then my boy is going to
High School.(sad face)

CB
The army man.
He and my nephew were securing the area/road
that we travel to water the cows.
{smile}
It's about a 1/4 mile from the house.
My boys just LOVE being out in the country.
It makes me happy too.  Reminds me
of my youth and how much fun I had.

Well, I must go. 
Have a wonderful Sunday and a Blessed week friends.

wow hauling water...that's a lot of hastle. yuck.

about your question. a customer contacted me and told me she saw my cuff pictures on a store's facebook page (all the way in TN). they were promoting cuffs they were getting ready to sell. i had to write them and ask them to remove them from their site, which they did and apologized. i'm sure they thought i'd never find out. small world!
